This icon indicates a danger, warning, or caution notice. Be sure to read these carefully to avoid

injury.

WARNING

Risk of Electric Shock

To avoid electric shock, do not open the TV-Hub chassis enclosure. There are no user-serviceable parts

inside.

WARNING

Risk of Electric Shock

If any component of the TracVision system becomes damaged and/or no longer functions normally,

disconnect it from vessel power, secure it from unintended operation, and contact KVH Technical

Support (see “Technical Support” on page 1). All repairs or modifications must be performed by a

trained, KVH-certified technician. If you are a KVH-certified technician, you still must contact KVH

Technical Support prior to conducting any repairs or modifications to the equipment.

WARNING

Risk of Explosion

Do not operate the TV-Hub (or any other electrical device) in an environment where flammable gases,

vapors, or dusts are present. In addition, do not operate the TV-Hub in an environment with a

temperature outside its 5º F to 131º F (-15º C to 55º C) temperature range.v

WARNING

Risk of Electric Shock

Failure to ground the TracVision system properly to ship’s ground will cause an unsafe floating

ground condition, risking potentially lethal electric shock. See “Connect Power” on page 27 for details

on the proper grounding of the equipment.

Inspect Parts and Get Tools

IMPORTANT!

Before you begin, consider the following antenna

installation guidelines.

• Minimize blockage. The antenna requires a

clear view of the sky to receive satellite TV

(see Figure 3). The fewer obstructions, the

better the system will perform.

• Consider the distance between your antenna

and any radar. KVH requires that you do not

mount the antenna on the same level as the

radar, because the radar’s energy may

damage the LNB. Most radar transmitters

emit RF energy within an elevation range of

-15º to +15º (see Figure 4). Therefore, mount

the antenna outside of this elevation range

and at least 10 ft (3 m) away from the radar.

Be sure to follow the guidelines below.

Damage caused by an improper installation is

not covered under KVH warranty.

IMPORTANT!

To prevent the antenna from interfering with

any electromagnetic sensitive compasses or

equipment, maintain a minimum distance of

at least 5 ft (1.5 m) between the antenna and

any compasses.

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure the mounting surface is wide

enough to accommodate the antenna’s base

(see Figure 5). Also make sure it is flat, level

(within ±1°), strong enough to support the

antenna’s weight (198 lbs (89.8 kg)) and rigid

enough to prevent antenna vibration.

• Be sure to preserve enough free space outside

the access hatch to allow a technician to

remove the hatch and perform maintenance.

• Select a location that is not too high above the

waterline (less than 1/2 the vessel’s length),

and as close as possible to the intersection of

the vessel’s fore-and-aft centerline and

midships.

• Be sure to mount the antenna near enough to

the TV-Hub to allow you to connect the 100 ft

(30 m) coax cable between them, while still

maintaining sufficient slack in the cable.

NOTE: For RF1, you must use an RG-11 cable. If

you need to use a longer cable, use a RG-11 (75



)

cable that does not exceed 200 ft (60 m) in length (see

“Prepare the RF Cables” on page 9).

Continued Plan the Antenna Installation

Consider the following TV-Hub installation

guidelines.

• Select a mounting location in a dry, well-

ventilated area belowdecks away from any

heat sources or salt spray.

• Do not install the TV-Hub in an area

surrounded by metal or near any electrical

devices that emit RF noise.

• The TV-Hub can be mounted horizontally or

vertically on a flat surface (see Figure 7).

•Be sure the TV-Hub LED lights will be visible

to the user.

•Select a location that will provide adequate

clearance for the TV-Hub dimensions (see

Figure 7).

•Leave enough room behind the rear panel

(horizontal mount) or below the rear panel

(vertical mount) to accommodate connecting

the cables and making service loops within

the proper bend radius.

• If you plan to use the TV-Hub’s Wi-Fi

connections, ensure the TV-Hub mounting

location provides adequate Wi-Fi reception.

•If you plan to connect the TV-Hub to the

vessel’s onboard local area network (LAN),

choose a location near an available Ethernet

port.

NOTE: A template showing the exact locations of the

TV-Hub mounting holes and the dimensions between

them is provided in the Welcome Kit. Installation

details are provided in “Mount the TV-Hub” on

page 15.

Plan the TV-Hub Installation

Once you have identified a suitable antenna

mounting site, according to the guidelines

provided in “Plan the Antenna Installation” on

page 4, follow these steps to drill the mounting

holes and cable access hole to prepare the site for

installation.

Drill the Mounting Holes

a. Unfold the antenna mounting template

(supplied in Customer Welcome Kit) and place it

onto the mounting surface. Make sure the

“FWD” (forward) arrow points toward the

bow and is parallel to the vessel’s centerline

(see Figure 8). Tape in place.

NOTE: You don’t need to mount the antenna exactly

on the vessel’s centerline (the closer, the better), but

the antenna’s forward arrow must be parallel to it.

b. Using a light hammer and center punch,

mark the locations of the four mounting holes

on the mounting surface in the locations

indicated on the template.

c. Drill a 5/8" (16 mm) hole at the four

mounting hole locations. Later, you will

insert four 1/2"-13 bolts through these holes

to mount the antenna.

Cut Out the Cable Access Hole, If Needed

If you plan to route the antenna cables

belowdecks through a hole directly underneath

the antenna, follow the steps below.

a. Using the supplied template, mark the

location of the cable access hole in the center

of the mounting hole pattern (see Figure 8).

b. Cut out the 3.75" (95 mm) cable access hole at

the location you marked in step a. Smooth the

edges of the hole to protect the cable(s). Later,

you will route the RF cable(s) through this

hole and into the vessel.

c. Clean and dry the antenna mounting surface.

d. Peel off the paper backing from one of the

supplied foam seals to expose the adhesive.

Then press the foam seal down firmly onto

the mounting surface, ensuring the hole in

the foam seal aligns with the cable access hole

in the mounting surface (see Figure 8).

required in addition to what is supplied in the

antenna kit (see Figure 9 and Figure 10). Then follow

the guidelines and steps below to prepare and route

the cable(s).

Figure 10: RF Cable Requirements

•Youmust use an RG-11 cable to connect

RF1.

• Do not reuse old RF cables from a previous

antenna installation. The RF1 cable between

the TV-Hub and the antenna carries not only

satellite signal, but power and data as well.

Therefore, the integrity and reliability of this

cable is critically important.

• RF cables must be rated for 75not 50

• Use of any cables not specified in Figure 10

will void the warranty.

• Low-quality, poorly terminated, or

improperly installed RF cables are the most

common cause of system problems.

Terminate all RF cables with high-quality

“F” connectors using the proper stripping/

crimping tools, exactly to the

manufacturer’s specifications.

• When determining cable lengths, be sure to

account for an adequate service loop,

approximately 14" (36 cm) at both ends of

each cable.
