Installing Two IRDs and TVs
(North American Systems Only)
To connect a second TV and IRD to the TracVision S3 system, you
must connect a second RF cable to the Antenna Unit baseplate
connector labeled RF2. The other end of the RF cable should be
run down into the vehicle and connected directly to the second
IRD. Each IRD/TV pair can operate independently of the other,
allowing different viewers to watch different channels.

KVH has provided an F-connector
for use with the TracVision S3. This
connector specifically requires the
Augat Snap ‘n Seal Crimp/Strip
Tool, part number IT1000.
If you do not have this tool, you will
need to purchase a silicone-filled,
weatherproof F-connector (Radio
Shack part number 278-236 or
equivalent) to use instead.
