Revision 1.0.2
The Inclinometer is installed with an offset in order to produce an accurate Elevation
Angle reading. Each type of Mobile Platform has its own default offset value.
This value is normally changed when performing the Target Calibration process to
compensate for un-level surroundings, and should be left at this updated value.

Azimuth Parameters
Fig. 55: Advanced Maintenance – Azimuth Parameters
The Azimuth Angle is based on 2 values:
• AZ Pot Factor
• AZ Pot Zero
AZ Pot Factor is an A/D value from the potentiometer which allows the iNetVu™ Mobile
Software to convert the A/D value of the Potentiometer into an equivalent angle. The AZ
Pot Factor should vary approximately +
15% from the Default values below.
AZ Pot Zero is an A/D value from the potentiometer which physically determines where
the iNetVu™ Mobile Software places Azimuth Angle 0°. The AZ Pot Zero may vary
approximately +
15% from the Default values below.
The AZ Pot Factor and AZ Pot Zero are calculated during the Azimuth Calibration
process.
