AUTO TRIM
The Auto Trim function will automatically calculate and set the required Azimuth and Elevation trim offset
parameters required to properly calibrate the antennas display to the mechanical angle of the antenna
itself, while peaked ON satellite.
After locating the satellite, with Tracking ON,
wait at least 2 minutes
before performing the AUTO TRIM,
this will allow sufficient time for the antenna to peak up on the satellite signal and for the targeting loops to
completely stabilize. It is equally important that you verify that the system is tracking the CORRECT satellite
(verify a RX lock indication on the satellite modem).
NOTE: The AUTO TRIM feature is NOT allowed unless all of these conditions are met:
The antenna must be actively tracking a satellite (AGC above threshold)
AND
The antenna must have positive SAT ID (RX lock input from the Satellite Modem)
AND
The elevation angle of the antenna must be LESS than 83 degrees
AND
The antenna must NOT be set for Inclined Orbit Search
AND
The system must NOT be set for “No Gyro” mode.
