Using SignalTrack
MISSION DATA
A mission is defined as configuration of SignalTrack at a given time. This includes the maps in the
map menu, the channels, the sites, and all the options in the set in the Options dialog. When
launched SignalTrack will load the last used mission parameters. However, you can also save the
mission parameters and retrieve them at a later time. This feature allows the same version of
SignalTrack to be used on a number of different direction finder networks if desired. It also allows
you to save a working configuration prior to making any changes to the network and then reverting
back to the working configuration if the changes are not working correctly.
To create a new mission select New Mission... from the File menu. The following dialog will be
displayed. Select Blank Mission if you want to start with a blank slate. If you want to use the
existing parameters for the new mission file select Make new mission from existing Mission. A
standard save dialog box will be displayed for you to name the mission file. Selecting either new
mission options will cause the Configuration Wizard to be executed.
At any point you may save the mission parameters by selecting Save or Save As... from the File
menu. To open a previously saved mission file, simply select Open Mission... from the file menu.
You can also double click on a mission file (*.dop) from Windows Explorer and SignalTrack will
launch with the selected mission loaded.
