Control the display of azimuth-elevation mask graphics for a facility, place or target in the 2D Graphics window
Graphics <ObjectPath> AzElMask Type {Altitude | Range} [{AzElMaskOptions}]
The Graphics AzElMask command allows you to control the display of azimuth-elevation mask data in the 2D Graphics window for facilities, places and targets.
If Type is Altitude then the terrain mask is displayed using the specified number of steps from the minimum to the maximum altitude from the object.
If Type is Range then the terrain mask is displayed at the specified number of steps from the minimum to the maximum range from the object.
{AzElMaskOptions} can be:
| {AzElMaskOptions} | Description |
|---|---|
| Show {On | Off} | If On is specified the azimuth-elevation mask graphics display in the 2D Graphics window. |
| NumSteps <Value> | The 2D Graphics window displays the difference between the altitude range divided by the number of steps specified. For example, if you enter 3 steps with minimum and maximum altitudes of 500 to 1500 NM, the terrain mask displays at an altitude of 500, 1000, and 1500 NM. <Value> must be between 1 and 50. |
| MinRange <Value> | Indicate the minimum range from the
object at which the terrain mask is displayed. The <Value>
must be greater than or equal to 0.0. If Type is Altitude then the
<Value> must be greater than or equal to the object's height.
Note: MinRange <Value> must be a value less than MaxRange <Value>. |
| MaxRange <Value> | Indicate the maximum range from the
object at which the terrain mask is displayed. The <Value>
must be greater than 0.0 or equal to 0.0.
Note: MaxRange <Value> must be a value greater than than MinRange <Value>. |
| Color {{Color} | Default} | Specify the color for the mask graphics. If Default is entered then the object's color will be used. For valid {Color} options see Common Options. |
To enable the azel mask at altitude in 3 steps between 10000 and 100000 meters (assuming connect units are set to meters):
Graphics */Facility/Facility1 AzElMask Type Altitude Show On NumSteps 3 MinRange 10000 MaxRange 100000
To enable the azel mask at range of 5000 meters (assuming connect units are set to meters):
Graphics */Facility/Facility1 AzElMask Type Range Show On NumSteps 1 MinRange 0 MaxRange 5000 Color yellow
To change the max range and color of the mask created in the previous command:
Graphics */Facility/Facility1 AzElMask Type Range MaxRange 6500 Color red
If activated, Connect returns an acknowledgement message.
