Method Detail

setElevation

void setElevation(int angle)

Raises or lowers the sensor elevation.

Parameters:

angle - getMaximumElevation() to getMinimumElevation() +90 to -90, or if platform is incapable of this movement

getElevation

int getElevation()

Returns the current sensor elevation angle.

Returns:

getMaximumElevation

int getMaximumElevation()

Maximum angle the elevation can be raised. Should be no larger than 90 degrees.

Returns:

getMinimumElevation

int getMinimumElevation()

Minimum angle the elevation can be lowered to. Should be no less than -90 degrees.

Returns:

setMaximumElevation

void setMaximumElevation(int maxAngle)

Sets the maximum angle the elevation can be raised.

Parameters:

maxAngle - Should be no greater than +90 degrees.

setMinimumElevation

void setMinimumElevation(int minAngle)

Sets the minimum angle the elevation can be raised.

Parameters:

minAngle - Should be no less than -90 degrees.

setElevationSpeed

void setElevationSpeed(int speed)

Sets the speed the platform should rotate, in degrees per second. The default speed is XX degrees/second.

Parameters:

speed -

getElevationSpeed

int getElevationSpeed()

Gets the speed the platform rotates, in degrees per second. The default speed is XX degrees/second.

Returns:

scanUp

void scanUp()

scanDown

void scanDown()

stopElevation

void stopElevation()

Stops a scan in motion from scanUp() or scanDown().
