This attribute sets the values for Cartesian elements used to define the spacecraft's Initial State.
Astrogator <Satellite Object Path> SetValue <Astrogator Object Path>.Cartesian.<Element> <Value> <Unit>
If you select Cartesian as the Coordinate Type, the following six elements need to be specified:
Element | Description |
---|---|
X | The X component of the spacecraft position vector. Enter a value in the selected distance unit (e.g., km). |
Y | The Y component of the spacecraft position vector. Enter a value in the selected distance unit (e.g., km). |
Z | The Z component of the spacecraft position vector. Enter a value in the selected distance unit (e.g., km). |
Vx | The X component of the spacecraft velocity vector. Enter a value in the selected distance unit per selected time unit (e.g., km/sec). |
Vy | The Y component of the spacecraft velocity vector. Enter a value in the selected distance unit per selected time unit (e.g., km/sec). |
Vz | The Z component of the spacecraft velocity vector. Enter a value in the selected distance unit per selected time unit (e.g., km/sec). |
