How do I configure the system?...
Your Raymarine Satellite TV system can be connected with multiple IRDs at
the same time to receive pictures in different cabins offering the maximum
choice of channels. The following section shows the different combinations
available and their connections. In all cases the ACU must be connected to
the power/data connector of the antenna base plate.
Systems with 2RF connector baseplate

Single IRD

This is the basic method for connecting your Raymarine Satellite TV system
.
The RF cable from the antenna base plate should be connected to ‘LNB’,
‘ANT’ or ‘Satellite In’ on the rear panel of the IRD.
CAUTION

In-line fuse

If you do not have a breaker in the power circuit, an in-line 5 A
quick blow fuse should be fitted to the positive (whi te) lead of
the power cable.
