Command Line Interface

General

The most simple way to control and command an OPM system is employing HyperTerminal (or a similar program like PuTTY, RealTerm, etc.).

At installation time the IP address will be set as needed. This is done by using ezManager, a utility provided by Orbitracs or to be downloaded from http://www.eztcp.com/en/download/ezmanager.php  (to note that address change  can be repeated any time during lifetime if changing is required).

Next, open a HyperTerminal session with WinSock on the address set on port 1470. From here, all commands listed in table below are available, allowing full control over the system.

Incremental re-point commands

Direct position input

Fine pointing commands *

To note that numerous additional commands are available for maintenance, verification, additional functionality  etc. These will be provided during installation. This command set will also enable the end-user to develop it’s own software for controlling the system or integrate control into an already existing teleport M&C system.

Note: fine pointing can be made on an un-limited number of orbit positions. When accessing a same position again later, the corrections will be re-applied automatically
