Hello All,
I am the new owner of an 3185RL. In the cabinet over the bed next to the antenna amplifier, there is a cable sticking out of the wall. It has a 7 or 8 pin connector. Does anyone know what it might be?
Sounds like the control cable for a Winegard Trav'ler rooftop satellite dish. There's pre-wiring from the factor to make for a simpler installation of the dish.
Now for the next question. Having trouble getting cable TV to the living room tv. Got it to the TV in the bedroom. Is there any information on the Bnc connections?
Those are F connectors. 75 ohm system. BNC connectors are 50 ohm. There are generally two RF connectors for the TV. One is the Antenna/cable and the other would be from the UDC satellite. If you have the amplifier on as your picture shows, the cable signal will not get through. Turn it off by pressing the little black button.
Other than turning off the signal booster (push/push button and little LED), you shouldn't have to do anything special to get cable to the living room. In the living room, you will have to connect to the correct wall coax connector, if not already connected. And the TV may have to be set to Cable within its menus.
