Set the orbit state of a satellite from an 11-Parameter file.
SetState <SatObjectPath> 11Parameter <Options>
The SetState 11Parameter command sets the orbit state of the satellite using information from an 11-Parameter file. 11-Parameter files can be found on the IntelSat, SES NewSkies, and TelenorSBC websites.
Note: When multiple files are used for one satellite the files must all have the same satellite identifier, and must not have duplicate epoch times.
At least one option must be entered on the command line. Valid <Options> are:
| <Options> | Description |
|---|---|
| File "<Filename>" | Enter the path and name of an
11-Parameter file. This option can be entered more than once on a
command line.
See the {Add | Replace} option below. |
| NoProp | If included on the command line the satellite's state will be set but it will not be propagated. |
| TimePeriod {TimeInterval} | Define the beginning and end of the
satellite's time period.
For valid {TimeInterval} values see Time Options. |
| TimeStep <StepSize> | Enter a value representing the interval between calculated ephemeris output points in seconds. The default value is 60 seconds. |
| {Add | Replace} | This parameter is used in conjunction
with the File parameter. Enter Add to add the File(s) to the
satellite. Enter Replace to clear any files currently in use by the
satellite, and replace with the files listed in the command.
The default value is Add. |
