Switch-
• Turn ON the PC and click
Start > Programs > vtLite Mobile.
Note! VtLite can only be used on one PC at a time.
1 The satellite search program is initialized.
See also "
Satellite search" in Getting Started.
2 NWC Voyager starts searching for last used
satellite/elevation (Ocean Region) as default. If not
found the system searches for the 2nd last used.
3 When receiving a satellite signal, a signal strength
bar will appear in the search window.
The longer the signal bar or higher the signal
strength indicator value, the better the signal quality.
The maximum marker indicates the highest signal
strength achieved during the current search.
Note! It is recommended that the signal strength
reading (S/N=Signal/Noise ratio) should be at least
535. The antenna will automatically fine-tune to the
best signal and accept it.
Clicking Seek starts the search again, see also step 5.
If required, select a specific satellite by clicking New.
