SAT-Flare Tracker 3D
1.0 SEARCH FLARES / TRANSITS - WINDOW
This window allows
the user to search either flare or transit events. The search is performed only among the
selected satellites (please see the Satellite window to learn how to
select satellites). The program usually search flares instead of transits, unless the Transit Mode in the Settings
menu bar entry is selected. The window, which is shown in the following
picture, contains two parameters:
- Searching Interval: it is the time interval to be used for the search, starting from the current program time.
- Maximum Distance: it represents the maximum distance of the flare/transit centre to be reported.

The window also contains the option:
- Set found satellite as working satellite: if this option is active, when a satellite is found flaring / transiting, it will be automatically set as working satellite.
The window contains the following buttons:
- Find First: this button starts the search from the current program time.
- Find Next: this button starts the search of the next event.
- Satellite List: this button opens the window for the satellite selection (Satellite window).
- Abort: this button interrupts the search process.
- Close: this button closes the window.
