Channel Master Antenna Rotor Installation Instructions

Remove the antenna from the mast by unbolting the U-clamps holding it.

Channel Master antenna rotator products enable you to point a television antenna at two or more separate broadcast mast locations. The kit includes two basic parts -- a drive unit for moving the antenna and a controller unit. There is also a remote control, cable power supply and fasteners. Installing a Channel Master rotator involves affixing the drive unit to the local mast, running cable and setting up the controller. After installation, you'll be able to control the local antenna from within your home.

Things You'll Need

• Channel Master kit
• Wrenches
• Compass
• Cable ties or tape

Instructions

1. Remove the antenna from the mast by unbolting the U-clamps holding it. Carefully lower the mast and rest it on the roof.

2. Install the drive unit onto the existing, grounded mast with two U-clamps, using the location where the antenna was installed. Re-attach the antenna by inserting it into the top of the rotator drive unit and point it south with a compass. Tighten the fastener. Make sure there's enough slack in the cable running between the television equipment and the antenna to allow for a full turn of the antenna.

3. Connect the cable that you will be running to the rotator controller unit. Open the cover on the drive unit and add an included weather-proofing grommet to the cable. Connect the green wire to Terminal 1, black to Terminal 2, red to Terminal 3 and run the cable down to the controller unit within the home. Secure it tightly at convenient spots, such as gutters, with tape or cable ties.

4. Connect the cable to the controller unit, and power the controller by plugging the AC adapter into it and the wall.

5. Press "Sync" and the rotator will turn a full 360 degrees and sync the antenna with the controller.
