The “Fast” setting is typically set to a value at or above the maximum speed that the antenna axis
can move. Setting a value higher than the maximum actual speed has no effect, ill or otherwise.
Common values are in the area of 1 to 6 degrees per second.
The “Slow” setting is typically set to a very low value. This allows very fine adjustments to be made
such that accurate fine peaking on that axis can be easily verified or emulated. Common values are
in the area of 0.1 to 2 degrees per second.
Manual Control Allow Modem Tx. makes transmitting from modem possible in manual mode.
Typically this is not recommended, given the possibility of unintended interference and should be
used with caution.
The Step Mode Sample Delay parameter is the delay in ms between testing and retrying the step jog
mode move.
