IMPORTANT : The Easytune BD-11a is both unique and a technically advanced equipment. Familiarization of the product and
understanding of this documentation will ensure maximum benefit and enable one to realize fully its designed potential.
Main Features - Convenience, effective and ease of use are the main design criteria for this highly specialized
and uniquely featured BD-11a remote controlled outdoor rotating TV antenna. The built-in high gain active booster is built closest
to the point of signal reception to have maximum signal gain and minimum noise breakthrough. The futuristic design houses a
wideband directional Yagi array antenna which gives superb response over a wide range of VHF and UHF frequencies which are
essential for exceptional TV signal reception particularly in fringe coverage areas.
To complement on the superb signal reception, a remote controlled motorised turning mechanism is incorporated at the base of
the antenna to facilitate directional alignment to the transmitted signals. Through electronic and signal processing, electrical
power supplied to the booster, rotation motor and signal coming from the antenna, all goes through a single co-axial cable
which gives simplicity in installation and minimize or eliminate alteration to existing wiring.
IMPORTANT : In some caravans or mobile homes, the external and internal antenna connections may be fitted with a balun for
isolation and balancing of output impedances for basic antennas. In such cases, the BD-11a antenna cable should not be
connected through the caravan wall connections. The BD-11a antenna cable must therefore connect directly to the base unit
marked ANTENNA. Failure to do so may result in irreparable damage to the BD-11a antenna.
Refer Compatibility Section at the end of this manual for details.
WARNING : DO NOT CONNECT ANY OTHER ANTENNA EXCEPT THE BD-11a TO THE BASE UNIT ANTENNA CONNECTOR.
IRREPARABLE DAMAGE MAY RESULT AND WARRANTY VOID.
Outdoor - Installation
Locate a suitable location on the external caravan wall and permanently install the supplied brackets as suggested in Fig 1.
Assemble the antenna as illustrated. Make sure the yoke at the top of the telescopic mast is seated properly into the groves by
rotating with a gentle downward force. Secure the antenna head to the yoke by tightening the hand screws about 3⁄4 turn after
making contact with the yoke. Make sure there is about a forearm (40cm) length of slack coaxial cable for rotation. Screw on the
coaxial cable to the antenna by hand firmly, do not over tighten. The outdoor unit has two pairs of telescopic dipoles which can be
extended for improving VHF reception. For reception of only UHF or Digital signals, the telescopic dipoles can remain retracted.
Adjust the telescopic mast to the desired height by loosening the screw locking rings. Tighten the locking rings once the desired
height is reached. With the complete antenna assembly align the bottom of the telescopic mast with the lower mast bracket at a
slanting angle, then push the mast body in to the top clamp bracket and secure by gently tightening the hand screw. Do not force.
Mast will be held in place securely even with hand screw lightly tightened. Plug the antenna cable into the outside antenna wall
connector (refer compatibility section at the end of this manual) or straight into the back of the remote control base unit marked
