You can find exact coordinates of your location on the map at. The first time the software is started, it is launched in the full screen mode. Wait for TLE update performance and click OK. A user can check if the time is set correctly at Orbitron configurationĭuring the first launch, the software prompts a user to update the satellite position from the Internet, i.e. In order to implement correct operation of the software it is necessary, that the time zone and exact time are set correctly in the computer. It is desirable to update such data at least once a week and before important sessions. It is very important that the software applies up-to-date data about orbit parameters. A user can also choose between displaying local time and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time). The latter mode makes it very convenient to check how a satellite will move across the sky during a certain session. The “Main” tab contains the control box, where a user can select time for which the display shows “currently” for the current time and “simulation” for any arbitrary time value. The clock and program status signals are also displayed in the right part. The main elements of the interface are represented by the list of spacecraft units (right), image of satellite location projections and orbits on the Earth map (top), controls (bottom) and images of units over the horizon at the bottom right. Orbitron allows users to get a schedule of satellite overflights.
