This attribute retrieves the values for Spherical elements used to define the spacecraft's Initial State.
Astrogator_RM <Satellite Object Path> GetValue <Astrogator Object Path>.Spherical.{Attribute}
If you select Spherical as the Coordinate Type, the following attributes can be specified:
| Attribute | Connect Name |
|---|---|
| Right Ascension | Right_Asc |
| Declination | Decl |
| Radius Magnitude | RMag |
| Element type for Flight Path Angle | FlightPathAngleType |
| Horizontal Flight Path Angle | Horiz_FPA |
| Vertical Flight Path Angle | Vertical_FPA |
| Velocity Azimuth | Azimuth |
| Velocity Magnitude | VMag |
Connect Name is used to set the value of an element while Attribute is used to select the element using an element type attribute.
You can use the FlightPathAngleType attribute to set the element type to use for the flight path angle element or you can simply set a value for the desired element type and it will be selected automatically. For example, if Horizontal FPA is selected as the size element type and you send a command that sets the value for Vertical FPA to 60 degrees, the type will be changed to Vertical FPA.
