Turning On the System

The TracVision 4 system is easy to use. Antenna unit initialization
and satellite acquisition are completely automatic.

To use the TracVision 4 system, follow the steps below.

1. Turn on the IRD and the television. (

Refer to your

IRD user’s manual for complete operating
instructions for the IRD.)

2. Turn on the antenna using the switchplate’s On/Off

switch.

3. Avoid turning the vessel for 60 seconds after turning

on the antenna to allow the antenna gyro to initialize
properly.

To minimize the time it takes the
antenna to acquire the satellite, do
not change the channel during the
startup process or cable unwrap.
