8.7.3 - Velocity Movements
Each motor is identified by a number. The azimuth is motor 0 and the elevation is
motor 2. The format for a velocity movement command is "v [motor#] [velocity]. The
velocity is in steps/second with -165 and +165 being the maximum motor speed
(approximately 2.5 deg/sec). Any number entered above +165 and below -165 will be
defaulted to the maximum speed. Negative numbers move the motors in one direction
and positive numbers move the motor in the opposite direction.
Important Note: Typing "s" and pressing enter at any time stops all motors.

Caution: The system will move in azimuth regardless of what the elevation is. Make
sure the system is at a safe elevation before attempting to move the azimuth motor.
Stay clear of the entire system during movement commands.
Caution: The elevation will raise and lower its full range regardless of the azimuth
position. This means it is possible to lower the antenna on either side of the LNB
landing ramp possibly causing damage to the antenna mount or surrounding
equipment.
Caution: Once the motor has been given a velocity command, it will continue to rotate
until it hits a hard stop or the stop "s" command is given.
To start the azimuth rotating counterclockwise, use "v 0 200". The system will continue
rotating until the "s" (stop) command is given.
