System Package
The Intellian t110W/t130W consists of two major units, an antenna
assembly unit and the antenna control unit.
Antenna Unit
The antenna unit includes an antenna pedestal inside a radome assem-
bly unit. The pedestal consists of the satellite antenna main dish and
sub-reector module with a WorldViewTM LNB module mounted on a
stabilized pedestal. The radome protects the antenna pedestal assem-
bly unit from the severe marine environment.

Antenna Control Unit (ACU)
The Antenna Control Unit (ACU) provides power to the antenna and controls
various settings of the antenna. Additionally, VFD (Vacuum Fluorescent Display)
allows for you to operate the ACU in the dark.

INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
Planning the Installation
Selection of Antenna Installation Site
Install the antenna in accordance with the following procedures to ensure maximum
performance of the antenna. The ideal antenna site should have a clear view of
the horizon or satellite all around it. Please be sure there are no obstacles within
15º above the center of the antenna. Any obstacles can prevent the antenna from
transmitting and receiving the satellite signal.
Do not install the antenna near by the radar especially on the same plane as the
microwave radar transmissions as these will overload the antenna front-end circuits.
It is recommended to position the antenna at least 4 feet (1.2m) above or below the
level of the radar and minimum of 15 feet (4.6m) away from any high power short
wave radars.
The mounting platform should be robust enough and not subject to excessive
vibration. The movement of the antenna can be minimized by installing at the center
of the vessel. For optimal performance of the antenna, it is not recommended to
install on any corner of the vessel, where the movement of the vessel is the greatest.
Install the bottom of the antenna parallel to the surface of the sea and x tightly to
the structure of the vessel.

System Cables
Before installing the system cables, you need to take the following points into
consideration.
• All cables need to be well clamped and protected from physical damage
and exposure to heat and humidity.
• A cable with an acute bend is should be avoid.
• Wherever a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deck head,
a watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used.
RF Cables (Customer Supplied)
Due to signal losses across the length of the RF coax on L-Band, Intellian recommends
the following 75 ohm coax cable types for standard system installations. For cables
that run longer than 100 meters, please consult Intellian Technologies.
Run Length Coaxial Cable Type
Up to 35 meters RG-6 or LMR-300-75
Up to 60 meters RG-11 or LMR-400-75
Up to 100 meters LMR-600-75
Power Requirements
Intellian t110W/t130W has been designed to work on a vessel’s power supply rated
at 110-220 V AC.
Type Multi-conductor, Shielded
Number of wires 2 conductors for NMEA 0183,
5 conductors for NMEA 2000

INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
Antenna Installation
Unpacking the Wooden Crate of t110W/t130W
The antenna pedestal is shipped completely assembled in its radome. Remove the
four shipping bolts which mount the antenna to the pallet. The pallet should be
lifted by means of a suitable sized lifting equipment.
Remove 20 clips from the edge of the wooden crate by using a at-head screwdriver and
detach the top panel and side panels.
Tips: Using a at-head screwdriver, remove the clips as shown in the picture.

Remove Antenna Shipping Brackets
Open the radome's hatch and remove the shipping brackets from the pedestal.
Using your hand, gently check that the antenna moves freely in azimuth, elevation,
and cross level without hitting any areas of the interior of the radome.
Warning: : Please ensure that your Intellian system is ALWAYS powered ON upon
leaving the dock. Failure to follow these instructions could result in damaging
mechanical parts in the antenna and/or possibly void your warranty. Intellian strongly
recommends to restrain the antenna pedestal properly while underway when power is
removed from the antenna. The normal operating condition for the t110W/t130W is to
remain powered up at all times.

INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
Antenna Dimensions
The method of installation and mounting of the antenna may vary with vessel
design but the following procedures are applicable in most situations, and will
result in a secure and effective installation. Conrm the height and diameter of the
antenna before installing it.
Antenna Mounting Templates
The mounting holes must be in the exact same place as shown in the diagram
below.

INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
Mounting the Radome
Bolt the radome base directly to the support pedestal. Makesure to use the Intel-
lian supplied bolts from the accessory box when you mount the radome.

28
Installing the System Cables
The coax cables must be inserted through the cable strain relief(s) at the base of
the radome. The cables must be routed from the antenna through the deck and
through various ship spaces to the antenna control unit. When pulling the cables
in place, avoid sharp bends, kinking, and the use of excessive force. After place-
ment, seal the deck penetration glad and tie the cables securely in place.

INSTALLING THE ANTENNA
RF Cable Connections
Before installing the RF cable, ensure that the RF cable labeled with RF1 has to be
connected properly between the antenna control unit and the power switch box.
Connect the four RF cables to the RF connectors using an 11mm spanner. Ensure
that the power switch is off during the installation period. When all the hardware
and cables have been installed, turn on the power switch. Use an RG11 rubber
gland if you’re using an RF11 cable instead of an RG6 cable supplied by Intellian.
