Introduction
INTRODUTION
Introduction to Intellian i2
Intellian i2 is a digital satellite antenna system designed specifically for all types of vessels (Anchored or transit) to automatically identify, track and capture satellite signals from the Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB: the international standard for digital TV transmissions) compatible Satellites. Specifically, Intellian i2 has Wide Range Search (WRS) algorithm, which minimizes the search time at initial state and Dynamic Beam Tilting (DBT) technology, which dynamically shapes the antenna beam to utilize stabilization. Once the satellite is acquired, the antenna DBT continuously measures the heading, pitch, and roll of the vessel by obtaining satellite signal level around the antenna point, and transmits commands to the antenna motors to keep the antenna pointed at the satellite at all times. This active stabilization is enhanced by a conical scan tracking function to detect and lock onto the strongest signal, resulting in the clearest reception possible. Bundled with Intellians new intelligent Antenna Control Unit (ACU), boat owners get a complete turnkey solution designed for simplicity and ease of use. To track as many as three different satellites, the ACU supports automatic satellite switching right from your remote control, just like home.
Features of Intellian i2
Enjoy satellite broadcasts at sea
Intellian i2 is the most modern antenna system that enables you to receive a high quality broadcasting signal at sea, where the atmospheric and environmental condition are very harsh.
Outstanding reliability
Intellian i2 provides highly reliable system through the implementation of a modularized design, and the usage of strictly proven components.
Easy installation
Intellian i2 uses only one RF cable for installation. This makes installation easy. Power, RF, and Data signals transfer from the antenna to the ACU through this single cable.
Compact size
Intellian i2 is small and compact size perfect for small vessels.
Introduction
USB Cable
Installation
The components of the Intellian i2 have been designed to be modular so that it may be suitable for simple installation on all types of vessels.
System Components
Antenna Unit
The antenna of Intellian i2 is composed with the following components for the optimum search and reception of the satellite signal. Mechanical Unit manipulates the antenna to receive the optimal satellite signal regardless of the movement of the vessel. Control Unit controls mechanical operation of the antenna. RF Unit transmits the optimum satellite signal to the IRD. Radome protects the antenna from the severe marine environment.

Installation
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 humility. Cable with an acute bends is not allowed. Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, a watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used.
Power requirements
You need to follow the power requirements to avoid damage to the system: Intellian i2 has been designed to work on a boats power supply rated from 9V~30 V DC. If your IRD(s) and television(s) require a 110/240V AC power, a suitable DC to AC converter will be needed to operate the unit(s) from your boats DC power supply.
Power Cable
This cable supplied at a length of 10m.
RF Cable
This cable is supplied at a length of 15m. If a longer length is required you should replace this cable with an extended RF cable supplied by Intellian Technologies.
WARNING
Exceeding the indicated cable lengths will result in reduced performance of your system.

WARNING
If a power tower is not sued to mount the antenna, separate cable shock and waterproofing measures must be taken to protect the RF connector from begin exposed to the sea water and external shocks. An exposed RF cable may cause electric shock and cause serious damage to the equipment
8mm Drill
Make 4 bolt holes of 8mm diameter, one at each corner of a rectangle drawn as above, and make a circular hole of 50mm diameter at the center of the rectangle, through which cable will run.

Connection of RF cable
Remove the rubber protector for RF connector. Connect he RF cable to the RF connector under the base plate through the access hole using a 11mm spanner. Be careful not to tighten it too much, as you may damage the connector.
RF Cable
Optional
WARNING
Do not use excessive force when using the spanner, this will damage the threads. Be careful that the connectors do not contact the mounting surface of the antenna, this may cause a critical malfunction and serious damage to the equipment.

Satellite Information Satellite information consists of frequency, symbol and NID (Network ID) of a transponder in tracking satellite. There are four groups of satellite information. Vertical/RHCP is applied when IRD supply 13V, and Horizontal/LHCP is applied when IRD supply 18V. LOW is applied when DiSEqC signal is not detected from IRD, HIGH is applied when DiSEqC signal is detected from IRD. If you select Not Use or Change Satellite, two HIGH groups are inactivated. If you select Change Band, two High groups are activated and you can modify satellite information which is applied when DiSEqC signal is detected from IRD. After modifying information, press Edit Satellite Information button, then new information is updated in the antenna.

Note: * for an explanation of possible cause and their remedies refer to the following paragraphs 1. Blown fuse, low power or wiring Check that the in-line quick blow fuse (if fitted) has not blown or the circuit breaker has not tripped. Replace fuse with one of the same type and rating. If you have extended the power cable from the antenna unit, check that there is no power loss. Check the system wiring and connections. 2. Satellite signal blocked Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other boats or equipment on your boat. Check to see if the antenna has a clear view of the sky. 3. Outside satellite coverage zone Your system will provide excellent reception within the antenna coverage area for your satellite television service. However, signal quality may degrade as you approach the edges of this zone. 4. Radar interference The energy levels radiated by radar units can overload the antenna a front-end circuits. Make sure that your antenna is installed as described in page 8; Selection of Installation Site. 5. Incorrect or loose RF connectors As part of the regular maintenance recommended by Intellian Technologies, Inc., all connections should be checked to ensure that they have not become loose. A loose RF connector can reduce signal quality. 6. Multi-switch interference If you have multiple satellite receiver (IRD) connected to your system, make sure that you are using an active not passive multi-switch.
Troubleshooting
65
7. Satellite receiver (IRD) troubleshooting Your satellite receiver (IRD) may be the cause of less than ideal operation. 1) Check the satellite receivers (IRDs) configuration to ensure that it is programmed for the area in which you are operation. 2) Unplug the satellite receiver (IRD) from the power supply for 1 second. Reconnect and allow the system to initialize. 8. LNB fault If you have an LNB fault, it may require replacing. Contact your local dealer, national distributor or Intellian Technologies, Inc. product support for further assistance.
