3. Status
The satellite acquiring status is displayed. Global Beam is used for tracking the
satellites.
In order to switch satellites, open Main -> Satellite search, and click Search for the
satellite you wish to switch to. You cannot search for the satellite you are currently
acquiring.
Make sure to place a tick for “Search all satellite automatically” in Search Option so
that when the satellite signal is interrupted, a satellite will be searched for across all
ocean areas.
If no tick is placed, searches will be made in the selected ocean area.
