User-Defined Satellites

C
The satellite library in the TracVision antenna
includes two slots for user-defined satellites
(USER 1 and USER 2). You can program one or
both of these library slots for any satellite you
wish that is not already set up in the library.
To configure a user-defined satellite, you will
need to program into the antenna the following
information about the satellite (see Figure 34):
• Satellite name
• Satellite longitudinal position
• Transponder information for all
combinations of polarization and band:
• vertical high
• vertical low
• horizontal high
• horizontal low
OR
• right
• left
• Frequency
• Symbol rate
• FEC code rate
• Network ID
• Decoder type
NOTE: You can find this satellite information on the
web at www.lyngsat.com
