Installation

Installing unit on roof of vehicle —

Install in DRY conditions only!	!

IMPORTANT! Do not install this system

in the rain, or under any wet conditions. Mois- ture may affect electronics and void your warranty!

1.For best performance and to reduce signal ac- quisition time, park vehicle on a level surface; level the RV.

2.Select a level spot on your roof for installation.

7.Place the unit on the roof in its permanent loca- tion and mark around each base foot, Figure 4. (Make sure the rear base foot is PARALLEL to the center line of the coach and FACING to- wards BACK of vehicle!) See pg. 2.

UNIT BASE

WARNING: Level the base front to back and side to side. If base is not level the MV3500T may re- quire more time to locate the correct satellite or may not locate the correct satellite.

•Be sure no roof-mounted equipment is blocking the satellite “line of sight”, Fig. 3

•You will need to decide where the wires will enter the vehicle. A coax and a power wire (minimum 16 gauge) will need to be run into the vehicle.

WARNING: Many +12VDC sources can cause the unit to fail. Select a filtered source, preferably a dedi- cated line to the battery.

3.Remove dome. Place dome in safe spot to avoid damage. Place base on vehicle roof in the location selected.

4.Attach each mounting foot to base by securing with two 7/16” nylocks.

5.After selecting location for unit (see number 2), put the unit on the centerline of the vehicle.

REAR MOUNTING FOOT MUST BE PARALLEL WITH THE CENTER LINE OF VEHICLE. See pg. 4.

8.Clean roof area where the base feet will be attached to the roof. Do not erase your marks!

9.Put approved sealant in the areas marked for the base feet. Place base feet on top of the sealant and screw down with the (4) #10 screws (provided) for each foot.

10.After all base feet are secured to roof, put sealant around edge of feet and over screws. Replace base on screws and reinstall nut.
