1 Introduction
1.1 Digital Satellite Television
Your new TracVision C3 satellite antenna is fully compatible with
the Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) satellites, which use the
international standard for digital TV transmission, as well as
Digital Satellite Service (DSS) services, such as DIRECTV. As a
result, you will be able to receive and decode signals from your
chosen satellite services with the proper programming and
hardware (e.g., the IRD [satellite TV receiver]). Your
TracVision C3 is also fully compatible with KVH’s TracNet
™ 2.0
Mobile High-speed Internet System (for more information, please
visit our web site at
www.kvh.com ).
Your TracVision C3 comes with a pre-programmed “satellite
library” of European and North American satellite services.
When configuring the TracVision C3 you may choose a pair of
satellites from the entire library to be active in the system and
with your IRD. For the antenna to track and receive signals from
two satellites, they must be within 10
º longitude of each other in
orbit. As a result, certain satellites can be paired only with certain
other satellites. Tables 1-1 and 1-2 list the possible satellite pairs
that may be selected in Europe and North America. If the satellite
service you wish to receive is not already in the “satellite library,” you
may also add two additional satellites of your choice to the library.
