Inclinometer Quick Reference

Parameters

Name Type Unit Description
integrationPeriodOne integer mSec Requested integration time for inclinometer pair X1,Y1
integrationPeriodTwo integer mSec Requested integration time for inclinometer pair X2,Y2
cyclesPerResync integer cycles The number of integration periods between re-sync commands
temperatureSampleInterval double Seconds The number of seconds between temperature samples

Samplers

There are five samplers in the inclinometer, four record data one stream from each device, and the fifth records the round trip time to echo a short message through a loop-back port on the terminal server.

Samplers x1data,y1data,x2data and y2data all contain the fields:

Name Type Unit Description
DMJD double Days The decimal modified Julian day of the sample.
sample_time double Days The sample time calculated by the manager
angle float arc-seconds The angle readout from the associated inclinometer device
serial int None The number of integrations counted since the last re-sync command

Samplers x1temperature,y1temperature,x2temperature and y2temperature all have the sample fields:

Name Type Unit Description
DMJD double Days The decimal modified Julian day of the sample.
x1temperature** float Degrees C The measured temperature
[**] This field has the same name as the associated sampler.

The echoData sampler has the following fields:

Name Type Unit Description
DMJD double Days The decimal modified Julian day of the sample.
echoData float Seconds The number of seconds required to echo a short message through the terminal loop-back port
