Follow these steps to connect the antenna to the

belowdecks equipment.

NOTE: System wiring diagrams are provided in

Appendix F on page 31.

a. If you are connecting two receivers to the

TracVision system, decide which receiver

will be the primary receiver. The primary

receiver controls satellite selection.

NOTE: The secondary receiver will only be able to

select a channel carried on the satellite that is

currently selected on the primary receiver.

b. Connect the RF1 cable from the antenna to

the “Satellite In” jack on the primary receiver

(see Figure 18).

c. If you are connecting two receivers, connect

the RF2 cable from the antenna to the

“Satellite In” jack on the secondary receiver.

d. Connect the receiver(s) to the customer’s

television(s). Follow the instructions in the

receiver’s manual.

e. Connect the data/power cable from the

antenna to the “Output to Antenna” jack on

the MCU (see Figure 19). Do not overtighten

the connection; finger-tight is sufficient.

If you wish to connect three or more receivers

to the antenna, see Appendix B on page 23.

Be sure all receivers are grounded properly.

Connect a ground wire from the chassis of

each receiver to the MCU’s DC return. This

will ensure all system grounds are the same

potential.
