TLE Target El Offset
4
Float
-90.0 - 90.0
A manual offset to be applied to the current target
position, defined in degrees of elevation.
TLE Target Pol Offset
4
Float
-180 - 180
A manual offset to be applied to the current target
position, defined in degrees of polarization.
Current Satellite TLE Line 1
– Line 1 of the TLE data for the target satellite as entered in the Satellite List.
Current Satellite TLE Line 2
– Line 2 of the TLE data for the target satellite as entered in the Satellite List.
TLE Scan Step Enable
– This flag indicates whether the module will run scans and step tracking to refine the target
pointing. If the “TLE Scan Step Enable” is set to “No”, the module will use only TLE data and any user entered offsets to
track the satellite. If the “TLE Scan Step Enable” is set to “Yes”, the module will create its own offsets after performing
scans and step tracking using the configured signal source. When this configuration item has been changed, tracking
should be initiated by the Acquire command instead of the Track command (this ensures that all tracking data is
cleared).
TLE Step Track Period
– This value determines the period in seconds between Step Track cycles if “TLE Scan Step
Enable” is set to “Yes”
TLE Target Az Offset
–This is a manual offset applied to the current track position, defined in degrees of azimuth. This
configuration item can be preset as part of the target profile setup or it can be adjusted during TLE tracking through
the TLE Offset Control Window to manually peak the target signal.
TLE Target El Offset
–This is a manual offset applied to the current track position, defined in degrees of elevation. This
configuration item can be preset as part of the target profile setup or it can be adjusted during TLE tracking through
the TLE Offset Control Window to manually peak the target signal.
TLE Target Pol Offset
– This is a manual offset applied to the current track position, defined in degrees of polarization.
This configuration item can be preset as part of the target profile setup or it can be adjusted during TLE tracking
through the TLE Offset Control Window to manually peak the target signal. This configuration item is still used when
the core configuration item TLE Scan Step Enable is set to Yes.
