Precautions
Chapter 1. Precautions
1.1 Warnings, Cautions, and Notes
WARNING, CAUTION, and NOTE statements are used throughout this manual to emphasize important and
critical information. You must read these statements to help ensure safety and to prevent product damage.
The statements are dened below.
WARNING
WARNING
WARNING indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result
in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
CAUTION
CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result
in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to alert against unsafe practices.
NOTE
NOTE
A NOTE statement is used to notify people of installation, operation, programming, or
maintenance information that is important, but not hazard-related.
THIS WAY UP
• Place the boxes/crates on the oor with the arrow pointing up.
FRAGILE
• Since the Radome is fragile, handle it with care. Do not apply excessive pressure or
shock. These may cause surface cracking or other damage.
DO NOT STACK
• Do not stack boxes/crates as there is a risk boxes/crates may fall and be damaged.
KEEP DRY
• Always make sure the antenna is stored on a dry surface in a dry, well-ventilated
area.
• The antenna is designed to withstand a normal rain shower; however, water
resistance cannot be guaranteed if the antenna is submerged.
1.2 General Precautions
Before you use the antenna, make sure that you have read and understood all safety requirements.
* DO NOT SHIP VIA RAIL: Ensure not to ship any system via Rail.
* DO NOT STORE THE ANTENNA WRAPPED IN A TARP, TENT, VINYL, AND OTHERS:
To avoid damage to radome paint, do not use a cover on the radome. Using any type of cover may cause
paint damage. Intellian radomes are designed to withstand exposure to rain, humidity, and sun/UV rays
when assembled according to Intellian instructions, and when the supplied approved hardware and seal-
ants are used. Under no circumstances should an Intellian radome be covered by any protective covering
that adheres, bonds, or clings to the surface, whether by self-adhesion or tension.

v60E - Maritime VSAT Antenna System
3.1 Intellian v60E Introduction
Intellian v60E is a Ku-band 3-axis stabilized VSAT maritime antenna system. The v60E provides VSAT
solutions for efcient RF performance with compact and light mechanical design. v60E is equipped with an
RF module by a new mounting architecture. The stabilized 3-axial platform and quality approved pedestal
design ensure reliable broadband communications for sailing vessels in oceans. The v60E is operator-
friendly and easy to install with a single cable connection which combines Tx, Rx, and DC power cables.
With the new radome design, the dome-on external single cable connection means that installers do not
need to open the radome hatch during installation. Equipped with Intellian's next-generation Antenna
Control Software AptusNX, the v60E antenna can be easily monitored and controlled.
Chapter 3. Introduction
3.2 Intellian v60E Features
Efcient RF Performance
Intellian's advanced RF design technology delivers highly efcient performance with compact and light
mechanical structure compared to other 65 cm class systems. The v60E has improved tracking precision
and reliability in a compact and streamlined mechanical design. The v60E system is only supplied with
NJRC 6 W BUC.
Single Coaxial Cable
Combined Tx, Rx and DC power in a Single Cable solution, the v60E enables faster and reduced costs of
installation. The single coaxial cable is connected externally on the base of radome with no access inside
radome.
Standardized Modular Components Across E-Series
Modular components are used throughout the E-Series product range, such as motors with integrated
encoders, main control unit and internal cables.
AptusNX Intelligent Diagnosis
Intellian's all-new integrated M&C platform AptusNX provides a responsive web user interface to manage
and control the antenna system regardless of device types. Installation Wizard in AptusNX automates
functions for system conguration so that operators are minimally involved in system installation and
operation.

Antenna Unit
The antenna installation requires extreme precaution and safety measures given its size and weight. Failure
to follow the correct installation process may lead to injury of the installer and/or cause damage to the
system. In order to maximize the performance of the system, a thorough review of this installation guide is
strongly recommended, as well as executing the installation process as it is noted in this manual.
4.1 Selecting Installation Site
The system should be placed in an area onboard the vessel with little to no RF signal blockage. When the
antenna is transmitting, obstacles in way of the beam path will cause decreased satellite signal strength.
The antenna unit should have direct line-of-sight with the desired satellite without any obstacles in the
beam path. Certain minimum distances between the antenna and other onboard devices must also be
considered during installation.
4.1.1 Minimizing Satellite Blockage
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 with all around clearance.
Make sure there are no obstacles within the EL range -20° to +115° from the center of the antenna.
Obstacles can interrupt the satellite signal transmission and reception of the antenna.

12
v60E - Maritime VSAT Antenna System
4.1.2 Avoiding RF Interference
Do not install the antenna near the high power shortwave radar. Most radar transmitters emit RF energy
within an elevation range of -15° to +15°. For this reason, it is recommended to position the antenna at least
4.6 m (15.09 feet) away from the radar.
Figure 2: Potential RF Interference
WARNING
WARNING
Never place the antenna in the beam path of the radar regardless of distance. The high power
shortwave radar may impair its performance or damage the antenna.
Figure 3: RF Hazard Precautions
4.1.3 RF Hazard Precautions
The antenna is designed to be used with radiation transmitting equipment manufactured by others.
Exposure to RF radiation, including exposure associated with an improper use of the transmit equipment,
may be hazardous to persons close to the above deck unit. Ensure the safety of personnel who work on the
system.
During transmission, ensure to keep the minimum safety distance. The recommended minimum safety
distance to the reector on the focal line is about 30 m (98 ft), based on a radiation level of 1 mW/cm that
applies under uncontrolled environment. No hazard exists >20° below the antenna's mounting plane.

and mount the antenna on a flat surface of the mast.
WARNING
WARNING
When reusing an existing mast, check the condition of holes on the mast and make sure those
are proper to use compared to the hole locations and sizes printed on the mounting template.

Installing Above Deck Unit (ADU)
5.3 Designing Mast
The installation mast must be robust enough to prevent ex, vibration, and sway when an external force is
exerted on the mast with antenna and radome. Refer to the following mast drawings for more details.
WARNING
WARNING
• When designing a mast, consider the minimum and maximum thickness of the mast plate marked
on the diagram. If the thickness of the mast plate is different from the recommended size (Min.
10.0 mm/ Max. 15.0 mm), choose right sized bolts for mounting antenna on the mast according to
the table below.
Mast Plate Thickness Recommended Bolt Size
5 ~12 mm M12 x 55L
10 ~17 mm (Recommended) M12 x 60L (Supplied)
15 ~ 22 mm M12 x 65L
20 ~ 27 mm M12 x 70L
25 ~ 32 mm M12 x 75L
• To use the supplied bolts (M12 x 60L) for mounting antenna on a mast, the thickness of mast
plate must be 10 ~ 15 mm. AIf the mast plate is thinner than 10 mm, the bolt thread stick-out
protruding beyond the nut inside the radome can damage the AZ belt of the antenna. BIf the
mast plate is thicker than 15 mm, the supplied antenna-mast mounting bolts can be too short
to mount the antenna on the mast securely.
