Using Antenna Visibility

Antenna Visibility is accessed by right-clicking on the desired satellite antenna

and selecting Properties. The antenna properties window will open. Click on the

Visibility tab to display the antenna visibility window. The figure below shows

the antenna visibility flag as defaulted by the VMS. The default values ensure

that the entire spectrum is available so that there are no limitations in effect

when this feature is not used.

An antenna with these settings is essentially clear for all satellite bands. Under

most conditions, it is advisable to leave the visibility settings at the default

values. Should a network application call for the use of antenna visibility, start

by configuring the desired transmit and receive frequencies for the antenna to be

able to use, as illustrated below using standard Ku-Band.

Note: The VMS is not limited to any particular frequency band.
