KVH Industries TracVision 4 - Manual (Page 18)

Locating the Switchplate
A switchplate has been provided to serve as the hub of the
TracVision 4 wiring (with the exception of the RF cable, which
will be connected to the IRD). The switchplate includes an
On/Off switch and a DB9 maintenance port for easy access to the
antenna unit’s software and diagnostics. Follow the steps below
to select and prepare the switchplate mounting location.
1. Select a location to mount the TracVision 4
switchplate. It should be installed in a dry, flat
location within reach of the cables that will
connect to the antenna unit and allowing easy
access to the front panel.
2. Once you’ve decided on a suitable location, create
a panel cutout in the mounting surface.
Figure 2-3 illustrates the mounting dimensions
and a template has been provided in Appendix C.
The connecting cables will be routed through this
cutout.
