4. Troubleshooting
There are a number of common issues that can affect the signal reception quality or the
operation of the antenna. The following sections address these issues and potentialso-
lutions.
1. Blown fuse
If the LED light of the power supply does not light up after switching on, please check
the power supply.
2. Low power
If the power cable to the antenna unit is more than 50 feet (15 m), the power levels can
decrease over the course of the cable, resulting in a voltage or current level at the an-
tenna unit that is too low to power the system Properly. The antenna Technical Manual
Provides detailed instructions for supplying adequate power to the antenna unit. Cont-
act your local dealer or service center for assistance.
3. Cable connection
Also, an incorrect cable connection may be the reason that the system is not functioning
properly. Check all cables and connections. Trained service personnel can assist you.
Contact your dealer.
4. Satellite signal blocked
Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other vessels, or equipment
on the vessel itself. Simply moving the vessel or obstruction will clear the signal.
5. Satellite coverage issue
The antenna will provide outstanding reception within the 18” (46 cm) antenna covera-
ge area for your satellite television service of choice. However, reception can be degra-
ded as you apProach the fringe coverage areas. Refer to your satellite television service
manual to check the viable coverage area for a18” (46 cm) antenna.
6. Radar interference
The energy levels radiated by radar units can overload the antenna’s front-end circuits.
Check with your installer to make certain that the antenna unit is in the optimal location
with regard to your radar unit.
7. Satellite Frequency Data changed
If some channels work while one or more other channels do not, or if the antenna is un-
able to find the satellite, the selected satellite’s frequency data may have changed. This
frequency data can be updated via the maintenance port. Contact your local dealer or
service center for assistance.
