Operation
5.8.2.7 Target Scheduler Menu
The Target scheduler... menu allows the user to program up to 200 targets with
corresponding dates and times at which tracking begins for each target. This
allows fully automatic tracking of a number of targets, each with its own
preconfigured mode of tracking.
When the target scheduler is running and a target is being tracked, the display will
show the target name under the Current pos, Moving to target or Awaiting next
scheduled target time (no tracking in progress) will be displayed at the Tracking
mode: prompt, and Next target will show the name, date, and time of the next
target to be tracked.
The Target scheduler... menu contains the Start target scheduler and Edit
schedule... menu.
5.8.2.7.1 Start Target Scheduler
When this function is selected, if there are entries in the schedule, a prompt
appears asking the user if tracking is to begin at the first target in the schedule --
the target's name and parameters are displayed in the prompt. The following
sections provide procedures for viewing and editing this track schedule.
5.8.2.7.2 Edit Schedule Menu
Edit Schedule Menu allows viewing and editing of the schedule. Items under this
menu include the following when a schedule exists. Before a schedule is created,
only Add a new entry… is visible.
• View/edit existing entries...
• Add a new entry...
• Delete one entry...
• Delete ALL entries
The user must be at Operator or Supervisor level to make changes to the schedule;
however, the schedule may be viewed at Monitor level. Also note that any
changes made in this menu do not take effect until the user presses [PRIOR] to
leave the menu and saves the changes.
NOTE: All entries displayed or entered are in UTC time, not local
time.
