OVERRIDING GPS
Sometimes you will want to override your GPS settings if GPS can not be found… such
as being parked inside of a building where the dish may be pointing out a door, but the
GPS can not get a fix on your location.
Simply enter you GPS location and press on Calculate.
OVERRIDING SATELLITE TRANSPONDERS
The “SATELLITE:” item in the override screen is normally used for advanced cross-pol
alignments. Please refer to the MAGELLAN Activation Manual for more information on
cross-pol and switching satellite transponders.
OVERRIDING THE VEHICLE HEADING
If the dish is searching the wrong part of the sky, you on-board compass my be giving the
MAGELLAN wrong information. The Input Data window shows the “Vehicle heading”
which should be the direction you vehicle is headed. If you know it is not, you may
override the Vehicle Heading in the above screen. It’s always good to have a handheld
compass to know if your dish compass is fairly accurate.
