The reference satellite option is useful when the user cannot find a DVB transponder on
the desired target satellite. The user may select a reference satellite with a known DVB
Transponder. The iNetVu

System will lock onto the reference satellite, and then pivot
from that point to the desired target satellite, and peak on the modem signal.
