One Generic (Non-A5/M3) Receiver
– M3 Marine Use Only
•
If you wish to connect a single generic (non-
A5/M3) receiver to the system, you will need a
Single AC Receiver Add-on Kit (KVH part
number 72-0182). This kit includes a splitter, a
single-output destacker, connecting cables, and
instructions.
•
The output of the TracVision antenna is a special
stacked signal, which the TracVision A5/M3 12V
receiver is configured to decode. However, all
generic (non-A5/M3) receivers are configured to
decode unstacked signals instead. Therefore, a
single-output destacker is needed to convert the
antenna’s stacked signal into an unstacked signal
that a generic (non-A5/M3) receiver can decode.
The TracVision M3 is compatible with all
new DIRECTV receiver models
manufactured today (when wired in the
configuration shown on the previous page).
Older receiver models may function
differently, however, and KVH does not
support their use.
