graph chart provides a means for monitoring the output of the 2 Axis Tilt Sensor and
the Home Switch sensor for diagnostic purposes. The Tilt sensor (located inside the Level Cage Assembly) is
the primary input for the antenna’s reference to the horizon (0° Elevation and 90° Cross-Level). While the
Home Switch Sensor (located at the antenna base) is used to calibrate the antenna’s position relative to the
vessels BOW.
