Sensors
Dish Elevation displays the current position of the Antenna in respect to
Stowed (travel position). Stow is approximately 0 degrees. Elevation
Origin under Mount Settings will affect this value.
Dish Azimuth displays the current position of the Antenna in the
horizontal travel plane (0 to 375 degrees of rotational travel) relative to the
stowed position.
Dish RX Skew displays the current position of the Antenna Skew.
Depending on Mount Type the Antenna or Feed Horn Assembly will rotate
(roll) in a CW/CCW direction up to +/- 103 degrees. Skew stow position is
different for different mount types.
GPS Longitude and Latitude is read from the GPS module located on
the Antenna Mount or when Manual Location is "Enabled" in Search
Settings.
Motor Current displays the power consumption of the motors on the
Antenna Mount when the Antenna is moving.
Satellite
Target Elevation displays the calculated amount of Elevation travel the
antenna mount will have to raise from the Stowed position to locate the
selected satellite.
Target RX Skew displays the calculated Skew Angle for the selected
satellite.
Satellite Longitude displays the true Longitudal location of the Target
Satellite above the Equator.
Sat Elevation displays the true elevation look angle of the Target Satellite
from the Earth horizon (level).
Sat True Azimuth displays the actual compass direction of the Target
Satellite in reference to True North.
Sat Polarization displays the true Skew Angle for the Target Satellite.
