9711-92 Ku-Band TXRX Setup – Searching
10-5
10.2.5. SEARCH INC
Sets size of search pattern increment. Units are in pedestal step resolution (24 steps per degree). The
suggested setting is equal to the full 3dB beamwidth of your antenna. Default value is 30 these systems.
To manually update, press the LEFT arrow key to bring the cursor under the least significant character.
Continue to move the cursor until the desired character to be edited is underscored (selected). Use the UP or
DOWN arrow keys to increment or decrement the selected character.
Use the LEFT or RIGHT arrow key to move the cursor left or right to select other characters to modify. When
you are finished modifying press ENTER to execute the new value OR press NEXT to abort and exit setup
mode.
10.2.6. SEARCH LIMIT
Sets the overall peak to peak size of the search pattern. Units are in pedestal step resolution (24 steps per
degree). Default value is 200 for these systems.
After you have optimized your Targeting (refer to Optimizing Targeting) you may wish to reduce the size of
the Search pattern to avoid Tracking on an adjacent satellite (ie set to 50% of its default value so that in the
future it will only search half as far from your targeted position).
To manually update, press the LEFT arrow key to bring the cursor under the least significant character.
Continue to move the cursor until the desired character to be edited is underscored (selected). Use the UP or

threshold. Units are in seconds. Range is 0-255 seconds. Default setting is 30 seconds. A setting of 0
disables the automatic search initiation.

MUST
be set for the desired azimuth sweep speed of a
No Gyro
search or the sweep
increment dimension of an
Inclined Orbit
search (refer to the search pattern information above).
To manually update, press the LEFT arrow key to bring the cursor under the least significant character.
Continue to move the cursor until the desired character to be edited is underscored (selected). Use the UP or
