• 1308_17K, 1070_6K, 1230_14K, 1350_20K… are the transponders. Note how most satellites
have more than one transponder for that satellite. Select any transponder.
You must press on the “CALCULATE” button
to record your selection. The main screen will
automatically appear.
Now click on “Find Satellite”.
You can watch the Azimuth, Elevation and Skew angles change in the admin window.
The dish should find the satellite and perform and pass a “cross pol” in about 3 to 7 minutes. Please
review APPENDIX D for more information on what “Cross Pol”, or “ACP” is. Once the dish has
passed cross pol, you may begin to commission the DW6000 modems.
TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS - If the dish fails to find satellite, try changing do a different transponder
on that satellite (see above). If the dish does find satellite but doesn’t pass cross pol… Try pressing on
Find Satellite again and giving the dish a 2
nd
chance. If it again finds satellite, but again fails to pass
cross pol, then you will need to perform the cross pol yourself, and you can use any Satellite, (not just
G4R). Instructions on how to do this are in APPENDIX D – PERFORMING A CROSS POL
MANUALLY. This is also a good place to learn about what Cross Pol is.
STEP 7 – COMMISSIONING THE DW6000 MODEMS
Once upon a time you had to find a phone connection to connect to your computer’s modem to
commission a set of Direcway modems. As you can imagine, this was extremely inconvenient for a
mobile installation. Today however, the commissioning process can take place anywhere you can a
Direcway satellite, which is perfect for mobile installs. You can literally be anywhere and install and
commission a MAGELLAN system.
Okay,.. before you start the commissioning, make sure that you have your SAN & PIN number from
Ground Control.
From the last step, the MAGELLAN is locked on satellite and has passed cross pol. Now we want to
bring up the Direcway Setup window by typing in this URL:
http://192.168.0.1/fs/registration/setup.html
TIP - You should have the URL in your Favorites list for easy access.
