Unicable setup
The Unicable system
You can use a Unicable system to connect the antenna dish to
the TV. A Unicable system uses one cable to connect the
satellite dish to all satellite receivers in its system. Unicable is
typically used in apartment buildings. If you use a Unicable
system, the TV will ask you to assign a user band number and
corresponding frequency during the installation. You can install 1
or 2 satellites with Unicable on this TV.
