Installation of the dual antenna solution

B.2.2 Installation

To install the dual antennas, do as follows:

1. Install the master ADU, BDU, the RX combiner and the VSAT modem.
2. Install the slave ADU, BDU and the TX splitter.
3. Provide vessel heading input to the master BDU and slave BDU.
4. Connect the cables.
