SAT ARGOS 1.1 Physical The SAT ARGOS PTT is housed in an aluminum enclosure measuring 3” x 2.75” x 1” . There are two electrical connections. The DB9 port connects to the datalogger CS I/O port. The SMA female port connects to the 50 ohm impedance antenna. -

The SAT ARGOS can hold up to four data packets. Each data packet is transmitted as a single message. High resolution data points are four bytes, but high resolution data are not supported by the P125 SAT ARGOS program instruction. -

SAT ARGOS each, total of 32 data points, the PTT will alternate between each data packet. If you send four data packets, the PTT will send packet one, wait the repeat interval, send packet two, wait the repeat interval, send packet three, wait the repeat interval, send packet four, wait the repeat interval, and start over with packet one. -

SAT ARGOS 2.3.4 Using Result Codes in the Program After P125 has executed, check the result codes. If the result code is greater than or equal to two, execute P125 again. Recheck the result code on the next pass of the program table.

SAT ARGOS provides coverage each pass. Each satellite passes over the poles 14 times a day providing 28 satellite passes per day. Coverage decreases with latitude. At the equator the PTT will “ see” a satellite six or seven times a day. - Page 16 SAT ARGOS This is a blank page.
