Define Satellite Window
With direction from NavCom, use this window on the StarFire tab to add or delete one licensed
user-defined StarFire satellite to be available for automatic or manual selection. The
user-defined satellite is a new satellite in the StarFire network or a backup StarFire satellite.

Only one satellite can be user-defined. A new user-defined satellite overwrites
the previous user-defined satellite.

Failed Search
Whether from loss of reception or lack of initial acquisition, after a 5 minute failed search for a
StarFire satellite, the receiver automatically searches for another available StarFire satellite.
This functionality only applies to:
 Receivers licensed for both StarFire Net 1 and Net 2
 Receivers only licensed for StarFire Net 1 in areas where signals from 2 StarFire satellites
overlap and may be available.
