Arguments¶
DiveInterval¶
DiveInterval = 3 hour
Elapsed time after most recent surfacing when vehicle will begin to
ascend to the surface again. The timing is actually based on the
variable Universal:time_fix
instead of the variable
Universal:platform_communications
because the latter is not toggled
until the message queue is clear. As a result, there are situations
where the vehicle might dive for the first half of a yo, then return to
the surface to continue communications, rendering the communications
timeout useless. When adjusting this parameter, do not use "set", use
assign
in a mission, or set NeedComms:DiveInterval
from the command
line.
WaitForPitchUp¶
WaitForPitchUp = 10 minute
Extra time to wait for the vehicle to pitch up (avoid truncating a yo).
SurfacePitch¶
SurfacePitch = 20 degree
Pitch to maintain while ascending
SurfaceDepthRate¶
SurfaceDepthRate = NaN meter_per_second
Depth rate to maintain while ascending. Set to NaN if using pitch
SurfaceSpeed¶
SurfaceSpeed = 1 meter_per_second
Standard speed during surfacing. Don't reduce this too much below 1 m/s -- the elevators can stall. (At 0.5 m/s, we have observed evidence of stall in the past.)
GPSTimeout¶
GPSTimeout = 7 minute
Maximum amount of time to spend trying to get each GPS fix.
CommsTimeout¶
CommsTimeout = 30 minute
Maximum amount of time to spend on the surface trying to communicate before giving up, getting another GPS fix, and diving again.
Output¶
