TracVision 6 Technical Manual
Satellite Library
Your TracVision 6 includes a pre-programmed satellite library of
North American, European, and Latin American satellite
services. When configuring the TracVision 6, you may choose a
pair of satellites from the library to be active in the system and
with your IRD.
For the antenna to track and receive signals from two satellites,
they must be within 10º longitude of each other in orbit. As a
result, certain satellites can be paired only with certain other
satellites. Tables 1-1 and 1-2 list the possible satellite pairs that
may be selected in North America and Europe. In Latin America,
the system can track Galaxy3CN, Galaxy3CS, or PAS_9 (Latin
American LNB required). If the satellite service you wish to receive is
not listed in the satellite library, you may add two additional satellites
of your choice to the library.
TracVision 6’s default satellite pairs
are:
N. America (US DIRECTV):
DSS_101 & DSS_119
Europe: ASTRA1 & HOTBIRD
L. America (DIRECTV LA):
GALAXY3CN & NONE
