Raymarine STV60 Installation & Operation Instructions page 5

Please carefully read and follow the installation, operating and
maintenance procedures, to ensure optimum performance.
Geographic location
Your STV system will operate in various geographic regions,
dependant upon the type of satellite signal available.
Broadly speaking di erent regions around the globe use either
circular or linear polarization for DVB satellite broadcasts. Each
STV unit is configured to receive either Linear or Circular polarized
signals.
Some examples of regions using circular and linear polarization
are below.
Circular polarization:
• North America
Linear polarization:
• Europe
• Australia
• New Zealand
• China
• Middle East
For further assistance please refer to your regional satellite service
providers or Raymarine technical support.
Changing location
If you change your area of operation, you may need to arrange for
modification to your STV system.
• Adjust the antenna low noise block (LNB) as appropriate for the
area in which you are operating.
• Update the region information using your control unit (ACU) or a
PC running the GUI software.
• Ensure that your satellite receivers (IRDs) will operate and receive
DVB broadcasts at your new location.
Important: Please refer all servicing / component replacement to
authorized Raymarine agents.
Satellite coverage
Up to date coverage maps and satellite information may be found
on the appropriate website of your satellite service provider.
Television reception
For full functionality of your STV System, you must subscribe to the
relevant service(s) from the appropriate service provider(s). Full
details of service providers are given.
EMC installation guidelines
Raymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, to minimize
electromagnetic interference between equipment and minimize the
e ect such interference could have on the performance of your
system
Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is
not compromised.
For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever
possible:
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
– At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables
carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas.
