1.3 Direct Broadcast Satellite Overview
Direct Broadcast Service (DBS) satellites broadcast audio, video and
data information from satellites located 22,000 miles in space. A
receiving station, such as the SATMAR37, should include a dish and
satellite receiver to receive the signals and process them for use by the
consumer audio and video equipment. The system requires a clear
view of the satellite in the sky to maximize the signal reception.
Figure 1-2
The SATMAR37 satellite antenna is fully compatible with Digital Video
Broadcasting (DVB) satellites, as well as OPTUS D1 satellite.
At present, there is one Direct Broadcast Satellite position over New
Zealand.

1.4 Line of Sight (LOS) Interruption
The SATMAR37 needs a clear line of sight (LOS), view to the satellite
for uninterrupted reception. Objects such as tall buildings, bridges,
tunnels and trees that block this view will cause a loss of signal. The
signal will be quickly restored once the antenna has a clear line of sight
again.
Heavy rain, cloud, snow or ice may also interfere with the signal recep-
tion quality. If the satellite signal is lost due to blockage or severe
weather condition, services from the receiver will be lost (picture will
freeze frame and may disappear). When the satellite signal strength is
again high enough, then the receiver will resume providing desired pro-
gramming services.
1.5 System Components
The standard SATMAR37 antenna system consists of the Outdoor Unit
(ODU, dome antenna), the Indoor Unit (IDU), which includes the Power
Supply.
SATMAR45 Outdoor Unit (ODU):
The Outdoor Unit houses the electronics, dish, LNB within a radome.

This section offers a general explanation of how properly to install the
SATMAR37 antenna. Installation of the SATMAR37 must be
accomplished by or under the supervision of an authorized dealer for
the Limited Warranty to be valid and in force. The steps in the
installation and setup process are as follows:
1. Preparing for the installation
2. Select location
■Mount the antenna (ODU) on top of the vessel
3. Equipment and cable installation
■Install the Indoor Unit (IDU), Power Supply near the Satellite
Receiver (Decoder) and TV
■Connect the cables
2.1 Unpacking the SATMAR37
The following items are included in the packaging of the SATMAR37:
Be sure to verify the complete shipment of your system before
beginning the installation.

2.1.2 Installation Tools and Materials
The SATMAR37 system is designed for simple installation and setup.
However, the following list of equipment or items should be available
during installation of the SATMAR37:
■Electric drill and drill bits (Define the size?) eg. 5mm & 2mm
■Philips and flat tip screwdrivers (Define the size?) eg.#2 & #0
■Socket wrench
■Silicon sealant
■Fastener suitable for specific application
2.2 Antenna Installation
2.2.1 Select Location
Perform a through site inspection for the antenna to be mounted. There are
several factors to consider when choosing the location for the SATMAR37
antenna.
1. The antenna must have a clear view of the sky and horizon at all the
direction
to avoid blockage of the satellite signal.
2. Keep the antenna clear of any obstructions above decks. The antenna
requires a 10 to 80 degree look angle to receive satellite signals.
3. To minimize tracking errors, place the antenna unit as close as
possible to the intersection of the vessel’s fore-and aft centerline and
midships
4. Using two people, place the antenna onto the vessel platform. Do not
try to
install the antenna by yourself.
■The mounting surface should be flat and strong enough to support
the complete assembly.
■Make sure that the mounting surface is rigid.
2.2.2 Equipment and cable installation
This offers a general explanation of how to install the Indoor Unit and satellite
receiver properly to the inside of vessel connecting with coax cable.
1. The RF cable is routed from the antenna to the IDU inside the vessel.
2. Once decide where to place the IDU and satellite receiver, and make
sure that both units are placed in a dry and protected area.
3. The IDU and satellite receiver should be placed away from any heat
source and in an area with proper ventilation.
4. Ensure that there are at least 3cm of space around both units for
ventilation and connection of cables. Do not stack the units on top
of each other.
5. The following describes the basic wiring configurations for the
SATMAR37 antenna system.
■Connect the RF cable to the SATMAR37 port (antenna) on the back
of the IDU
■Connect one end of the supplied coax cable to the receiver port on
the back of the IDU
■Connect the other end of the coax cable to the satellite receiver in
the LNB INPUT
