2.4 Selecting the Active Satellite
As noted previously, TracVision L3 can track a variety of DVB-
compatible and DSS satellites. The system contains a
preprogrammed library of European and North American
satellites. It also has two open slots that you may use to program
two additional satellites of your choice. Tables 2-3 and 2-4
provide a grid of possible satellite pairs. Two of these satellites
may be selected to reside in the system’s active memory as
Satellites A and B. Once this is done, changing the channel on the
IRD remote control will tell the antenna to track one or the other,
making it easy to switch between the satellites of your choice.
The satellites listed in TracVision L3’s preprogrammed satellite
library will be sufficient for most users. However, if you wish to
install one or two user-defined satellites, proceed to Section 2.4.2,
