KVH Industries TracVision HD7 User Manual

Welcome!
This User's Guide explains how to use, maintain, monitor, and troubleshoot your TracVision HD7 system.
For installation and advanced configuration information, please refer to the Installation Guide.
Antenna
The antenna is mounted abovedecks where it collects both
high-definition (HD) and standard-definition satellite TV
signals from your selected satellites.
• For best results, the antenna needs a clear view of the
sky. Objects such as bridges and boat masts can block
the satellite signals and impair signal quality.
• Wash the exterior of the radome periodically. Excessive
dirt or residue can degrade system performance.
• Always keep the radome installed to protect the antenna.
Antenna Control Unit (ACU)
The ACU is mounted belowdecks
and supplies power and controls the
TracVision HD7 system.
• Displays system status and
current settings; allows you to
make changes to system settings.
