FAQ

No picture is showing on the TV set. What should I do?

No picture is showing on TV set There are a number of common issues that could cause you to have no picture on the TV set.

Improper LNB Skew angle: A proper LNB skew angle is needed when antenna targets a linear polarization satellite. The optimal skew angle can be found by rotating LNB at tracking mode by checking signal levels at Antenna Control Unit (ACU) or PC program. The satellite receiver has the ability to switch satellites automatically using a DiSEqC signal. Ensure the satellite configuration on your IRD must match the satellite setting on the Intellian system.
Out of satellite coverage zone: Intellian 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 coverage zone.
Incorrect or loose RD connections: As part of the regular maintenance Intellian recommends all connections should be checked to ensure that they have not become loose. A loose RF connector can reduce signal quality. For Intellian® i3 and i4 , you need always connect your RF1 cable to your Antenna Control Unit (ACU). Please refer to the "Connecting the Antenna RF Signal Cable to the IRD" section of your owner’s manual for more information.
Type of multiswitch used: An active multiswitch must always be used to connect the Intellian system to multiple IRDs. Refer to your owner’s manual for directions on proper multiswitch /multiple IRD cabling.
IRD wiring: Refer to the "Connecting the Antenna RF Cable to the IRD" section in your Intellian owner’s manual and your IRD user manual to confirm that the IRD is properly connected to the antenna unit and the television.
IRD faulty: In the case of a faulty IRD, refer to your IRD user manual for service, replacement, and warranty information.
If you are still having difficulties or have any questions, please contact the Intellian technical support team by submitting a question using via email at support@intelliantech.com.

Intermittent TV picture for short intervals. What should I do?

There are a number of common issues that may cause you to have an intermittent picture for short intervals.
Improper LNB Skew angle: This only applies in regions that use Linear signals such as Europe and South America, not applicable in US and Canada. A proper LNB skew angle is needed when antenna targets a linear polarization satellite. The optimal skew angle can be found by rotating LNB at tracking mode by checking signal levels at Antenna Control Unit (ACU) or PC program.
Satellite signal blocked: Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other vessels or equipment on vessel itself. Check to see if the antenna has a clear view of the sky. Refer to your owner’s manual, to make certain that the Intellian unit is in the optimal location.
Out of satellite coverage zone: Intellian systems provide excellent reception within the antenna coverage area for your satellite television service. However, signal quality may degrade as you approach the edges of coverage zone.
Incorrect or loose RF connections: As a part of the regular maintenance Intellian recommends all connections should be checked to ensure that they have not become loose. A loose RF connector can reduce signal quality. For Intellian i-Series, you need always connect your RF1 cable to your Antenna Control Unit (ACU). Please refer to the "Connecting the Antenna RF Signal Cable to the IRD" section of your owner’s manual for more information.
Type of multiswitch used: An active multiswitch must always be used to connect the Intellian system to multiple IRDs. Refer to your owner’s manual for directions on proper multiswitch/multiple IRD cabling.
IRD wiring: Refer to the "Connecting the Antenna RF Cable to the IRD" section in your Intellian owner’s manual and your IRD user manual to confirm that the IRD is properly connected to the antenna unit and the television.
IRD faulty: In the case of a faulty IRD, refer to your IRD user manual for service, replacement, and warranty information.
Radar Interference: Intellian recommends that you do not mount the antenna on the same level as the radar, because the radar’s energy might overload the antenna's front-end circuits. Refer to the owner’s manual to make sure that your antenna unit is in the optimal location with regard to your radar unit.

FAQ

The Intellian system will not find or lock on to the satellite. What should I do?

There are a number of possibilities that could explain why the system will not find the satellite. Satellite signal blocked: Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other vessels or equipment on vessel itself. Check if the antenna has a clear view of the sky. Refer to your owner’s manual, to make certain that the Intellian unit is in the optimal location.

Outside of satellite coverage zone: Intellian systems provide excellent reception within the antenna coverage area for your satellite television service. However, the strength of satellite signal may be degraded as you approach the edges of coverage zone. Radar interference: Intellian recommends that you do not mount the antenna on the same level as the radar. Radio waves emitted from radar might interfere with Intellian.

Incorrect or loose RF connections: As part of the regular maintenance Intellian recommends all connections should be checked to ensure that they have not become loose. A loose RF connector can reduce signal quality. For Intellian i-Series, you need always connect your RF1 cable to your Antenna Control Unit (ACU). Please refer to the "Connecting the Antenna RF Signal Cable to the IRD" section of your owner’s manual for more information.

