6.6.1.2. EL

Displays real-time current drawn and speed settings for the elevation motor, as well as

real-time elevation angle and limits, offset, window size, and Elevation adjustment gap.

Fig. 15: “EL” (Elevation) Display

1 – Real-Time Elevation Angle

E (Elevation) The number value after the “E” represents the real time elevation angle.

D The letter “D” will appear to indicate Down Limit has been reached on the elevation axis

U The letter “U” will appear to indicate UP Limit has been reached on the elevation axis

S The letter S will appear to indicate the Elevation angle has reached the stow position

(Antenna Stowed).

2 – Current and Speed Settings

I/S Real-Time current of the elevation motor is to the left of the dash, and speed constant of

the elevation movement is to the right of the dash (i.e. 0-6 represents current of 0 at a set

speed of 6).

U The letter “U” will appear if there is an up movement on the elevation axis.

D The letter “D” will appear if there is a down movement on the elevation axis.

3 - Search Window Elevation Limit

This value represents the amount of degrees the antenna will point above and below the calculated

target elevation coordinate when searching for satellite. (S: 5 – implies elevation search window is

5º)

4 – Advanced Search Elevation Gap

Parameter used to determine the small incremental adjustments required for a more accurate

satellite search. It represents the value used while searching on an incline surface on elevation

angle. Decreasing this value will add accuracy to the Search Window, but will increase the search

time. (AD: 3 – implies that the elevation angle will adjust if 3º gap from the calculated angle)

5 - Elevation Offset

The number of degrees at which the iNetVu™ Mobile Software will offset the reading from the

Inclinometer in order to produce an accurate (+/- 2°) Elevation Angle (e.g. O: 31 implies elevation

offset of 31). These values initially default, and are set after target calibration is performed.
