VeCOAX ULTRA+ Instructions

Quick Installation

IF you are merging the VeCOAX ULTRA+
with other coaxial TV channels,

 FIRST find out the FREE CHANNELS
not used on your TV channel list
so channels will not jam each other.

Look on your TV channel list
for UNUSED channel numbers.
You will need to set the Ultra Channels on these free channels numbers.
If you are not merging any other channel, disregard this.

1) The unit supports one-click setup by recalling a factory preset.

2) if you are installing multiple VeCOAX ULTRA+ over the same cable simply recall a DIFFERENT PRESET per each unit so these will not conflict over the same coaxial cable

3) At first, connect the ULTRA + DIRECTLY to a test reference TV with a short piece of coaxial cable

4) You do not need to connect any HDMI input at this stages

5) On the VeCOAX ULTRA + display navigate to PRESET MENU then select the TV STANDARD you need an the PRESET # for this unit

5A) PRESET > Select 1 for the first VeCOAX ULTRA+ unit

PLEASE MAKE SURE TO SELECT A DIFFERENT PRESET NUMBER PER EACH UNIT
1 / 2 / 3 / 4 ....

5B) SELECT THE STANDARD:

  • ATSC > for USA ANTENNA AIR ATSC TV mode.

6) Rescan your TV's digital channel list to locate the VeCOAX ULTRA + Channels on your Reference Test TV.
Per Each channel You should see a color-bars test pattern like the one below:
IF your test TV cannot find your VeCOAX ULTRA+ channels check the following:
a) Your TV is scanning the DIGITAL CHANNELS and not only analog TV channels
b) Your TV is scanning ATSC AIR channels IF you set ATSC MODE on the VeCOAX
c) Your TV is scanning CABLE channels IF you set the J.83 MODE on the VeCOAX
d) Move the VeCOAX ULTRA+ directly to the TV and use a short coaxial cable to connect direct, then start over from STEP #1 here above
As a comparison, try testing with a different TV brand/model.
7) Disconnect the VeCOAX ULTRA+ from your Test Reference TV
8) Reconnect the TV to its regular coaxial cable.
9) Move the VeCOAX ULTRA+ to the first Coaxial junction box splitter near the TV
Connect the VeCOAX to the splitter so its VeCOAX ULTRA+ channel signal reaches all TVs through the splitter.
See the diagram below:
10) Turn On the VeCOAX ULTRA+ connected to the coaxial splitter
11) Verify that you can still see the VeCOAX ULTRA+ color bars signal / Channels.
- If yes — rescan all other TVs to find the VeCOAX ULTRA+ channel, following the same procedure used on the first TV.
- if no, Troubleshoot coaxial splitters →

12) Disconnect the VeCOAX ULTRA+ from this splitter and connect to the next ones, one by one, repeating the same test from STEP #11
14) Connect The VeCOAX ULTRA+ to the Main TV Coaxial Splitter, from where you serve all TVs and check again STEP #11
15) Connect your HDMI sources to the VeCOAX ULTRA+ HDMI inputs and watch your HDMI source as channel on all your TVs
When a valid HDMI source is connected (480/576/720/1080 i/p at 50/60 fps), the channel LED on the VeCOAX ULTRA+ display will turn green and an antenna icon will indicate the active broadcast channel.
If you experience problems with an HDMI source, Troubleshoot HDMI sources →


IMPORTANT:  About Closed Captioning
Closed captioning is embedded in the HDMI signal. To display captions on all TVs, enable closed captioning on your HDMI source device.
If your source has a yellow RCA (CVBS composite) output, you can connect it to the VeCOAX ULTRA+ RCA input. This allows the closed-caption data to be encoded so viewers can toggle captions on/off using their TV remote.
