Value to Divide the rad A/D value to produce a sensor
value. The formula for producing a final value is: ((raw
number*10000)/scale factor)
The offset added to the converter A/D value.
Number of seconds to wait for valid signal data from a
signal device.
Cross Polarization Disable
Flag indicating that automatic & manual cross pol
should be disabled. This is usually set to no.
The Line Scan parameters establish the overall height and number of lines used in the standard
Acquisition raster scan. Line Scan Pol Adjust Flag – This indicates that the Pol should be adjusted during
a line scan. Usually set to Yes.
The Scan Width parameter sets the width of the AZ Line Scan used for SatTant as well as Target Satellite
Acquisition purposes. The scan width should be based primarily on the assumed accuracy of the
Heading Source. The scan width for each valid Heading source (see Section 6.3.3) can be set
independently using these parameters. If SatTant is selected as the Heading source, then the Compass
Scan Width value will be used for the SatTant scan and the Target Satellite will be acquired directly
without scanning.
Pitch Inc Offset & Roll Inc Offset are factory settings where access is reserved for field service
requirements. Consult AvL technical staff before making changes.
Motor Offset - Because of variations in manufacturing tolerance, it occasionally becomes necessary
to add a small angular value to correct for mechanical error in the axis. This should not be adjusted
unless the system has been repaired. (includes Abs Encoder Offset)
Motor Scale Factor - Because of variations in manufacturing tolerance, it occasionally becomes
necessary to change the scale factor to correct for mechanical error in the axis. This should not be
adjusted unless the system has been repaired. (includes Abs Encoder Scale Factor)
Signal wait time – If signal device (modem. beacon receiver etc.) has not provided a valid signal and wait
time has been exceeded, the controller will then proceed to the secondary, then tertiary acquisition
method. Should these also fail to acquire, the controller will present the user with the message,
“Acquisition Failed, Waiting for Beacon / Modem Signal”
6.3.5 Time
IP Address for the NTP (time) server. Leave blank to
not use an NTP server.
Port number used to communicate with the NTP
server (123 is the default).
"None", "NTP", "NAV
RIOM GPS", "XML"
Time source used by the controller for time
synchronization.
