5. Monitor
This view provides a UI which can monitor all data that has been received from the
BDT.
- Tracking:
turns on or off the dish scan function. If the dish scan function
is disabled, the antenna will stop adjusting the antenna pointing angle in
order to optimize the receive signal level.
- Rate Sensor Bias: is used to calibrate the DC voltage output from the
three rate sensors (azimuth, elevation, and cross-level). These are used
to sense antenna motion that corresponds to the ship’s motion ( roll,
pitch, and yaw) for stabilizing the pedestal. You can find the same
function in Antenna-Advanced View Tab.
- Show Param:
shows the current antenna parameters.
- Check NID: verifies the NID (network ID) of the current tracking transponder.
Press the NID button to obtain the NID only if the antenna is
locked onto the desired satellite .
- Debug (Start):
starts the debug log of the antenna. The debug message
will be displayed once the debug button is pressed.
- Stop Debug: stops debug logging of the antenna.
- Save Log (Start/Stop):
starts or stops the logs of the antenna. This
button will be enabled while viewing the debug log. The log message
will be stopped or be saved into a *.txt file once the log button is pressed.
(V_Date.txt.)
- Save Debug (Start/Stop): starts or stops saving the debug log. This button is
enabled once the Start Debug button is pressed.
- Clear View:
clears the debug message or log data in monitoring window.
