Updating Satellite Frequency Data
If the antenna is unable to find a satellite, or you are unable to
receive certain channels, the satellite’s frequency data may have
changed. The Satellite Frequency Scan feature allows you to
update the frequency data of any satellite stored in the system’s
library.
This function should not be used unless directed by KVH
Technical Support or a KVH-authorized technician.
With the desired satellite, band, and polarization selected, the
system will automatically search for the frequency with the
strongest signal. The system will then update that satellite’s
programmed data with the new frequency (and associated
network ID) and store it in the satellite library.
To update the satellite frequency data, follow the steps below:
1. Place your IRD in the satellite signal meter mode.
2. Select the desired satellite on the ADCU. Ensure
the TV signal meter indicates that you have a
strong signal.
If the antenna is unable to find the selected
satellite automatically, you can manually point the
antenna using the Manual mode (see “Manually
Controlling the Antenna” on page 84).
3. Select the desired polarization and band on the
IRD.
4. Do not move the vessel. Your boat must remain
motionless during the entire Satellite Frequency
Scan process.
5. Follow the ADCU menus on the next page. The
scan itself will take a couple of minutes. Once
complete, restart the antenna and ensure the
antenna will track the new frequency.
