The Azimuth Search Window is the horizontal search area of the Mount
after a Reference Satellite has been located. The D3 will determine the
calculated relative location of the Target Satellite from the Reference
Satellite Location. The D3 Controller will begin a search for the Target
Satellite from the low side of the Azimuth Search Window and continue to
move the Dish Azimuth higher from this location until it reaches the end
of the Azimuth Search Window. Elevation will then move either up or
down and then Azimuth will return to the other end of the window. This
will continue until the Target Satellite has been found or the entire search
window has been searched. A value of 10 in this window will allow the
azimuth to search 5 degrees above and below the calculated Target
location.
The Default value for Azimuth Search Window is 10. This value can be
narrowed if the vehicle is always very level, but not recommended. If the
Mount/Dish is placed on a Skid or Pallet and the ground is not level
increasing this value may be necessary.
Elevation Search Window (10)
The Elevation Search Window is the vertical search area of the Mount
after a Reference Satellite has been located. The D3 will determine the
calculated relative location of the Target Satellite from the Reference
Satellite Location. The D3 Controller will begin a search for the Target
Satellite in the middle of the Elevation Search Window and continue to
move the Dish Elevation higher and lower from this location at the end of
every Azimuth pass until the total Value set in this window has been
searched. I.E. a value of 10 in this window will allow the elevation to
search 5 degrees above and below the calculated Target location.
The Default value for Elevation Search Window is 10. This value can be
narrowed if the vehicle is always very level, but not recommended. If the
Mount/Dish is placed on a Skid or Pallet and the ground is not level
increasing this value may be necessary.
Motion Stow (Disabled)
Motion Stow is initiated when the Tilt (accelerometer) Sensors detect
motion other than mild rocking caused by wind. The D3 Controller must
be on for Motion Stow to work.
NOTE: It is important to know that some vehicles may disable the AC
power when the ignition has been turned on. If the DC Power Supply that
runs the D3 is on this AC Power circuit then Motion Stow can not work.
