2.5 Selecting the Active Satellite
As noted previously, TracVision C3 can track a variety of DVB-
compatible and DSS (DIRECTV) satellites. The system contains a
preprogrammed library of European and North American
satellites. It also has two open slots that you may use to program
two additional satellites of your choice. Tables 2-3 and 2-4
provide listings of the possible satellite pairs. Two of these
satellites may be selected to reside in the system’s active memory
as Satellites Aand B.
