Radar Orient

Set the antenna orientation of a radar (Deprecated Command)

Syntax

Radar <RdrObjectPath> Orient {Orientation} <Parameters>

ATTENTION: THIS COMMAND IS DEPRECATED and has been replaced by:

Radar

Description

Note: This command was deprecated in STK 10.1, it should no longer be used. This command has been replaced by the Radar command.

The Radar Connect commands were enhanced in STK 10.1 to make use of attributes and to simplify the format required to use these commands. For more information on using the new format see Transitioning to the New Radar Format.

The Radar Orient command allows you to set the orientation method to be used for radars. The orientation method is the orientation of the antenna coordinate frame relative to the coordinate frame of the parent object. The default orientation for an antenna is to be aligned with the local coordinate frame of the parent object.

Available options for {Orientation} and associated <Parameters> are:

{Orientation} <Parameters>
AzEl <Azimuth> <Elevation> {BoresightOption}, where {BoresightOption} can be Hold or Rotate
Quaternion <Q1> <Q2> <Q3> <Q4>
Euler <Angle1> <Angle2> <Angle3> <Sequence>, where valid values for <Sequence> are: 121, 123, 131, 132, 212, 213, 231, 232, 312, 313, 321
YPR <Yaw> <Pitch> <Roll> <Sequence>, where valid values for <Sequence> are: RPY, RYP, PRY, YRP, YPR

Note: All angle values are entered in degrees.

Example

To set the antenna orientation of the TestRadar to have an azimuth of 23.50, an elevation of 51.0 and rotate about boresight:

Radar */Satellite/GEO/Radar/TestRadar Orient AzEl 23.50 51.0 Rotate
