Follow the steps below to wire your receiver(s).

IMPORTANT!
If you cut the RF cable(s) or used additional
RF cabling, be sure to terminate all RF cables
with Snap-N-Seal® F-connectors using an
Augat IT1000 connector installation tool
(KVH part #19-0242). Screw-on, push-on,
twist-on, and other low-quality connectors
will degrade system performance.
a. Connect the RF1 cable from the antenna to
the grounding block, as shown in Figure 15.
Label this grounding block connector “RF1.”
b. If you connected an RF2 cable in “Wire the
Antenna” on page 8, connect the RF2 cable
from the antenna to the grounding block.
Label this connector “RF2.”
NOTE: If you need to connect three or more receivers,
refer to Appendix A on page 19.
c. If you are connecting two receivers to the
TracVision system, decide which receiver
will be the primary receiver. The primary
receiver controls satellite selection.
NOTE: Unless a KVH Master Receiver Selector is
installed, the secondary receiver will only be able to
select channels carried on the satellite that is currently
selected by the primary receiver.
