6.5.2 - FIXED Heading
Fixed Heading Mode should not be used with a WV750 Antenna System under
normal operating conditions.
Warning, changing to the Fixed Heading Mode will significantly increase satellite
acquisition time.
How to Override the Compass
1. Access the HEADING screen as described in section 6.5.1.
2. Look at the Compass Mode and choose a path below:
A. If the controller is currently set to FIXED heading mode, proceed to step
3.
B. If the controller is currently set to COMPASS mode, tap the “MODE”
button to switch the controller to FIXED mode then proceed to step 3.
3. As long as the controller is in FIXED mode, the sections of the compass will
be available to manually set a heading.
Tap the direction that the antenna is facing when the system is stowed. This
will set the True and Rough headings to the correct heading.
Alternately you can also tap on the true heading display and enter an exact
heading value.
The Fixed heading process works the same for all Winegard antennas.
This will tell the system to use the entered value above to make the
calculation of the target satellite vector.
