4.1. Stopping the Tracking function in harbours
If the boat is in a harbour, the tracking function can be deactivated to stop the tracking (noise-reduction).
Proceed as follows:
1. Press

repeatedly until the display flashes. You are in the main menu.
2. To go to the Setup menu, press

repeatedly until the display shows
Setup
(flashing), then press

Enter password, see chapter 3.4. If the password is correct you are in the Setup menu with
Tracking
on the display.
3. Press

to select, and press

to switch between
ON
and
OFF
. The tracking function must be in
OFF
position to be deactivated. Confirm with

.
4. The display returns to
Tracking
. Press

repeatedly until the display shows
quit
. Confirm with

. The display returns to
Setup
.
Now you are back in the main menu and can switch to other satellites or make adjustments in the Setup
menu.
!!
When the
Tracking
function is deactivated, the antenna does not track the satellite, so it is possible
that the TV picture sometimes can deteriorate or drop out. A realignment with the satellite is always
possible: Press

repeatedly until the display shows a flashing
Sat X
( whereas X is the respective
number of the selected satellite). Confirm with

.
5. Satellites
5.1. Adding new satellites
The search and storage of new satellites on the ship must be done in the harbour in calm waters! For
every satellite at least one channel must be preprogrammed in the receiver to control the satellite position
of the antenna unit by means of the TV picture quality. Make sure the preprogrammed TV station for the
desired satellite is turned on at the receiver, as the system stops at each receivable satellite. The satellite
can be identified by the quality of the TV picture.
Please proceed as follows:
1. To go to the Setup menu, press

repeatedly until the display shows
Setup
(flashing), then press

.
Enter password, see chapter 3.4. If the password is correct you are in the Setup menu with the display
showing:
Tracking
.

appears on the display. Press

to select. For two seconds
Search?
appears and changes to
Sat X
.
!!
New Sat
only appears in the display, if free satellite storage positions are available. In case all storage
positions are occupied, the less required ones have to be deleted first (see chapter 5.3).
Now you have the possibility to choose between band-tracking and channel-tracking .
The advantage of the channel-tracking mode is the ability to calculate and adjust the elevation angle in
realtime. Among others a selection of the measurement frequency is available. By this method the
antenna can get prevented of external interfering radiation. With the new devoloped additional sensor-
tracking system it is also possible to track the satellite when you lose the signal from the satellite (due
to a passing boat, buildings on shore, bridges, or superstructures on own boat). This feature also helps
to regain the satellite even faster.
Whereas the band-tracking mode can achieve a better tracking result.
