search cycle will repeat until the antenna receives the lock
signal from the modem or the DVB transponder of the target
satellite is decoded by the antenna.
- Search 2: is reserved for future use.
- Search 3: a search pattern 3 will automatically be initiated
when AGC/SIG falls below the current tracking level
threshold value. Once the desired signal is found and above
the predened tracking threshold, the ACU will enter to
tracking mode.
- Tracking: antenna is tracking the target satellite.
- Initialize: antenna or ACU is initializing.
- Block: satellite signal is being blocked.
