No-Transmit Zones
Establishing No-Transmit Zones
To configure a no-transmit zone, follow these steps:
1. Identify the necessary azimuth range for the zone (see
“Identify the Azimuth Range” ).
2. At the TracPhone V3-IP web interface, configure a no-transmit
zone for that azimuth range (see
“Configure the No-Transmit
Zone(s) at the Web Interface” on page 34 ).
Identify the Azimuth Range
First, you need to determine the necessary azimuth range for the no-
transmit zone(s). You will need to enter, in clockwise order, the
beginning and ending azimuths that define the outer boundaries of the
zone,
relative to the antenna’s forward arrow , which should be
pointing toward the bow.
NOTE: Each no-transmit zone must span at least 5º. Therefore, be sure to set
beginning and ending azimuths at least 5º apart.
