3.3 Watching Television
TracVision L3 is designed to operate whether your vehicle is in
motion or parked. TracVision S3 is designed to operate only
while your vehicle is parked.
Using Your TracVision L3/S3 When Parked
When your vehicle is stopped, it is not necessary for the
TracVision L3/S3 to be turned on. After parking your vehicle and
confirming that the antenna is receiving the satellite signal, you
may turn off the TracVision L3/S3 unit to avoid unnecessary use
of power. Because the LNB receives its power from the IRD, the
antenna will continue to receive the satellite TV signals and relay
them to the IRD.
However, if you plan to change to a channel that is broadcast by
another satellite, TracVision L3/S3 must be turned on so the
antenna can search for, identify, and lock onto the different
satellite.
