[REPORTED] TWS antenna slew messing with RWS

[Beamscanner]

TWS azmiuth slewing offsets the RWS scan area when switched back.

Sorry, just to be clear I am reading this right, if I have RWS set to say 140, then switch to TWS, then switch back, you are saying RWS should remember it was on 140, and not use what TWS was on?

Nope, if you go TWS, offset the antena x degress to the left (or right) and then you go RWS again, then whatever azimuth degress you select in RWS is offset x degress to the left (or right). So basically you could end with a 140 degress RWS scan pattern that do not scan the full 140° only the left side.

 

This means a non centered RWS scan pattern.

 

For me this does not happen always but it happens a lot if you mess with auto or bias mode in TWS and then you go RWS.

Can one of you include a track to the specific issue, the referenced track is for a number of issues. So one specific to this issue would be best.

Exactly this.

Please give me a short track with what you are seeing. The linked track is for a number of issues, tracks should be specific to one bug or issue. Thanks.

Hi NineLine,

 

This behavior is easily reproducible, if you go in TWS and go back to RWS the antenna will not be centered anymore and the radar will always be looking of to the right or to the left in the previous TWS Azimuth location.

Even when you go to 140 Azimuth, the radar will not be centered.

Sorry, I can't reproduce this, if someone can supply a short track, I will take a look.

Hi Nineline,

 

sure here is a track based on the instant action BVR 8v8.

 

as you can see;

Step1: go to TWS

Step 2: Slew the TDC left or right

Step 3: go back to RWS

 

There you will see that the RWS is not centered anymore, even when you go 140deg AZ

TWS AZ messes up RWS AZ.trk

Thanks, will check now!

Sorry, this was reported a few days ago, just forgot to update.
