Planning the Installation
Selection of Antenna Installation Site
Install the antenna in accordance with the following procedures to insure
maximum performance of the
antenna. The ideal antenna site has
a clear view of the horizon or
satellite all around. Please be sure
there are no obstacles within 15
degrees above the antenna. Any
obstacles can prevent the antenna
from transmitting and receiving
the satellite signal.
Do not install the antenna near by the radar especially on the same
plane as their energy levels may overload the antenna front-end circuits.
It is recommended to position the antenna at least 4 feet (1.2m) above
or below the level of the radar and minimum of 15 feet (4.6m) away
from the high power short wave radars.
The mounting platform should be rigid enough and not subjected to
excessive vibration. The movement of the antenna can be minimized by
installing at the center of the vessel. If these conditions can be only
partially satisfied, find the best compromised installation site between
the various considerations.

Configure Radiation Hazard/Blockage Zones
It is important to setup the radiation hazard or blockage zones for
Intellian VSAT TX/RX communication systems. (See the “Block Zone
Setting” section of this manual). The ACU can be programmed with
relative azimuth and elevation sectors to create up to five zones where
transmit power would endanger personnel who are frequently in that
area or blockage exists. Several things happen when the antenna is
within one of these zones.
1. “BLOCK” will be displayed on the ACU screen.
2. Tracking continues as long as the signal level is greater than the
predefined threshold value. When the signal level drops below
the threshold value the antenna will wait “Search Wait Time”
parameter amount of time and re-target the satellite you
targeted last. The antenna will continue to re-target the satellite
until the satellite is re-acquired and tracking can be resumed.
3. A transmit inhibit output from the ACU will disable/mute the
modem transmit

System Cables
Before installing the system cables, you need to take the following
points into consideration.
All cables need to be well clamped and protected from physical
damage and exposure to heat and humility.
Cable with an acute bend is not allowed.
Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deck
head, a watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used.
RF Cables (Customer Furnished)

Position (GPS, Heading, Bow) & Manual Search
Antenna makes use of GPS and ship’s heading information to search
satellite faster. The more precise the GPS information is, the quicker the
antenna is able to search for the satellite. The method to input
information into GPS is to mark “Edit GPS” first and push “Set GPS”
button after keying in the latitude and longitude information.

reference. The system is not able to be automatically calculated the
exact center value, therefore, it is necessary to perform this procedure to
manually enter any offset required to make sure the PCU receives a true
reference to the horizon.
Diagnosis: If “Diagnosis” button is pressed, the system will carry out
the selected full diagnosis “Test All” or single diagnosis. The software will
display the diagnosis results (Blue dot represents “normal”, red
represents “abnormal” and green represents “the diagnosis is under

elevation angle and actual elevation angle.
Calibration Gyro: Calibrate the bias of gyro sensor located on the
sensor box. Before calibrating the gyro sensor, make sure that the
antenna is placed on a rigid and flat platform. During the calibration
process, the antenna should avoid any motion as it can affect the
antenna’s performance. After clicking the “Calibration Gyro” button, the
green dot will be displayed as a ready signal to calibrate the gyro sensor.
The red dot (fail) or blue dot (pass) will be displayed once the calibration
is completed,