Radome off: Intellian recommends that you should keep the radome on during the satellite search or tracking mode. Direct sunlight or other weather factors may interfere with the sub-reflector’s optical sensors and it might cause the antenna tracking function to fail.

Incorrect satellite information: Incorrect satellite information (i.e. transponder frequency, symbol rate, NID or decode method) will result the antenna tracking function failed. Satellite information may be changed from time to time due to the satellite TV program or program provider change. You can contact Intellian authorized dealers directly to have the latest satellite information.

Multiswitch interference: An active multiswitch must always be used to connect the Intellian system to multiple satellite receivers (IRD). Insufficient voltage: Intellian recommends that the RF cable between antenna and Antenna Control Unit (ACU) should not be longer than 30-meter. Over 30-meter will result in the voltage drop and it might cause significant loss of signal gain. Please consult Intellian authorized dealers for technical support. In order to have your antenna operate normally, the output voltage from ACU to antenna should be at least 24V for Intellian i6 and 27V for Intellian i3 and i4.

Improper LNB Skew angle: A proper LNB skew angle is needed when an antenna locks on a linear polarization satellite. The optimal skew angle can be found by rotating the LNB while in tracking mode by checking signal levels in the Antenna Control Unit (ACU) or PC program. LNB failure: If you have an defective LNB, it might need to be replaced. Contact your local dealer, national distribution or Intellian product support for further assistance.

FAQ

Is HD available on all Intellian series?

Intellian Satellite TV Antenna Systems are capable of supporting High Definition programming when available on Ku-band. Most of the Sat TV companies transmit HD programing on Ku-band so the Intellian i-Series can support this when using a HD TV with an HD subscription. DIRECTV however transmit HD signal on Ka-band and so to receive HD DIRECTV the s-Series must be used.

FAQ

I'm getting a "channel not available" message on my TV

There are a number of common issues that can cause you to get a “channel not available” message on your TV when using a satellite receiver.
Antenna tracking wrong satellite: If you select a channel on the receiver, but the wrong programming or no programming appears on the TV, that channel might be carried on a different satellite from the one the antenna is currently tracking. Try switching to another satellite.
Receiver not activated for DIRECTV HDTV service: If you are unable to receive high-definition channels on your HD receiver, your receiver may not be activated for HDTV service. High-definition channels are not included with the basic DIRECTV package; you need to request that these special channels be added to your programming package. Premium HD channels, such as HBO HD, must be ordered separately.
Program guide not fully loaded at startup: Whenever you reboot the receiver (turn the power off or disconnect the power), the receiver needs to download the complete Program Guide from the 101° satellite. Therefore, be sure the antenna is tracking the 101° satellite whenever you reboot the receiver. Please be patient during this process it may take around 20 minutes for the receiver to load the entire Program Guide, which lists channels available on every DIRECTV® satellite. You cannot select a channel until it has been loaded in the Program Guide.
If you are still having difficulties or have any questions, please contact the Intellian technical support team at support@intelliantech.com .

FAQ

Can the Intellian Satellite TV Antenna be used in both Asian and Europe?

The Intellian i-Series antenna models for Americas, Asia and Europe may appear to be identical but there are distinct differences in hardware inside the antenna; the LNB used to convert the satellite signal, located in the antenna of the satellite system is specific to the geographic location. It is not possible to receive Asia satellite signals using the European version and vice versa.
Intellian offers a solution for this with our Worldview products, these can work globally and electronically switch between regions. Worldview systems are available on all t-Series, the s80HD and s100HD along with the i6W and i9W.

If I travel into another region that uses a different TVRO Provider, what do I have to do to change programming?

This depends on the region that you are in. In Europe, you will need to get a new receiver for the area that you are in and select the new provider using the Load Region function in the setup menu. If crossing from one region to another you may need to change the LNB, or if you are using a WorldView antenna just select a new region in the Antenna Control Unit.

Certain regions of the world use different signal frequencies and polarization, so it is important if you plan to go to another region that you consider a WorldView antenna, as this will cover you wherever you go.

I'm getting a "Searching for Satellite Signal" message on the TV, what should I do?

