* DiSEqC applies to European systems only 3. Turn on the antenna using the switchplate, as pictured in Figure 3-2. 4. (TracVision L3 only) If the vehicle is moving, avoid turning the vehicle for 60 seconds after turning on the antenna to allow the antenna gyro to initialize properly. 3.2 Changing Channels and Switching Between Satellites If you have followed the installation instructions, your system should be set to the active satellite pair of your choice and the system should have downloaded the appropriate channel guides. You must also have a properly configured IRD (if this has not been done, refer to your IRD User’s Manual for instructions for your specific IRD). Your TracVision system is programmed to track either of two satellites, stored in memory as Satellite A and Satellite B. You can use the IRD remote control, the optional TV/SAT Switch, or a PC to select between the two satellites. 3.2.1 Using the IRD Remote Control to Switch Between Satellites When the TracVision L3/S3 system and the IRD have matching configurations, switching from one satellite to the other is as easy as changing the channel using the remote control. TracVision L3/S3 will automatically switch from Satellite A to B and back again as necessary to receive your selected channel. DIRECTV Satellite Subscribers DIRECTV subscribers in certain regions of the United States will require a DSS Plus IRD to receive both satellite and alternative programming. Check with DIRECTV for regional requirements. If connected to the antenna’s RF1 connector, the DSS Plus IRD allows you to switch channels using the remote control. If you are a DIRECTV subscriber, but do not have a DSS Plus IRD, or you are using a multiswitch, use the optional TV/SAT Switch* or a PC, as described in the following sections. * To order a TV/SAT Switch (KVH Part Number 01-0245), please call +1 401 847-3327. Using Your TracVision L3/S3 Using Your TracVision L3/S3 EchoStar subscribers will need to use the optional TV/SAT Switch or a PC to change satellites, as described in the following sections. 3.2.2 Using the TV/SAT Switch to Switch Between Satellites - Optional If you are a DISH 500 customer, or you’re unable to switch between satellites using the IRD remote control, you can use the optional TV/SAT Switch (see Figure 3-3) to easily select between Satellite A and Satellite B. TV/SAT Switch Controls and Indicators The Select button is used for all operator controls. The TV/SAT Switch also has three LED indicators that show its current status. Table 3-1 explains the function of each indicator. Indicator Status Meaning Sat A Blinking green Solid green Wait – Searching for satellite Tracking Satellite A Error Blinking red System problem – Refer to Section 4, “Troubleshooting,” to find the possible cause Sat B Blinking green Solid green Wait – Searching for satellite Tracking Satellite B Connecting the TV/SAT Switch To use the TV/SAT Switch, you must first connect it to the TracVision system. 1. Connect the TV/SAT Switch’s data cable to the maintenance port on the switchplate (see Figure 3-4). Maintenance Port (DB9 Connector) Figure 3-3 TV/SAT Switch Sat A Error Sat B Select Changing Satellites: 1. Push Select button 2. Wait while Sat A or B blinks green 3. Ready when Sat A or Sat B stays solid green Other Indicators: • Both blinking green: initializing • Error light blinking red: system problem Table 3-1 TV/SAT Switch LED Indicators Figure 3-4 Switchplate Maintenance Port 54-0157 Rev. G A Guide to TracVision L3/S3 A Guide to TracVision L3/S3 If you are a DISH 500 customer, you can order the optional TV/SAT Switch – free of charge.

Figure 3-5 Switchplate Maintenance Port 2. The Sat A and Sat B indicators blink while the system initializes. 3. Either the Sat A or Sat B indicator will turn solid green, denoting which satellite is currently being tracked. Using the TV/SAT Switch The TV/SAT Switch is very easy to use. All operations are controlled through the single Select button. To select the second satellite, perform the following steps: 1. Press the Select button on the TV/SAT Switch. 2. The indicator for the current satellite (Sat A or Sat B) extinguishes, while the indicator for the other satellite starts blinking. 3. Once the indicator for the other satellite turns solid green, the TracVision system is tracking the newly selected satellite. You can now use your IRD to choose a channel on the new satellite 3.2.3 Using a PC to Switch Between Satellites If you’re unable to switch between satellites using the IRD remote control, you can use a PC connected to the switchplate’s maintenance port to select between Satellite A and Satellite B. The procedure requires terminal emulation software such as PROCOMM or Windows Terminal or Hyperterminal. Use the settings appropriate to your application. To sw...
