Follow these steps to set up the system for one or
two satellites.
a. Ensure the antenna has a clear, unobstructed
view of the sky. Then apply power to the
receiver(s), TV(s), ADCU, and antenna. Wait
one minute for system startup.
b. Press the center MENU button on the ADCU
to access the onscreen menu (see Figure 39).
c. At “Setup display type?”, press NEXT until
the display shows “Control antenna?” Then
press ENTER and press YES to confirm.
d. At “Man control antenna?”, press NEXT until
the display shows “Install satellite?” Then
press YES.
e. At “Install A <SAT NAME>”, press NEXT
until the display shows the first (primary)
satellite you want to select. Then press YES.
(See Appendix C on page 34 for a list of
available satellites.)
NOTE: If you don’t find the satellite you want, you
can set up user-defined satellites. Refer to the
associated Application Note on the KVH Partner
Portal (KVH-authorized technicians only).
f. Repeat Step e to select the second satellite. If
you want to set up the antenna to track just
one satellite, select “None” instead.
g. (If necessary) At “Latitude”, use the - and +
buttons to set each digit of the vessel’s
latitude. Press ENTER to accept each digit.
(See Appendix G on page 45 for approximate
positions in Europe or North America.)
h. At “Longitude”, set the vessel’s longitude.
i. At “Restart antenna?”, press YES. Wait one
minute while the antenna restarts.
j. (Linear systems only) Set up the receiver(s)
for the same satellites, and in the same order,
that you set them up in the antenna:
Antenna

DiSEqC
Sat. A
Alternative 1 or A
DiSEqC 1
Sat. B
Alternative 2 or B
