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.
