Satellite TV System User Manual

3 Using Your TracVision L3
For TracVision L3 to receive the satellite signals, the antenna
must have a clear line of sight to the satellite. If you only receive
intermittent signals or the antenna cannot find the satellite, check
around your vehicle for any objects that could be blocking the
signal, such as trees, buildings, highway overpasses, etc.
3.1 Turning on the System
The TracVision L3 system is easy to use. Antenna unit
initialization and satellite acquisition is completely automatic.
To use the TracVision L3 system:
1. Turn on the IRD and the television. (Refer to your
IRD user manual for complete operating
instructions for the IRD.)
2. Turn on the antenna using the switchplate, as
pictured in Figure 3-2.
3. Avoid turning for 60 seconds after turning on the
antenna to allow the antenna gyro to initialize
properly.
