Chapter 1 - Introduction

System Components

The TracVision R6DX system includes the following components:

The antenna uses integrated DVB

technology to quickly acquire and track the

correct satellite, switch between satellites,

and send TV signals to the interface box.

Internal gyros allow the antenna to track

the satellite at all times, even while you’re

on the move!

The interface box/controller supplies

power to the antenna and delivers satellite

TV signals to your satellite TV receiver.

The interface box also allows you to set up

the system using the pushbuttons and LCD

display.

To ensure compatibility with the TracVision system, KVH

recommends the receiver models shown in the table below. These

receivers have all been validated by KVH to work well with the
