All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment.
6 • • Raymarine Satellite TV Systems The equipment is supplied from a separate battery to that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode. Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.

Note: Each satellite will have to be changed to the 18 V power setting. It is recommended that the PC program is used to change these settings.
15 Satellite switching Technical tips The satellite receiver has the ability to switch satellites automatically using a DiSEqC signal. 1. Only the Master receiver has the ability to change the satellites automatically - this receiver should be HD compatible. The Master receiver can change satellites between DTV101, DTV119 and DTV110#. Any other receivers in the system do not have the ability to change the satellite being tracked, only watch the channels on the current satellite, i.
