  • Tel to GIC

    Communications between the Telescope LIC and the GIC consist three tags, two REAL floating point values, Azimuth and Altitude positions; and an array of 128 BOOL values for various logic values (see below).

    Telescope to GIC floating point values

    TEL_Alitiude is a user-defined type UDT_SafetyAnalog which consists of the the safety connection status and a single REAL floating point value.
