Farcaster equipped units are added just like any other unit. Set their default target to the farcaster you want them to transport ships to and their command to Vector. I don't think they have to be Farcaster class units either, classes like Station should work too.

You can also set up navlight subsystems that will automatically switch between red and green when the farcaster's capacitor is ready or not, but you'd have to search the old forum as I forget exactly how that works.
