6. STM SatLink Terminal configuration
Before powering on the STM SatLink Terminal for the first time, ensure that the Tx coaxial cable from
the STM SatLink Terminal to the ODU is disconnected to avoid that incorrect and potentially damaging
signals are sent to the satellite. Follow all the procedures below when installing the STM SatLink
Terminal and lining up the ODU.
