4.8.3 RENDEZVOUS OPTIONS
While viewing a rendezvous unit’s data, pressing the Select ◙ key again will bring up the Rendezvous Options
screen. From this screen an active rendezvous can be either be updated or cancelled.
4.8.3.1 UPDATING A RENDEZVOUS
Selecting Get Updates from the Rendezvous Options menu will force the asset being followed to issue a position
report with updated rendezvous information. This function may take up to two minutes to propagate to all units
involved in the rendezvous.
4.8.3.2 CANCELLING A RENDEZVOUS
Selecting Cancel Rendezvous will cause the current active rendezvous to be cancelled. Once the cancel has
been initiated it may take several minutes to propagate to other units and SkyWeb.
4.9 MANUAL REPORTING ADJUSTMENTS (FW VERSION 5.0+ ONLY)
Users are able to manually adjust the position reporting interval directly from the CDP. This manually entered
value can be set temporarily value (i.e. it will revert to the previous values on the next power cycle) or have the
change persist across power cycles. This is set in the CDP Config section. The default is for the manual position
interval to NOT persist.
Note: Manually entered position intervals will not be reflected in SkyWeb. If the SkyWeb user queries the unit, the
values returned will be the same as they were before, the ISAT will not return the new PI values. The pilot may
wish to inform flight followers when they have changed the reporting interval, otherwise the SkyWeb user will not
know the interval has been changed but may notice the reporting time is different than expected.
4.9.1 SETTING POSN INTERVAL
To change the position interval from the CDP select:
Main Menu  Posn Interval (PI)
The CDP will retrieve the current PI values from memory in the ISAT.
It will briefly display a message showing the current PI time and whether it was set by the USER or by the ISAT.
The display will then show the message:
