rounded to one digit after the comma. The result of the division is added to the figure in
degrees.
VCR
Example: Coordinates of Daun
Latitude 50° 11‘(45“) N
Longitude 06° 50‘ (10‘‘) E 11/60
48
BG = 50 + 11/60
BG = 50 + 0,2 (rounded)
BG = 50,2
In the menu for the geographic latitude, enter the value rounded to one digit after the comma
(50,2).
In the same manner, the decimal value of the longitide is calculated.
9.3 Set the Satellite position
Carry out the Sections 9.3.1 to 9.3.3 consecutively for every satellite position to be added.
When programming the satellite positions, it is recommended that one starts with the outer
eastern most satellite. After this, add all other required positions proceeding in a western
direction until you have reached the outermost western satellite position. Your digital receiver
has already been channeld for the conventional satellite positions. In addition to this, you can
configure user.defined satellite positions for any given orbital position (User 1 to User 13).

When installing the external system, the motor must be in the reference position (0°). You
can therefore rotate the motor at any time to the this position (0°) with the “Go to refe-
rence position” function.
> Pressing the green function key Ref.position will turn the antenna into the refe-
rence position automatically.
