error, axis timeout error, current overload fault, resolver fault, and VFD fault. If the cleared error is persistent, the next MCU status message will reset the fault.

The Save Current Position as Peaked button allows the operator to save the current position in the satellite table as the peaked position of the base satellite. All three axes – az, el, and pol – are saved and will be used when the operator selects a satellite and moves to that satellite. The select/move to satellite button on this screen will move to the satellite selected in the pull down window. Only satellites that have saved peaked positions will be listed in the pull down window. The saved peak position will also be used for the position to move to when the operator selects a new base satellite from the satellite table screen.

The Download Position Log to Local Drive button will allow the operator to copy the position log from the ACS3000 server down to a local drive on the PC. The file will be saved as C:\ACS3000\ antennaID\ position.log.

The Jog with Arrow Keys panel allows the operator to enable and disable the arrow keys to control az and el jogging. The arrow keys are defaulted to disabled and will return to disabled when the jog screen is not displayed. Only while the jog screen is displayed can the arrow keys be enabled for jogging.

The antenna position, beacon level, and UTC time display are provided to show the operator the current antenna status. The antenna position (azimuth, elevation, and polarization) are updated every 200 milliseconds. The beacon level is updated every 400 milliseconds. The time display is updated every second.

Tracking Control

The Track Control screen (see Figure 26) allows the operator to select a tracking mode and to enter tracking parameters. One tracking parameter that is necessary is not chosen from this screen. During initialization, a base satellite was chosen. That base satellite ID and name is displayed near the top under the UTC time.
