NBIF SCPC mode may be selected for tracking narrow band signals.
This is not normally needed for tracking satellite TV signals.
3 When the desired choice is displayed, press the SAVE key to save the parameters for this
SAT. This saves the FEC rate to use for this SAT.
4 If you want to edit any of the default values that are loaded with preset, press the ▼ arrow
key to go to the next sub-menu parameter.
5 If you do not want to edit any other sub-menu parameters, press SAVE again to exit the sub-
menu and return to the SAT main menu display. From there you can press the ▼ arrow key
to go to next SAT numeric menu choice or to the Factory Settings menu choice.
5.2.3.8. NID
Enter or edit the best Network ID 4 digit HEX value for the receiver to use to Identify & track this
satellite.
1 Press the NEXT key to SELECT this sub-menu parameter for adjustment.
2 A cursor will appear under the rightmost digit. Press ▲ & ▼ arrow keys to
increment/decrement this digit (only valid HEX values 0-F will be displayed).
3 Press the NEXT key to move the cursor to the digit to the left. Press ▲ & ▼ arrow keys to
increment/decrement this digit.
4 Continue editing until all 4 digits have been set to the desired NID for this satellite selection.
Press the SAVE key to save the NID parameter for this SAT.
5 If you want to edit any of the other default values that are loaded with preset, press the ▼
arrow key to go to the next sub-menu parameter.
6 If you do not want to edit any other sub-menu parameters, press SAVE again to exit the sub-
menu and return to the SAT main menu display. From there you can press the ▼ arrow key
to go to next SAT numeric menu choice or to the Factory Settings menu choice.
5.2.3.9. POL TRIM
Individual Polarization Trim offset adjustment to optimize the Auto-Polarization on this satellite.
Some satellite beams aimed at certain geographic areas are purposely skewed in polarization.
During initial setup of this satellite selection, you will have to trim/offset auto-polarization by the
amount of skew of the satellite beam. Once this adjustment has been set, and saved, auto-
polarization will keep the polarization optimized during ship motion and geographic travel. Range
of acceptable input is +/- 40 degrees.
If you do NOT know what amount of offset is required for this satellite refer to the procedure in
paragraph 5.3.
If you know what amount of +/- polarization offset is needed for this SAT, continue with the steps
below:
1 Press the NEXT key to SELECT this sub-menu parameter for adjustment.
2 A cursor will appear under the rightmost digit. Press ▲ arrow key to increment the Pol Trim
plus one degree. Press ▼ arrow key to decrement the Pol Trim minus one degree.
3 Press the SAVE key to save the POL TRIM parameter for this SAT.
