Connecting The System To A Gps - Intellian i2 Installation And Operation Manual

Connecting the System to a GPS

To improve satellite tracking, you can connect your satellite TV system
directly to your boat's NMEA 0183 GPS system. To do this you will need
a cable with suitable lengths to connect to your GPS system and you will
need the green 2-way ACU GPS connector supplied with your Intellian
i1/i2 Satellite TV System.
To connect the system to a GPS
1. Remove the rubber band insulations on each cable and connect a
cable to each terminal of the 2-way connector.
2. Tighten the locking screws.
3. Connect the cable from the +ve (positive) terminal of the ACU's GPS
connector to the NMEA OUT wire of the boat's GPS system.
4. Connect the cable from the –ve (negative) terminal of the ACU GPS
connector to the ground wire of the boat's GPS system.
5. Refit the ACU GPS connector to the rear of the ACU.
