Antenna Settings
With Band/Polarization Control set to
Master Receiver
(default
setting), the satellite signal output of the TV-Hub’s “Receiver” port is
the polarization and band that is currently selected by the master
receiver. This setting is recommended for most configurations and
ensures the antenna always receives a valid band/polarization on
which to track the satellite.
If you have a linear configuration with a multiswitch and one or more
IP AutoSwitches installed, KVH recommends that you set Band/
Polarization Control to
TV-Hub
. In this configuration, the TV-Hub
ignores the voltage/tone from the master receiver and outputs
whichever polarization/band corresponds to the voltage/tone that is
present on the coax cable connected to its “Receiver” port. This allows
the multiswitch to continue receiving all four combinations of band/
polarization from the antenna.
