9.3 Setting a satellite position
For each satellite position to be entered, work through Points 9.3.1 to
9.3.3. When programming satellite positions, we recommend that you
begin with the satellite in the most easterly position, then work your
way through all the remaining positions in a westerly direction, finis-
hing off with the most extreme westerly satellite position. Your digital
receiver is pre-programmed at the factory for the most commonly
used satellite positions. In addition, you can configure user-defined
satellite positions (User 1 to User 14) for every possible orbital posi-
tion.
