Mounting The Antenna Unit; System Cable Connections - Epak-Tv Basic Line Tv44 Handbuch

Example of template:
Bottom seen from below:
the drilling templates: 9" = KVH, 5" = Orbiscan,
Before mounting, drill 4 holes ø = 8,4 mm into the bottom, refering to your preferred drilling
template.
Important: Please tell us with your order, what drilling template will be used and how thick is the
mounting ground, that the correct screws are delivered with the antenna.
☛ If the antenna unit is mounted on the cabin roof (not device carrier or separate mounting
plates) close all drillings with waterproof sealing material to avoid any water penetrating!

2. 8 Mounting the antenna unit

The antenna unit has to be mounted on a solid and steady surface. Take care that the cable lengths
are sufficient, the antenna unit must have an unobstructed view to the satellite and there must be
no interference fields (especially mobile communication antennas) nearby.
Place the antenna unit on the pre-drilled holes and fasten it with the included screws and washers.
The screws have to be screwed in from below through the mounting surface into the radome.
☛ Close all drillings with waterproof sealing material to avoid any water penetrating!

2. 9 System cable connections

☛ Break the contact of the circuit on which you are working to avoid short circuit the system.
• The antenna cable must be connected to the control unit and the antenna unit.
• The power supply cable to the power distributor and the antenna unit.
• The receiver cable to the control unit and the receiver.
See system overview and illustration details in Appendix F and at the end of the manual.
Lead the cable through the drilled holes and seal it with waterproof sealing material. Furthermore,
drip loops should precede the entry point from the exterior to avoid any water penetrating, see
below illustration:
