ACU variants with GPS support provide other choices beside NONE for this parameter. 4) ACU
variants with inclinometer support provide other choices beside NONE for this parameter. 5) for
single step move, use following commands:
command
description
ll
Azimuth large step left
l
Azimuth small step left
r
Azimuth small step right
rr
Azimuth large step right
dd
Elevation large step down
d
small step down
u
small step up
uu
large step up
c
Polarisation clockwise step
cc
Polarisation counter clockwise step
6) Use the 'time' parameter to read the actual time used by the ACU. Use the 'stim' parameter to
set the time. 7) This parameter reports the description (name and pointing angles) for a given
target number. 'tdsc=12' e.g. is interpreted by the ACU as a request to report the target
description for target no. 12. The reply to this command is something like 'tdsc=ASTRA 19.2
(167.335/43.412/-15.455)' 8) ACU variants without tracking support only accept NONE for this
parameter.
Bit definitions in 'ibit' (input bits and flags):
The 'ibit' value is returned as a 32 bit hexadecimal number. The bit number 0 means the least
significant bit, bit number 31 the most significant bit in this number.
