No-Transmit Zones
Establishing No-Transmit Zones
To configure a no-transmit zone, follow these steps:
1. Identify the necessary azimuth range for the zone (see
“Identify the Azimuth Range”).
2. Identify the necessary elevation range for the zone (see
“Identify the Elevation Range”).
3. At the TracPhone V7-HTS web interface, configure a no-
transmit zone for that combination of azimuth and elevation
ranges (see “Configure the No-Transmit Zone(s) at the Web
Interface” on page 35).
Identify the Azimuth Range
First, you need to determine the necessary azimuth range for the no-
transmit zone(s). You will need to enter, in clockwise order, the
beginning and ending azimuths that define the outer boundaries of the
zone, relative to the antenna’s forward arrow, which should be
pointing toward the bow.
NOTE: Each no-transmit zone must span at least 5º. Therefore, be sure to set
beginning and ending azimuths at least 5º apart.
