TV system provides uninterrupted television access to hundreds of TV chan-
nels in all types of weather conditions.
Middle East
You cannot receive signals that have linear polarization on a system set up
for circular polarized signals or circular polarized signals on a system that is
set up for linear polarized signals. If your geographic location changes it
will be necessary to change the antenna low noise block (LNB) for one
appropriate to the area in which you are operating. You may also need to
change your IRD(s) and TV receivers. For full details of changing your
geographic area of operation refer to “Satellite coverage by geographic
location” on page 60
On the open sea or at the dock, the Raymarine Satellite TV system auto-
matically 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.

Installation
EMC installation guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry
standards for use in the recreational marine environment.
•
Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these
cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless
doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure
that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been
taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important
to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product.
Suppression Ferrite
If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be
removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be
reassembled in the same position. Always use the ferrites supplied by
Raymarine.
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC perfor-
mance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these
conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC
performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure
the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical
equipment.
Connections to other equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a
cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be
attached to the cable near to the Raymarine unit.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible:
•
Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
•
At least 3 ft. (1m) from any other equipment transmitting or
carrying radio signals. In the case of Single Side Band (SSB) radio,
the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2m).
•
More than 7 ft. (2m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam
can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below
the radiating element.
•
The equipment is supplied from a separate battery to that used for
engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V, and starter motor transients,
can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment,
but may cause the loss of some information and may change the oper-
ating mode.

Cables
You need to consider the following points before installing the system
cables:
D7949_1
•
All cables need to be adequately clamped and protected from physical
damage and exposure to heat - avoid running cables through bilges,
doorways, or close to moving objects.
When choosing a location for the antenna, consider the following points:
•
•
Acute bends must be avoided.
Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, a
watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used.
•
Make sure you place it where there is an all round clear view of the
horizon.
•
It should not be too high above the water - the maximum recom-
mended height is one not exceeding half the length of your boat.
It should be as near to the centerline of the boat as possible.
The mounting platform should be rigid and not subject to excessive
vibration.
Power requirements
You need to consider the following power requirements:
•
•
•
•
•
Your Raymarine Satellite TV system has been designed to work on a
boat’s power supply rated at 12 V DC.
•
It should be away from the edge of the boat - this will avoid unneces-
sary motion which can affect reception.
If your boats power supply is rated at 24 V DC you will need to install a
suitable DC power inverter to reduce the supply voltage to 12 V DC.
If your IRD(s) and television(s) require a 220/240 V AC power supply,
you will need to install a suitable DC to AC converter to operate the
units from your boat’s DC power supply.

Extending the cables
The cables that have been supplied with your Raymarine Satellite TV
system should be of adequate length to complete the installation on most
boats. However, should it be necessary to extend a cable the following
points should be considered:
Power and data cable
This cable is supplied at a length of 15 m.
If a longer length is required you should replace this cable with Raymarine
Part No.E96007 - 30 m Power/Data cable.
Power cable
This cable is supplied at a length of 10 m.
RF cable
This cable is supplied at a length of 15 m.
If a longer length is required you should replace this cable with Part No.
E96008 which will extend the available cable length to 30m. Additional
length can be achieved by joining the supplied RF cable and the extension
together to give a maximum available cable length of 45m.
Note: The stated cable lengths should not be exceeded as this may result in
reduced performance of your system.

When you use a multiswitch, the signal from the satellite receiver can no
longer tell the antenna when to automatically change satellites. In order to
change the satellite being tracked, you must use the ACU. For example, in
some areas DirecTV programming is found on DTV101 and DTV119 (local
channels) When tracking DTV101, all of the receivers can receive
programmes from that satellite. If you want to see programmes on
DTV119, you need to manually change the satellite being tracked by
pressing Satellite B on the ACU. This means that all receivers can then
watch the programmes available on DTV119.

other receiver can watch any channel which is available from the tracked
satellite.
The RF cable should be connected from RF1 to ‘LNB’, ‘ANT’ or ‘Satellite In’
on the rear panel of the IRD.
As in the single IRD option the RF cables from the antenna base plate
should be connected to ‘LNB’, ‘ANT’, or ‘Satellite In’ on the rear panel of
the IRD.
Twin IRDs
You can connect two IRDs to your antenna as shown in the following
diagram.However, only one of the IRDs can be configured as a two satellite
receiver. The other IRD needs to be configured as a one satellite receiver.
Full details on configuring your system IRDs will be found in the relevant
Manufacturer’s handbook.

Raymarine Satellite TV Systems
1. Blown fuse, low power or wiring
5. Multi-switch interference
•
Check that the in-line quick blow fuse (if fitted) has not blown, or the
circuit breaker has not tripped. Replace fuse with one of the same type
and rating.
If you have extended the power cable from the antenna unit, check
that there is no power loss.
If you have multiple IRD’s connected to your system, make sure that you
are using an ACTIVE not PASSIVE multi-switch.
7. IRD troubleshooting
Your IRD may be the cause of less than ideal operation.
•
•
Check the system wiring and connections.
1. Check the IRDs configuration to ensure that it is programmed for the
area in which you are operating.
2. Unplug the IRD from the power supply for 15 seconds. Reconnect and
allow the system to initialize.
2. Satellite signal blocked
Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other boats, or
equipment on your boat. Check that the antenna has a clear view of the
sky.
8. LNB fault
If you have an LNB fault, it may require replacing. Contact your local
dealer, national distributor or Raymarine Product Support for further
assistance.
3. Outside satellite coverage zone
Your system will provide excellent reception within the antenna coverage
area for your satellite television service. However, signal quality may
degrade as you approach the edges of this zone. Refer to “Satellite
coverage areas” on page 49 to check the viable coverage area for your
antenna.
4. Radar interference
The energy levels radiated by radar units can overload the antenna front-
end circuits. Make sure that your antenna is installed as described in “How
do I plan the installation?...” on page 10 of this handbook with regards to
your radar unit.
5. Incorrect or loose RF or power/data connectors
As part of the regular maintenance recommended by Raymarine, all
connections should be checked to ensure that they have not become loose.
A loose RF or power/data connector can reduce signal quality or cause the
antenna not to work.

Satellite coverage areas
The following satellite coverage maps do not guarantee coverage. This can
be affected by climatic conditions that may cause variation in the satellite

Climatic conditions
Atmospheric conditions that may cause a significant loss of signal level
include:
•
•
•
•
Rain
Snow
Heavy fog
Solar activity, e.g. sun spot and flare activity.
45STV
By far the most common of these conditions is rain. Rain drops in the atmo-
sphere will reduce the signal from the satellite, the heavier the rain the
higher the signal loss. The effect of this signal loss is that the antenna’s
ability to remain locked to the satellite signal becomes severely affected. This
in turn means degradation or in some cases a complete loss of satellite
signal. When the amount of rain contained in the atmosphere decreases the
antenna will re-acquire the satellite signal.
