Connect the Data Cable
Connect the data cable to the "Data" jack on the
base of the antenna (see Figure 24 on page 15).
Hand-tighten until the connector locks in place;
do not use excessive force.
Connect the Power Cable
Do not connect the power cable to vessel AC
power yet. You will connect power in Step 12
on page 24.
a. Using a 7/16" socket/ratchet or nut driver,
unlock the three hex latches securing each of
the antenna's service hatches (see Figure 21
on page 14). Then gently lower the hatches.
b. Loosen the four captive screws securing the
cover to the connector module (see
Figure 26). Detach the cover.
c. Pass the power cable through the sealing
gland on the antenna baseplate then through
the vacant access hole in the connector
module (see Figure 24 on page 15 and
Figure 27).
d. Strip the jacket from the end of the power
cable. Then strip back the insulation of all
three wires approximately 1/4" (6 mm) and
gently twist each wire to ensure a good
connection.
e. Crimp a ring terminal (supplied in the
kitpack) onto the end of each power wire.
f. Connect the wires to the terminal block as
shown in Figure 27.
g. Reattach the connector module's cover.
h. Make sure the On/Off switch on the side of
the connector module is set to On (|).
i. Extract any excess cable through the sealing
gland, then tighten the gland by twisting its
nut onto the cable.
