17) Make a 1-2 foot ‘Service loop’ with the cable wires and secure the looped wires on the roof with
wire clips or cable clamps.
18) Secure the wires with cable clamps every 12-16 inches from the antenna junction box working
towards the cable entry hole into the vehicle to eliminate cable movement.
19) Coat all cable clamps and screws with Dicor to prevent water leakage.
20) Put silicone in the cable hole (NOT Dicor as it is self-leveling and will seep into the hole) to fill the
void and help prevent water penetration. Once the silicone has set use the Dicor around the
silicone to water seal the cable penetration area.
21) Pull any excess cables through the pass-through entry hole and then screw the Clam Shell cover
over the hole. This will prevent water entry. Cover the outer seam of the cover and all screws
with Dicor.
Caution: It is advisable to place the open end of the Clam Shell towards the rear
end of the vehicle to prevent pressure on the opening while driving.
Cut your Control and Coax cables to length inside the vehicle. Insert the cables into
split loom cable wrap. Leave enough length of both cables to be able to remove the
Eagle II Controller from the cabinet with ease should the occasion arise. Loosely
wrap excess cable into a coil and secure to the back of the cabinet. Over tightening
cable wrap may cause damage and result in a poor satellite connection!
DO NOT stack electronics equipment as it will cause excessive heat buildup and
potentially cause damage to your equipment.
22) Securely fasten the electronics into your selected storage location to prevent damage during
travel.
Attach all cables in accordance with the general diagramed instructions. (Pages
19-22) Double check all electrical and coax connections from the controller to the
mount and LNB's BEFORE applying power to or connecting the satellite receiver to
the controller. See the following diagrams below to get a better idea on the cable
connections based on the service provider selected.
23) Perform a “Test Dish” (Option 9 in the Menu) to marry your Eagle Controller to the
new Mount. This is an important function, do not ignore.
