Setup and tune in a satellite
The menu options are as follows;
- Mode: position - Most used function. Used to position and store the satellites you have defined in the Satellite configuration menu
- Mode: drive to stored position - as it says, make you dish move to i.e. the satellite you have in the stored position 1 - and then press the GREEN button or select the GO button and press the OK button
- Mode: drive to satellite - like the option above, select the satellite and then press the GREEN button or select the GO button and press the OK button
- Mode: Drive to 0degree - to setup a motek motor
- Mode: Recalculate: for Motek and postioners that support this function
- Mode: Set East limit - use this function to stop your dish moving any further to the East with this software limit. Ideal if you have a bad actuator that tilts the dish over at the point of no return
- Mode: Set West limit - use this function to stop your dish moving any further to the West with this software limit. Ideal if you have a bad actuator that tilts the dish over at the point of no return
- Mode: Disable limits: Removes the EAST / WEST limits you may have set up
- Mode: Enable limits: Just "do it" if you want to enable limits
Satellite: Select a satellite that you defined in the Satellite configuration section and move to it and store its position
Transponder: Select a Transponder that you know has a signal on it
Direction: Use your left arrow and right arrow keys on your remote control to move the dish. When you do this the dish will move either to the East or the West and when the systems sees signal the transponder you have selected, the SNR & AGC will lock like the example above
Store: Store the current position of your dish.
