•
RxA- and RxA+-
screw terminals, which are
defined as the NMEA A connection is used to
connect to the ships Gyro Compass (Heading). The
NMEA0183 compliant inputs are then connected
via a 9 pin ribbon cable to the ACU’s J2 NMEA
communications port. A GPS (Latitude and
Longitude) input may also be connected, but is not
required because there is a GPS device already
installed in your antenna..
NOTE:
If you connect a
ships GPS to the terminal mounting strip, you
MUST disconnect the GPS antenna on the
antenna pedestal.
•
RxB- and RxB+ screw terminals, which are defined
as the NMEA B connection is used to connect to
the ships Gyro Compass (Heading). The
NMEA0183 compliant inputs are then connected
via a 9 pin ribbon cable to the ACU’s J2 NMEA
communications port. A GPS (Latitude and
Longitude) input may also be connected, but is not
required because there is a GPS device already
installed in your antenna.

3.9. Power-Up
Verify that all shipping straps and restrains have been removed prior to energizing the antenna.
When all equipment has been installed, turn ACU Power and Antenna power ON. The ACU will initially sequentially
display:
“SEA TEL – MASTER and DAC-2202 VER 6.xx” followed by,
“SEA TEL – RCVR and SCPC VER 5.xx” followed by,
“SEA TEL – IO MOD and COMMIF VER 1.xx” followed by,
“SEA TEL – REMOTE and INITIALIZING”. After initialization, the bottom line of the remote display will display
the antenna model number and the software version from the PCU.
Energize and check the other Below Decks Equipment to verify that all the equipment is operating. You will need to
assure that the ACU is setup correctly and that the antenna acquires the correct satellite before you will be able to
completely check all the below decks equipment for proper operation.
