Advanced Features
Favorites List
Usually the standard TLEs from the internet contain far more satellites than you're interested in. More
satellites equals more time to search and more time to predict future passes.
In the VIEW ALL page, each satellite has a checkbox next to it. Check of each satellite you are
interested in and click SAVE at the bottom. Now only those satellites that you've selected will be
considered when you search and predict future passes. This greatly improves performance.
Note that having no satellites is the same and including them all.
Custom TLE Files
Instead of using a URL as a source of TLEs you can instead upload a file. The file must be a standard
ASCII TLE text file and must not contain any headers such as comments or other fluff, eg. it must start
with a satellite name. The uploaded file will replace any stored TLEs. The favorites option will work
with a custom TLE.
Auto Update TLE
If enabled, the S.A.T. will automatically download a copy of the TLEs from the same url that they were
last downloaded from. TLEs will only be downloaded while the S.A.T. is idle. It's also going to
check exactly the number of days you enter. If you last downloaded TLEs on Oct 1st at 9am, then it
will try on Oct 3rd at 9am. If the S.A.T. is not idle at that exact time it will try when it becomes idle.
You cannot use the custom TLE function with automatic updates. Be sure to disable the automatic
updates by entering a zero in the AUTO UPDATE field.