Wiring problem: If the HDTV components are not wired correctly, the system will not work. Refer to your Owner’s Manual, verify that your system is wired properly.
Antenna powered off: The Intellian antenna must be turned on for the system to work. If the system is entirely non-functional, check the power switch or the circuit breaker to ensure that the antenna is turned on.
Antenna tracks wrong satellite: If you select a channel on the receiver, but the wrong programming or no programming appears on the TV, that channel might be carried on a different satellite from the one the antenna is currently tracking. Try switching to another satellite.
Satellite signal blocked: Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other vessels or equipment on vessel itself. Check to see if the antenna has a clear view of the sky. Refer to your owner’s manual, to make certain that the Intellian unit is in the optimal location.
Outside of satellite coverage zone: Intellian systems provide excellent reception within the antenna coverage area for your satellite television service. However, signal quality may degrade as you approach the edges of coverage zone.
Weak satellite signal: Just like radio stations, some satellite TV channels are transmitted at a stronger signal level than others. If you're unable to receive a clear signal on one channel, try switching to a stronger channel. Weaker channels are more vulnerable to interference, such as rain or snow.

Can I use the existing cables I have installed on my boat to connect the TVRO antenna and ACU?

A quality RG6 Coax cable is highly recommended between the Intellian ACU and the antenna to get the best performance and reliability of your system. Ensuring the quality and reliability of old cables is always difficult. To ensure reliable performance Intellian recommends that you utilize the cables provided with the system or purchase similar type cables if required.
If existing cables are used, then ensure that the F-Type connectors are free from corrosions and the cables are in good condition, especially where exposed to the weather.

FAQ

Is HD TV available on all Intellian Sat TV systems?

To receive HD, a suitable HD receiver and subscription has to be used to get HD channels. The Intellian i-Series will display HD programming when available on Ku-band Satellite signals.
In the US, Dish Network sends HD programing on Ku-band and the i-Series will display HD, a MIM is required for operation with Dish. DIRECTV operate on a dual band system and to receive HD, Intellian dual band antennas, the s6HD or s80HD/s100HD WorldView must be used.
The i-Series will work with DIRECTV, but will only receives SD channels. Bell TV in Canada delivers HD programing on Ku-band, therefore the i-Series will display HD channels. For optimum viewing, an Intellian MIM should be used to automate satellite channel switching.
In European locations, most satellite TV providers transmit HD channels on Ku-band and so the Intellian i-Series should receive HD channels if they are provided as part of the subscription package. Please check with your local dealer.

Can I connect multiple TV screens to one Satellite TV antenna system?

One Intellian Sat TV system can be connected to multiple TV screens. Each TV will need to have its own Satellite receiver (set top box) and be connected to the antenna system using either a multi-switch or Intellian MIM.
This will allow viewers to watch separate channels on each TV screen. Note: if you only have one receiver, all of the TV screens will show the same programming.

FAQ

Why do I lose some channels while I can still watch other channels?

An individual satellite has many different transponders, all broadcasting different programs. These transponders typically have different power levels. Signals from the weaker transponders will frequently be lost before the signals from the stronger ones, especially at the fringes of the coverage footprint. This also applies to local channels that are based on your billing Zip code. Once you sail out of your local region you will lose the locals channels, like the news and weather, but you will still be able to receive the national channels.

What i-Series antenna is best suited for my small yacht?

The correct antenna is selected based on your cruising area and how far offshore you may sail. The Satellite TV broadcasters send their signal to land, and so as a boater we are using the fringe of the signal. The further offshore we go, the weaker the signal and therefore the larger the antenna needs to be. Go to the following link (www.intelliantech.com/Sattv/i-Series), you will be able to use the coverage selector to identify which antenna size is best suited for you. It will also show the coverage for the satellite TV service. You should also consult with your local dealer for local advice.

FAQ

Channels on the 110° satellite are not viewable, but others remain okay. What should I do?

There are a number of common issues that can cause some channels on the 110° satellite to not be viewable, while others remain okay.
Satellite signal blocked: Satellite signals can be blocked or degraded by buildings, other vessels or equipment on the vessel itself. Check to see if the antenna has a clear view of the sky. Refer to your owner’s manual, to make certain that the Intellian unit is in the optimal location.
Outside of satellite coverage zone: Since the 110° satellite transmits TV signals at a lower power than the 129° and 119° satellites, the coverage area of the 110° satellite differs slightly from the coverage area of the 129° and 119° satellites. As you approach edge areas of the 110° satellite, signal quality will degrade while the signal quality of the 129° and 119° satellites may remain relatively strong.
Weak satellite signal: Just like radio stations, some satellite TV channels are transmitted at a stronger signal level than others. If you're unable to receive a clear signal on one channel, try switching to a stronger channel. Weaker channels are more vulnerable to interference, such as rain or snow.

FAQ

Can I receive HD channels with i-Series antennas?

