Engineering/lineCaptureHoming.tl¶
Mission ID: lineCaptureHoming
Mission Path: Engineering/lineCaptureHoming.tl
Home to transponder while maintaining altitude or depth. Altitude gets priority if non nan. The mission sequence: (*) Start (1) Midcourse guidance: nav to target WP while querying transponder (2) Terminal guidance: home to target using USBL tracking data (4) Dock: final approach using fixed heading.

TrackingUpdatePeriodDocked¶
TrackingUpdatePeriodDocked = 2 minute
How long to wait between acoustic queries.
TrackingNumFixesLowPassFilter¶
TrackingNumFixesLowPassFilter = 5 count
Median filter bin size. Filters the contact estimated lat/lon position. Prefer odd number, set to 1 to disable filter.
NumberOfPings¶
NumberOfPings = 1 count
Number of pings requested each time.
NumPingsUSBL¶
NumPingsUSBL = 1 count
Number of pings requested while in USBL mode range.
RangeUSBL¶
RangeUSBL = 40 meter
USBL mode range.
TrackingNumFixesLowPassFilterUSBL¶
TrackingNumFixesLowPassFilterUSBL = 5 count
Median filter bin size. Filters the contact estimated lat/lon position. Prefer odd number, set to 1 to disable filter.
DockingAltitude¶
DockingAltitude = NaN meter
Docking altitude. Ignored when NaN and used over depth when a valid altitude is set.
InvalidAltitudeTimeout¶
InvalidAltitudeTimeout = NaN minute
The mission will use the last good depth command if no valid altitude readings are received within this specified time duration.
AltitudeDepthLimit¶
AltitudeDepthLimit = NaN meter
Vehicle will not be commanded deeper than this regardless of altitude command.
MinAltitude¶
MinAltitude = 5 meter
Minimum height above the sea floor for the entire mission.
MaxDepth¶
MaxDepth = 205 meter
Maximum depth for the entire mission.
MinOffshore¶
MinOffshore = 2 kilometer
Minimum offshore distance for the entire mission.
ApproachDepthTimeout¶
ApproachDepthTimeout = 20 minute
Maximum wait time for the vehicle to reach the target depth on initial dive.
ApproachDepthRate¶
ApproachDepthRate = 0.05 meter_per_second
Descent depth rate (positive depth is down). Used only as a smoothing parameter.
Lat1¶
Lat1 = NaN degree
Latitude of rollout waypoint. If nan, waypoint is skipped.
Lon1¶
Lon1 = NaN degree
Longitude of rollout waypoint. If nan, waypoint is skipped.
CaptureRadius¶
CaptureRadius = NaN meter
How close to call the waypiont behavior satisfied. Nan uses default value.
MidcourseDepth¶
MidcourseDepth = Dock:LineCapture.midcourseDepth
Desired vehicle depth when navigating to dock WP (during midcourse phase).
MidcourseSpeed¶
MidcourseSpeed = Dock:LineCapture.midcourseSpeed
Speed during initial dive and waypoint.
TrackingPeriod¶
TrackingPeriod = 60 second
Mission variable (don't change). The mission sets this variable to update the how long to wait between acoustic queries.
Output¶
Mode¶
Mode = -1 count
Mission variable (don't change). The mission sets this variable to reflect the termination status of the LineCapture insert.
NumPings¶
NumPings = 1 count
Mission variable (don't change). The mission sets this variable to update the requested ping number and enter usbl mode.
LowPassFilterWinSize¶
LowPassFilterWinSize = 1 count

Inserts¶
Insert/Science.tl¶
Most missions will run the science sensors. If you don't place this aggregate above NeedComms, science instruments get turned off on the last upcast and while floating on the surface.
