TracVision G8 Owner’s Manual - Guide to Technical Information
Satellite Library
Your TracVision G8 includes a pre-programmed satellite library
of North American, European, and Latin American satellite
services. When configuring the TracVision G8, you may choose a
pair of satellites from the library to be active in the system and
with your IRD.
Table 1-1 lists the possible satellite pairs that may be selected in
North America, and Table 1-2 lists the satellites that can be
programmed in Europe (as long as the paired satellites are within
range of the TracVision antenna). In Latin America, the system
can track either Galaxy_8W or Galaxy_8E to receive DIRECTV
Latin America service (Latin American LNB required). If the
satellite service you wish to receive is not listed in the satellite library,
you may add two additional satellites of your choice to the library.
TracVision G8’s default satellite
pairs are:
N. America (US DIRECTV):
DSS_101 & DSS_119
Europe:
Astra1 & HotbirdWB
L. America (DIRECTV LA):
Galaxy_8W & None
