The Site List Editor

The Site List Editor lets you define sites, in addition to your own local site, for which In-View passes of polar-orbiting satellites can be listed. Once defined, these "alternate receiver sites" become available as options on the Alternate Receiver Sites list of the In-View Search Criteria dialog box. You can then select a site from this list as part of your in-view search criteria, and the In-View pass list will show passes at that site. 

Any sites defined on the Site List Editor will also be available as options on the Receiver Site menu of the Show Coverage dialog box. The map in the Show Coverage dialog box changes to reflect the site selected from the Receiver Site menu, and you can then select passes for that site from the In-View pass list to display their coverage on the map.

You can also use the Site List Editor to delete alternate receiver sites from TeraCapCon and to change existing sites.


To define a new alternate receiver site:

  1. On the Site List Editor dialog box, click on the New button.
  2. In the Name field, enter a name for the site.
  3. Enter the coordinates for the site in the Latitude and Longitude fields.
  4. Click on the Save button to save the new site definition.
  5. Click on the Close button to close the Site List Editor dialog box.

The site you define will now be available on the Alternate Receiver Site list of the In-View Search Criteria dialog box, so you can select it as a site from that list.  It will also be available on the Receiver Site menu of the Show Coverage dialog box, so you can select it as a site from that list.


To delete an alternate receiver site from TeraCapCon:

  1. Use the Next or Previous button of the Site List Editor to cycle through existing receiver sites.
  2. When the site you want to delete appears in the Name field, click on the Delete button.
  3. Click on the Close button to close the Site List Editor dialog box.
