information. This is important to establish if the roll, pitch or rotation angle is
negative:
If the antenna mounting angles are non-zero, steering commands from the HSD
are compensated accordingly. The mounting angles currently stored in this
equipment specify that the antenna is mounted with the base plate horizontal,
and that the 'nose' of the antenna points towards the nose of the aircraft.
The antenna mounting must be specified relative to the three axes of the
aircraft. ROTATION measures the angle between front of the antenna, and the
front of the aircraft. If the front of the antenna points towards the left wing,
ROTATION is positive. If the front of the antenna points towards the right wing,
ROTATION is negative.
PITCH measures the angle between the 'long' axis of the antenna, and the
horizontal. If the front of the antenna points up, PITCH is positive. If the front
of the antenna points down, PITCH is negative.
ROLL measures the angle between the 'short' axis of the antenna, and the
horizontal. If the right side of the antenna is higher than the left side (looking
towards the front of the antenna), ROLL is positive. This would normally occur
if the antenna were mounted on the left side of the aircraft.
If more than one mounting angle is non-zero, the angles are presumed to be
applied in the following order: ROTATION is first, PITCH is second, and ROLL
is third.
