INSTALLATION
Before proceeding with the installation, please
respect the following guidelines:
- please remember that the best position for the
satellite TV antenna is in the middle of the boat,
in the lowest possible position.
- minimize obstruction. The antenna requires a
clear view of the sky in order to receive satellite
TV signals. The fewer the obstacles, the better
the system operation. Any foreign body (flags,
antennas, radar antennas, sailboat masts,
cranes, bridges, etc.) between the antenna and
the satellite obstructs the signal and prevents
correct receipt.
- make sure that the mounting surface is wide
enough for the antenna base to be installed.
- Mount the antenna in a perfect horizontal posi-
tion. If the surface on which the antenna is
installed in not flat, use the optional stainless
steel support for inclination adjustment (code
V9500).
- make sure that the mounting surface is resist-
ant and rigid enough to support the weight of
the antenna and the vibrations which could
occur.
- do not install the antenna near speakers or
magnetic sources. In case it is not possible, it is
necessary to compensate the magnetic
source, paying attention not to interfere with
the on-board compass.
- Fix the antenna firmly to the surface.
