Initial Position (X,Y,Z) (0,0,0) The initial position of the GCU is 0,0,0 where the GCU is upside down with the cables exiting left (cable connector facing left.
X The X axis can be considered as pivoting the GCU perpendicularly to the cable connection Y The Y axis can be considered as pivoting the GCU parallel to the cable connection Z The Z axis can be considered as rotating the direction the cables exit the GCU
X Axis o 90 X Axis As viewed from above 180o The X axis runs parallel with the cable connectors on the GCU. Turn clockwise on the X axis for degree values (e.g. 90o, 180o, -90o) o The GCU X axis is at 0 when the GCU is upside down.
Rotations on the X Axis 0 90 -90 Rotations pivoting along a line running parallel to the cable connector
Y Axis 90o Y Axis 180o The Y axis runs perpendicular to the cable connectors on the GCU. Turn clockwise on Y Axis for degree values (e.g. 90o, 180o, -90o) The GCU Y axis is at 0o when the GCU is flat, upside down.
Rotations on the Y Axis 0 90 -90 Rotations pivoting along a line running perpendicular to the cable connector
Z Axis 90o The Z axis is defined by the clockwise rotation of the GCU. As viewed 180o from above Turn clockwise for degree values (e.g. o o o o 0 , 90 , 180 , -90 ) The GCU Z axis is at 0o when the cable connections are to the left.
Rotations on the Z Axis 0 90 180 Clockwise rotation of the GCU, indicated by the direction of the cable connection.
