5.5 Automatic satellite scan

The automatic satellite scan feature only works from West to East. The following explanation assumes that
the reflector has been oriented towards the westernmost satellite (Hispasat 1 at 30° West in our example)
after having set up the East and West limits (see 5.4).

Satellites which are located beyond the East and West limits can not be selected by the automatic
satellite scan. For this, you may need to extend the trajectory limits (see 5.4).

First of all, select the type of motor you Are using: A for PFA reflectors with actuator, or B for offset reflectors
with H/H mount.
