Commissioning the IRD

Please refer to the user manual that accompanied your IRD for

instructions on properly commissioning the system.

EchoStar Commissioning Issues

EchoStar IRDs that have not been commissioned within several

months of manufacture require additional steps to complete

the process. Refer to Appendix E for complete details.

2.4 Selecting the Active Satellite

As noted previously, TracVision 4 can track a variety of DVB-

compatible and DSS satellites. The system contains a

preprogrammed library of North American satellites. It also has

two open slots that you may use to program two additional

satellites of your choice. Two of these satellites may be selected to

reside in the system’s active memory as Satellites A and B. Once

this is done, a simple command via the maintenance port will tell

the antenna to track one or the other, making it easy to switch

between the satellites of your choice. Table 2-4 provides a grid of

possible North American satellite pairs.

The satellites listed in TracVision 4’s preprogrammed satellite

library will be sufficient for most North American users.

However, if you wish to install one or two user-defined satellites,

proceed to Section 2.4.2, “Programming User-defined Satellites.”

After configuring the user-defined satellites, return to the satellite

installation process in Section 2.4.1, “Installing Your Selected

Satellites.”
