AddAttitude DCM

Add attitude data based on a direction cosine matrix

Syntax

AddAttitude <ObjectPath> DCM {StartTime} <Value1> <Value2> <Value3> <Value4> <Value5> <Value6> <Value7> <Value8> <Value9>

Description

Use the AddAttitude command with the DCM {AttitudeOption} allows you to enter nine (9) numbers representing a 3X3 direction cosine matrix (DCM). DCM values are accepted in rows. Values 1-3 represent the first row in the matrix, values 4-6 represent the second row in the matrix, and values 7-9 represent the third row.

For valid {StartTime} values see Time Options.

The AddAttitude DCM command is similar to using an external attitude profile, except that the points are entered one at a time using this command.

Multiple inputs of attitude data must be entered with increasing times. If you attempt to enter attitude data that is dated prior to existing attitude data, the new entry is ignored. To clear old data, use the SetAttitude ClearData Connect command.
