In the example above, the receiver serial number is BMWR19050037L.
To activate a subscription, the receiver must be powered and tracking an L-Band TerraStar satellite prior to the
planned activation time. Use the ASSIGNLBANDBEAM command to configure the receiver to track the Ter-
raStar satellite.
ASSIGNLBANDBEAM auto
To confirm tracking of an L-Band signal, log the L-Band tracking status information by entering the following com-
mand:
log lbandtrackstata
#LBANDTRACKSTATA,COM1,0,73.5,FINESTEERING,1769,328196.000,00000000,29fd,

3.6 Terrain Compensation

The Terrain Compensation feature corrects for errors in position caused by the roll and pitch of the vehicle. The
SMART Antenna senses the vehicle's roll and pitch angle and, with the user-entered "height above ground", com-
pensates the position output to give the position under the vehicle rather than at the antenna.
Vehicle motion is required to compute and obtain terrain-compensated positions.
