System Operation Modes
NOTE:
When the power-up sequence is completed, the system is automatically locked onto the last
satellite that was selected and saved prior to system shutdown.
In principle, after proper installation, configuration, and alignment, the OceanTRx
TM
4-500
system functions completely automatically.
Upon power-up, the system acquires and tracks the last selected satellite without any
manual intervention from a human operator. This process entails the utilization of several
lower-level modes of operation: satellite acquisition, tracking, validation, searching, and
re-acquisition.
Nonetheless, the advanced OceanTRx
TM
4-500 HMI allows you to activate a number of
operating modes independently, for purposes of installation, configuration, alignment,
and maintenance.
