Installation manual

connected, reboot everything and try again).

For an explanation of the MAGELLAN Administrative Screen, please visit APPENDIX A of this

manual.

TRICK - REMOVING THE ANNOYING CLICKING ON REFRESH – The MAGELLAN Main screen is constantly

refreshing itself and this makes an annoying clicking sound. This is an Internet Explorer oddity, but the good news is that this

sound may be deactivated. To do so, open up the Windows Control panel (from the START button) and select Sounds and

Audio Devices (XP) or Sounds and Multimedia (Windows 95-98-2000). Select the SOUNDS tab at the top of the window.

Scroll down to the Program Events window until you see the “Windows Explorer” section. Highlight the “Start Navigation”

listing. Now use the drop down menu to select “None” and then click on Apply. That’s it! The refresh clicking will

disappear… Unfortunately, this is a system wide event and Windows does not have a sound fix for individual web pages.

STEP 5 – CALIBRATE THE COMPASS

Before you can have the dish accurately find the satellite, you must calibrate the compass. To do this,

you’ll need a handheld magnetic compass or at least know the direction the vehicle is headed.