The i-Series systems are Ku-band stabilized antenna systems that are able to track and receive DIRECTV SD channels, Dish TV Network, Bell TV (Canadian), DIRECTV Latin America, and Sky Mexico’s SD and HD channels.
In other regions, such as in Europe, that transmit HD programing on Ku-band, the i-Series can receive these, as long as they are included in the users subscription package from the Sat TV provider and the system is within the satellite signal footprint. For DIRECTV HD programing the s-Series of products should be used to be able to view channels in HD and 4K.

FAQ

How long does an antenna installation take on average??

This depends on a number of factors onboard the vessel more than the equipment being installed. For a smaller satellite TV system it can be installed in about one full day depending on the complexity of the antenna mount and cable run. For a satellite communication systems this again depends on the mounting of the antenna and the cable runs. This could take two to three days, however once the cables are installed and the system mounted the Aptus NX software Installation Wizard guides the installer through an installation and this can be completed very quickly.

FAQ

I need a maritime TV antenna but I don't know which one is right for me. What would you recommend?

The Intellian satellite TV antenna should be selected based on coverage area and the region of operation. This combined with the size and type of vessel is the best way to choose which antenna to select. Contact your local authorized Intellian dealer and they can make a personal recommendation for you based on your normal sailing area and the TV service you wish to subscribe to.

FAQ

If my antenna is damaged by lightning, what should I do?

If your antenna system is struck by lightning it most likely will be damaged beyond repair. This can also occur if lightning strikes somewhere on the vessel and not the antenna directly. The sensitive electronics in all systems onboard is often completely beyond repair and we recommend that it be replaced. The charge can also be so great that it can destroy the RF cables, and it would be recommended to also replace those as well. Please consult with your local Intellian dealer.

FAQ

If my radome is damaged, can I keep using it without repair? Does Intellian offer repair service for damaged radomes?

Intellian radomes are built using very special composite materials to allow the satellite signals to pass through and so cannot generally be repaired. Intellian does offer replacement domes, or complete replacement radomes. We recommend that any damaged domes are replaced quickly so as to not let water get inside the antenna.

FAQ

If water leaked into my antenna, what is immediate action that I need to take?

It is never good to mix water and sensitive electronics, however Intellian radomes are designed with drain holes to allow small amounts of water out, combined with internal protection of the components. You should temporarily patch any holes in the dome and when possible have a local service dealer service and replace the damaged radome, making sure any remaining moisture is removed.

FAQ

Why did my Satellite TV system fail to acquire a lock on the correct satellite?

There may be blockage of the satellite signal from a nearby structure or you may have travelled outside the coverage area for that particular model and service. Occasionally the satellite operator may have made a change within the satellite and we will need to update the firmware in the ACU to match the satellite changes.

FAQ

How do I find my antenna's serial number ?

The antenna serial number is inside the antenna next to the antenna model. It is also on the box, in the manual and on the outside of the radome. You can also see the serial number using the front panel display on the ACU, please consult the manual to do this.

FAQ

Why does the ACU show "Communication Error" on the display?

Communication error message means there is no communication between the antenna and the antenna control unit. Check the antenna cable and connections to make sure they are tight and the cable is not damaged. If the error still shows then please contact a local dealer for technical support assistance.

FAQ

Why is the TV not showing a program when the satellite antenna is tracking a satellite with a strong signal level?

Please check the NID lock in the ACU indicated by a solid "DOT" on the display. If NID is not locked, you may have started to track the wrong satellite. In this scenario, wait until the TVRO goes to search mode and acquires the correct satellite. If you have a lock it could also be the channel you are looking at may not be available, try changing the channel.

FAQ

How can I watch a High-Definition (HD) broadcasting on my TV?

You must have a high-definition television set and an activated HD receiver in order to receive and watch high-definition programming. Intellian HD Antenna Control Unit (ACU) enables you to have a full range of HD broadcasting if available from the TV provider. In the US, DIRECTV in HD requires an s-Series antenna to resolve the Ka-band signals. All other providers use Ku- band for HD services.

FAQ

If I want to stream video, how big of an antenna should I buy?

Steaming services require a certain bandwidth to provide the capacity to stream content. This depends on the service and also the number of users onboard wanting to stream. Lower resolutions can be streamed with a 1mbs service, but this is dependent on the airtime provider.
All Intellian VSAT antennas can provide the bandwidth to stream, however using a larger antenna generally reduces the cost of the airtime. We recommend you contact your local airtime provider to discuss your bandwidth requirements, but you can be assured that all Intellian VSAT antennas can stream content.
