Programming User-defined Satellites
The TracVision G6 satellite library has the capacity for two user-
defined satellites in case you want to track a satellite that is not in
the KVH predefined list. User-defined satellites can only be
configured via the ADCU’s maintenance port. To configure a user
satellite, information about the satellite must be provided,
including:
•
Satellite name
•
Satellite position (longitude)
•
Transponder information for each of the following
polarizations/frequencies:
- vertical high
- vertical low
- horizontal high
- horizontal low
or
- right
- left
•
Transponder information includes:
- frequency
- symbol rate
- FEC code, and
- network ID (in hexidecimal format)
This information can be obtained from your satellite service
provider or from a number of sites on the Internet, such as
www.satcodx.com.
