Recalibrating the System
During installation, the TracVision M9 should have been properly
calibrated. However, if the antenna is moved or if additional
equipment is installed or removed near the antenna, KVH
recommends recalibrating the system. The following sections explain
how to recalibrate the system.
NOTE: This procedure does not apply to large vessels, such as tankers and
large cargo ships.
To perform this procedure, you will need to perform the following:
• Clear the existing calibration score
•Turn on autocalibration
• Recalibrate the system
• Verify the calibration score
Clear the Existing Calibration Score
Use the flowchart in Figure D-1 to clear the existing calibration score.
NOTE: Be sure to turn the system off after completing this procedure. Wait
10 seconds, then turn the system on.
