2. If you are using HyperTerminal, open
HyperTerminal and establish the following
settings:
• Bits per second: 9600
• Data bits: 8
• Parity: None
• Stop bits: 1
• Flow control: None
If you are using the KVH Flash Update Wizard,
double-click the “KVH Flash Update Wizard”
shortcut on your computer’s desktop to start the
wizard. Then go to the “Select board to flash”
screen. You do not need to flash the antenna to
configure the satellites; you will simply enter
commands in the
“Command”
box.
3. Apply power to the TracVision R5/R4 system and
allow the system to complete full initialization.
Data should be scrolling on the PC display to
identify any system problems detected. If no data
is seen, recheck your connections and the terminal
software setup.
Installing the Satellite of Choice from the Satellite Library
Once the data connection has been made between the PC and the
TracVision R5/R4, you must assign the satellites you wish to
have in the satellite pair by typing the following commands. (If
you are using HyperTerminal, type the commands in the
HyperTerminal window. If you are using the KVH Flash Update
Wizard, type the commands in the “Command” box.)
1. Type HALT and press Enter to place the antenna in
Idle Mode.
2. Select which preprogrammed satellites you wish
to assign. Table 2-5 lists the satellite names that are
in the preprogrammed North American and
European satellite library.
