Setup – Band Selection
7. Setup – Band Selection
To properly control the band selection of the LNB(s) mounted on the antenna the TRACK DISP (Tracking Display) parameter
must be set correctly. Which value the TRACK DISP parameter is set to depends on the hardware configuration of the antenna
pedestal.
The xx09-17 and xx09-33 antenna pedestals come with the waveguide diplexer and LNB to provide the additional Co-Pol RXIF
output to the Cross-Pol/Co-Pol select coax switch (all of the systems come with the switch and coax installed, so you can easily
upgrade the antenna with the Co-Pol hardware).
The TRACK DISP parameter controls Tone, Voltage and Aux functions remotely on the antenna pedestal. Voltage and Tone are
used to select the desired band of dual-band, tri-band and quad-band LNBs. The Aux function controls the Cross-Pol/Co-Pol
select switch.
Sea Tel provides quad-band LNBs as a default LNBs on the 09 Series antennas, therefore, the default TRACK DISP parameter for
Cross-Pol only systems is 0170 and 0130 for 09 antennas with Cross-Pol AND Co-Pol LNBs.
7.1. Cross-Pol Only Single-Band LNB
Use Xp 18 when you want Cross-Pol output to be routed to below decks (use the 18VDC setting to minimize
current drawn by the LNB).
