1.Introduction
1.1. About This Manual
This manual explains the iNetVu®Flyaway System Installation and Operation. An
electronic version of this manual is included on the iNetVu®CD that came with your
system.
1.2. System Overview
Equipped to work with the iNetVu®7000 Controller, the iNetVu®Flyaway antenna is an
easily assembled, rugged and reliable product for automatic satellite acquisition. This
lightweight antenna is a rapidly deployable unit that is ideal for applications that require
satellite communication over Ku-Band. The Flyaway empowers users with the ability to
stop anywhere there exists satellite coverage and access Internet at broadband speeds.
The 1.2M Flyaway System comes with a protective case that has been designed to be
airline checkable. Without the use of any tools, the Flyaway could be field assembled
and operational in less than 10 minutes by one person.

3.Assembly and Disassembly
3.1. Assembly Procedure
Support Stand Assembly
1) Unfold the tripod assembly and lock the leg assemblies into place with the T-Handled
threaded knob as pictured below.
2) Unlock the two (2) T-Handled threaded knobs gripping the lock plate above the pivot
location of the lower reflector assembly. Lift the lock plate, and slide the lower
reflector assembly into the pivot as depicted in the figure below.
iNetVu® Flyaway User Manual

3) Push the lock plate towards the lower reflector assembly, and lock the two (2)
threaded knobs.
4) Attach the elevation motor assembly to the tripod assembly by sliding the elevation
bracket between the tripod assembly and the washers of the T-handled threaded
knobs. You may have to loosen the knobs before insertion.
When the elevation bracket is locked into place, tighten the two (2) T-handled
threaded knobs such that the washer firmly grips the bracket to the tripod assembly.
Facing the back of the reflector, the elevation motor should be facing left.
Note: Avoid twisting
the bellows when
handling the elevation
motor assembly.

5) Lock the elevation motor assembly into place by lining the mounting holes between
the lower reflector assembly and the elevation motor assembly and inserting the
quick release pin as depicted below.
6) Attach the upper reflector assembly to the lower reflector assembly making sure the
dowel pins fit securely in place.

) Snap the feed arm strut to the feed arm and reflector sides by retracting the spring-9
loaded barrel on the ball socket end fitting and snapping it into place
0) If the polarization assembly is not already attached to the feed arm, attach the
1
feed polarization assembly to the feed arm assembly, and secure it with the T-
Handled threaded knob located on the bottom side of the feedarm.

13) Connect the reflector (inclinometer) and elevation (elevation motor) cables to the
area on the connector plate labelled “REFLECTOR” and “ELEVATION”. The cables
only fit in one direction.
14) Insert the external Motor/Sensor Cable, RX and TX coax cables into the proper
location on the connector plate labelled “CONTROLLER”.
15) Follow the “Installing BUC with the Universal Mounting Clamp kit” for mounting the
BUC onto the mounting plate of the feed arm.
16) See section 4) for controller connectivity based on your desired connection
preferences.
17) Congratulations, you have successfully assembled the iNetVu®Flyaway System!
