“Instant On” Operation:
The satellite routinely saves its position to
memory as part of operation. When turned on,
the system stores the last saved position and if
the motorhome has not changed location, the
antenna will immediately acquire the signal.
If the motorhome moves after the system is
turned off, the antenna will quickly carry out
normal initialization routine to re-acquire the
satellite. Press the Power button to turn the
system off.
NOTE:
It is highly recommended that the
system be turned OFF prior to moving
the motorhome. The system will not
track a satellite while the motorhome is
in motion.
The system requires the following preventive
maintenance for optimum performance.
Monthly:
Wash the exterior of the radome and
base plate assembly with fresh water; a
mild detergent may be added to remove
grime. DO NOT spray the radome
directly with high-pressure water.
DO NOT apply abrasive cleaners or
volatile solvents, such as acetone, to the
ABS dome.
Annually:
Have the satellite system inspected by
a professional RV technician or satellite
installer.
Apply full strength liquid dish detergent
to the dome surface and allow it to dry.
This treatment provides a lm on the
dome surface that will allow moisture to
bead up and roll off.
NOTE:
If a need arises to paint the radome,
ONLY use non-metallic automotive
paint to avoid degrading signal strength
and reception quality.
INFORMATION:
Refer to the complete warranty
statement provided with the OEM
Manual for information on warranty,
repair, and/or liability policies.
NOTE:
For optimum signal strength, keep
the dome clean from dirt, bugs and
other debris. Periodic washing of the
dome using mild soap and water is
recommended. If the motorhome is
to be stored for long periods of time,
it is recommended that the system be
put through a search procedure on a
quarterly basis to keep all moving parts
in good working order.
