2.4.2VanLink GPS

One of the key functional features of VanLink is its ability to utilize the vehicles current location (Latitude/Longitude), its orientation (Reference to magnetic North), and the static coordinates of each receive site in order to point the dish to the appropriate azimuth. For this feature to be operational, Troll Systems will require a list of each receive site and its coordinates (preferably in DD:MM.MM – Degrees Minutes Hundredths of a Minute) to be programmed into the V750 in advance of system field operation.

Additional sites can be added at any time. The procedure will require an update to both the V750 and TouchStar. Typically, the update to the V750 can be accomplished from the studio provided that there are communications established between the vehicle and TouchStar (hence all of the open ports required).
