TracPhone V7-HTS with ICM, exact 54-1220 Rev D, copyright 2020. Not V7-IP or V3-HTS. Unlimited LAN and High-speed LAN below are the archived manual’s network names, not current airtime offers. Confirm installed software and present service separately; historical portals or KVH Link content are not promised available.
How it connects
The antenna and ICM connect the vessel to the documented Ku-band hub path. The ICM contains modem, router and Wi-Fi access point, with four User Ethernet ports and separate analogue voice. Rev D distinguishes two local data networks that must not be interconnected: Unlimited LAN and High-speed LAN. Port roles depend on the installed Standard HTS, Static IP HTS or Open Access HTS profile; port 4 is not always an ordinary user LAN.
Lights and messages
- Read CONTROL UNIT, ANTENNA and MODEM by name. CONTROL UNIT green reports an operational ICM; ANTENNA green reports satellite tracking. Flashing green ANTENNA can mean search, waiting for modem communication or software processing, not one unique fault. MODEM green means logged into the service; orange means offline. Preserve exact warning/error text before assigning a cause.
A light is one clue, not a complete diagnosis. Match the indicator’s label and the on-screen message.
Before buying parts
- The system components are antenna and ICM; the network illustration explicitly labels computers and analogue telephone as customer-supplied. The modem and MTA are built into the ICM. An accessory LAN reserved in some profiles for optional static-IP, media-server, external-MTA or crew services is not evidence those options are installed or available today.
These are compatibility notes and official reference links. Confirm the fault and exact part before buying.
