Important information
Introduction
This handbook contains an explanation of how to install, connect and maintain your Raymarine Satellite TV system with High Definition programming and is intended as a supplement to your Raymarine Satellite TV System Handbook supplied with your Satellite TV System.
The system uses a High Definition Antenna Control Unit (HD- ACU), which has a built in converter to enable you to watch High Definition programming from DirecTV, which is compatible with both Raymarine 45 and 60STV systems.
Your Raymarine Satellite TV system provides uninterrupted tele- vision access to hundreds of TV channels in all types of weather conditions.
On the open sea or at the dock, the Raymarine Satellite TV system automatically identifies, acquires and tracks compatible signals from all digital video broadcast (DVB) satellites.
However, no machine can perform its intended function unless installed, operated and maintained properly. Please carefully read and follow the recommended procedures contained in this handbook.
