finding the transponder data for a specific satellite, or if no transponder data exists. The
controller will then peak on the modem signal when the satellite is found. RF search should be
used as a last resort after DVB and or DVB with reference satellite.
AZ Window Size
The Search Window is the area of the sky which the iNetVu
desired Satellite. It uses a rectangular window and searches for the Satellite using smaller
concentric windows until the desired Satellite is found. The default Azimuth (Horizontal) range is
60 on each side of the Target Point. Increasing the size of the Search Window will increase the
ability to find the desired Satellite, although increasing the Search Window will also increase the
search time.
RF Override/Threshold
Used by the iNetVu ® Mobile Software to begin a signal optimization process for peaking on a
Satellite signal after initially locating it. This field should only be used if the RF threshold is to be
overridden. Ka Band systems with single TRIA cable will have the RF threshold set to 75 by
default (service dependent), this allows the RF Signal to be in operation range (RF Signal==70
on iNetVu Controls window) thus allowing the search process to begin. The RF Threshold can
also be manually set to any value ranging from 40 to 60 which will display the true value of RF
Signal on the iNetVu Controls window. Setting the RF Threshold to 30 will put the search into a
step-through-search moving the AZ axis in small incremental steps, this method increases the
search time.
Enable Reference Satellite
If this checkbox is selected, the Reference Satellite Option becomes active.
The reference satellite option is useful when the user cannot find a DVB transponder on the
desired target satellite. The user may select a reference satellite with a known DVB
Transponder from the configured list of Beams that are already saved or a new Beam can be
configured. The iNetVu
that point to the desired target satellite, and peak on the modem signal. Does not work if search
method selected is RF Search.
Inclined Orbit (Re-peak Time)
Enabling this option will allow the system to maintain signal with an inclined orbital
satellite. The user may select the time difference between each re-peak on the inclined
orbital satellite without disabling the transmitter and maximizing on the signal strength.
This feature has been modified to support Ka platforms' that shift off signal due to
shifting ground and or environment conditions. The inclined mode routine will exit its
operation once the Stop button is depressed leaving the configuration selection enabled.
This option will not work properly if Motion Protection is enabled at the same time,
disable Motion Protection when inclined option is enabled.
