Setting Sleep Mode
When the vessel has come to a stop and holds its position for one
minute (e.g., at a dock), the antenna unit enters Sleep Mode, which
locks the antenna in place to conserve power. As soon as the vessel
moves beyond a 1° - 2° window or the signal level changes
significantly, Sleep Mode automatically turns off and the system
begins tracking the satellite again (or enters Search Mode to find the
satellite).
Use the flowchart in Figure 3-8 if you wish to disable Sleep Mode, or if
you wish to restore the original Sleep Mode setting.
