Although most installations do not require
different satellites than those listed in
, you may set up your
TracVision R5SL/R4SL to track a pair of alternate
satellites.
To do so, you need to connect a PC to the antenna
and use the KVH Flash Update Wizard to install
your alternate satellites. The TracVision R5SL/
R4SL system includes a satellite library that
contains the most commonly used satellites.
Follow the steps below to configure the system to
track satellites from this satellite library.
NOTE:
The Flash Update Wizard is available to
KVH-authorized dealers through the KVH Partner
Portal.
a.
Connect a PC to your TracVision system, as
described in the Flash Update Wizard’s Help
file. Then enter the commands below into the
Wizard’s “Antenna Comms” window.
NOTE:
For details on entering antenna commands,
refer to the Flash Update Wizard’s Help file.
b.
Type
HALT
then press Enter.
c.
Choose your desired satellites from the
satellite library (see Figure B-1).
d.
Type the following command then press
Enter. Be sure to use the proper install
name(s) for your selected satellite(s).
SATINSTALL,<SAT_A_NAME>,
<SAT_B_NAME>
NOTE:
Select the satellite you want to track first as
“SAT_A”. Once the procedure is complete, the
TracVision R5SL/R4SL system will begin tracking
that satellite.
e.
Type
ZAP
then press Enter to restart the
antenna. Wait two minutes for system
startup.
