Wiring Two TracVision Receivers
•
A two-way splitter is provided in the Second
Receiver Kit (KVH part number 02-1340). The
splitter has a frequency range of 40-2150 MHz
with one port DC passive.
•
In this diagram, receiver #1 is the master receiver.
Receiver #1 must be turned on in order to use
receiver #2.
•
The receiver and remote control provided in the
second receiver kit are programmed for ID code
“002.” This avoids interference or “cross talk”
between remotes. In other words, the remote for
the second receiver will only operate receiver #2,
and not receiver #1.
•
If you order a replacement remote control (KVH
part number 19-0335), and you want to use it to
operate the second receiver, you will need to
change the remote’s ID code to “002.” Refer to the
instructions in
Section 3-4, “Controlling Multiple
Receivers,” on page 3.11
.
•
Both receiver #1 and receiver #2 must be activated
for DIRECTV service. To activate the second
receiver under the same account, call KVH’s
Activation Department at 866-551-8004. Be sure to
tell the representative that you need to add a
second receiver to your account.
•
The Antenna status light on receiver #2 will
remain red at all times. This is normal. Only
receiver #1, which is connected directly to the
antenna, can monitor antenna status.
