Installing Satellites to Track

TracVision 6 can track a variety of DVB-compatible and DSS
(DIRECTV) satellites. The system contains a preprogrammed
library of North American, European, and Latin American
satellites. It also has two open slots that you may use to program
two additional satellites of your choice. Tables 2-6 and 2-7
provide a grid of possible satellite pairs. Two of these satellites
may be selected to reside in the system’s active memory as
Satellites A and B. For Latin American systems, you can choose
one of three satellites: GALAXY3CN, GALAXY3CS, or PAS_9.

At the factory, the system is programmed to track the following
default satellites:

Europe: ASTRA1 (Sat. A) and HOTBIRD (Sat. B)

N. America (US DIRECTV): DSS_101 (Sat. A)
and DSS_119 (Sat. B)

L. America: GALAXY3CN (Sat. A) and NONE (Sat. B)
