This offers a general explanation of how to install the IDU and satellite receiver properly to 

the inside of vehicle connecting with coaxial cable. 

 

1. The Coaxial cable is routed from the antenna to the IDU inside the vehicle.  

2. After Once deciding where to place the IDU and satellite receiver, make sure that both 

units are placed in a dry and protected area. 

3. The IDU and satellite receiver should be placed away from any heat source and in an 

area with proper ventilation. 

4. Ensure that there are at least 3cm of space around both units for ventilation and 

connection of cables.  

Do not stack the units on top of each other.

 

5. The following describes the basic wiring configurations for DP250PMS antenna.  

     

  Connect the Coaxial cable to WSTA-DP250PMS  antenna port on the back of IDU 

     

  Connect one end of the supplied coaxial cable to the receiver port on the back 

of the IDU 

     

  Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the satellite receiver 

  The second receiver you can directly connect the coaxial cable from antenna to the 

satellite receiver.
