Description

This menu is used to set the co-ordinates for the preliminary

 

and final antenna stow positions.

 

With the antenna not in the Stow position pressing the

 

Stow/Unstow key causes the antenna to be driven to the Final

 

Stow Position via the Preliminary Stow Position.

Note

The Preliminary and/or Final positions may be set to “used” or

 

“not used” in the “Select Stow Use” menu (Menu Key 3). (see

 

next page)

 

Menu key 6 (Next Field) steps the edit box through the four

 

angle fields. The co-ordinates can be changed using the

 

Numeric Keypad.

Notes

If all positions are enabled the antenna is driven, in both axes,

 

to the Preliminary Stow Position. When both axes reach that

 

position the antenna is driven to the Final Stow Position

 

Unstow drives the antenna to the Preliminary Stow Position.

 

The only antenna command possible from the Stow Position

 

is Unstow.
