پیژندنه
The Televes DATBOSS LR Mix is a state-of-the-art long-range over-the-air TV antenna designed to optimize the reception of television signals. It automatically adapts its gain in real time to ensure the optimum level of signal is delivered at all times. This antenna is specifically engineered for US broadcast frequencies, offering improved gain and range over previous models. It includes integrated 5G signal filtering above 608 MHz and provides independent amplification for both VHF and UHF bands. The DAT BOSS LR Mix is capable of receiving weak distant signals while preventing overload from strong signals, making it ideal for challenging long-range and fringe reception scenarios.
This manual provides detailed instructions for the assembly, installation, operation, and maintenance of your Televes DATBOSS LR Mix antenna. Please read this manual thoroughly before proceeding with installation to ensure safe and optimal performance.

د خوندیتوب معلومات
Always prioritize safety during installation and maintenance. Failure to follow these safety guidelines may result in injury or damage to property.
- بریښنایی خوندیتوب: Never install the antenna near power lines. Contact with power lines can be fatal. If the antenna or mast should fall, it could come into contact with power lines.
- د هوا شرایط: Do not install or adjust the antenna during lightning storms, high winds, or other severe weather conditions.
- مستحکم نصب کول: Ensure the antenna is securely mounted to a stable structure that can withstand wind and other environmental factors.
- شخصي محافظتي تجهیزات (PPE): Wear appropriate safety gear, including gloves, safety glasses, and non-slip footwear, when working on the antenna.
- د زینې خوندیتوب: Use a sturdy ladder and ensure it is properly secured before climbing. Have someone spot you if possible.
- د وسیلې سمبالول: Use tools correctly and ensure they are in good working condition.
تنظیم او نصب کول
1. Antenna Assembly
The DATBOSS LR Mix antenna requires assembly before installation. Refer to the detailed assembly instructions provided in the separate assembly guide or the official Televes assembly video for step-by-step visual guidance. Ensure all elements are securely fastened according to the instructions.

۴.۱. د نصبولو ځای غوره کول
The ideal location for your antenna is outdoors, as high as possible, and with a clear line of sight to broadcast towers. Obstructions like trees, buildings, and hills can significantly reduce signal strength. Use online tools (e.g., AntennaWeb.org, FCC DTV Reception Maps) to identify the direction of local broadcast towers and the types of signals (UHF/VHF) available in your area.
- Rooftop Mounting: Provides the best line of sight and signal reception. Requires proper grounding and secure mounting.
- Attic Mounting: Can be an option if outdoor mounting is not feasible, but signal strength may be reduced due to building materials.
- Mast/Pole Mounting: Ensure the mast is sturdy and properly secured to prevent movement in wind.

3. Antenna Orientation
Once mounted, point the antenna towards the primary broadcast towers in your area. Slight adjustments may be necessary to optimize reception for all desired channels. The DATBOSS LR Mix is a directional antenna, meaning it performs best when pointed directly at the signal source.
4. د انتن سره نښلول
- Connect a coaxial cable from the antenna's output to the input of the included UL-listed power supply.
- Connect one or both outputs of the power supply to your TV(s) or distribution amplifier using coaxial cables.
- Plug the power supply into a standard electrical outlet. The TForce amplifier within the antenna requires power from this supply to function.
The integrated TForce amplifier automatically adjusts gain for optimal signal levels, and the built-in FM and 5G filters help prevent interference from other signals.
عملیاتي لارښوونې
1. Scanning for Channels
After connecting the antenna and power supply, you must perform a channel scan on your television. This process allows your TV to detect and save available over-the-air channels.
- Access your TV's menu (usually via the "Menu" or "Settings" button on your remote).
- Navigate to the "Channel Setup," "Antenna Setup," or "Tuner" section.
- Select "Antenna" or "Air" as the input source (not "Cable").
- Choose the "Auto Program," "Auto Scan," or "Channel Scan" option.
- Allow the TV to complete the scan. This may take several minutes.
Once the scan is complete, your TV should display the number of channels found. You can then browse through the channels using your TV remote.
2. Signal Optimization
The DATBOSS LR Mix features a TForce amplifier with automatic gain control. This intelligent system continuously adjusts the signal level to provide optimal reception, preventing both signal loss from weak signals and overload from strong signals. No manual adjustment of the amplifier is typically required.
If you experience issues with specific channels, try making small, incremental adjustments to the antenna's direction and then re-scan for channels. Sometimes, even a slight change in orientation can significantly improve reception.
ساتنه
The Televes DATBOSS LR Mix antenna is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. However, periodic checks can help ensure its longevity and optimal performance.
- کلنۍ معاینه: At least once a year, visually inspect the antenna, mounting hardware, and coaxial cables for any signs of wear, corrosion, or damage. Check for loose connections.
- پاکول: If the antenna accumulates excessive dirt, dust, or debris, gently clean it with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or high-pressure water. Ensure the antenna is dry before re-applying power.
- د هوا زیانونه: After severe weather events (e.g., heavy storms, strong winds), inspect the antenna for any physical damage or misalignment.
- د کیبل بشپړتیا: Ensure coaxial cables are not kinked, frayed, or exposed to excessive UV radiation, which can degrade their performance. Replace damaged cables promptly.
Always disconnect power to the antenna's power supply before performing any maintenance or inspection.
