8.2.2.3. Elevation Parameters
The Elevation menu allows for the configuration of the elevation axis. Options include
the elevation offset, as well as the axis limit functionality, slow speed setting and current
limits for slow speeds. The re-organization of the search parameters prompted some
fields to be moved under the axis tabs.
Fig. 82: Maintenance - Elevation Parameters
The inclinometer used to read the elevation angle will compensate for an incline up to +/-
15º. For example if a user is on a 10º slope and the system is searching along the
azimuth, if the elevation reading changes due to a horizontal incline, the elevation will
adjust to maintain the correct elevation angle while searching along the azimuth Offset.
The Elevation Offset is specific to each type of platform. It is the number of degrees at
which the iNetVu
®
Mobile Software will offset the reading from the Inclinometer in order
to produce an accurate (+/- 2°) Elevation Angle.
Slow Speed
The iNetVu
®
software basis the default elevation motor slow speed on the platform size
and type. See Appendix 1 for details. The user may change this value, however
changing such value could result in difficulty accessing satellite acquisition.
