What are the methods of manual orientation
Survey
Modified Survey
Map
What is survey
The survey method of orientation and alignment is the most accurate method of manual orientation. This involves the SSS team providing complete UTM, altitude, and set orienting Azimuth for every Launching Station and the Radar Set (within 10m of the known location).
What is modified survey
Modified is performed when the SSS team can only complete the UTM, altitude, and orienting azimuth for some of the locations. As a minimum, PADS must provide the Radar information of UTM, altitude and orienting azimuth (10-40 meters of the known location).
What is map
Manual survey is performed when the Radar location will be determined by using the map-spot technique. (40-120 meters of the known location; if more than 120 meters, it must be re-surveyed

When do you use manual emplacement
Use manual emplacement when automatic emplacement fails twice during the automatic emplacement method of initialization
How can location data be established
Simplified
Survey
System
How do you initialize
using Survey Point
What must alignment data include
roll/cross-roll can be determined using HANFS or M1 Gunner’s Quadrant and M2 Aiming Circle
What is a DAGR
The DAGR is a hand-held global positioning system (GPS) receiver used by the U.S. Department of Defense.
It is a military grade, dual-frequency receiver, and has the security software necessary to decode the encryptor P(Y) code or GPS signal (Precise Positioning Service, or PPS)(Appendix A, DAGR TM).
Will communicate with available satellites within 15 minutes
NAVSTAR GPS system
Is made up of three segments: Space, Control, and User.
What TM coveres the DAGR
TM 11-5820-1172-13&P
TM 9-1430-2600-10-1
What is an INFS
The Improved North Finding System (INFS)
Provides azimuth accuracy
Provides azimuth, roll / cross roll data within 2.5 minutes
The INFS requires a more accurate Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM)used for seed data; therefore, seed data threshold has been changed from 40km to 50 meters (M) using a 13-digit UTM data field. The HANFS will start its alignment function at the end of the Horizon mapping sequence, after a RS/FP reorientation or transition from local to remote.
What TM Covers the INFS (LS)
TM 9-1430-2601-10-1

What are the manual emplacement forms for
These forms are used to help the TCO and TCA manually emplace the system if the system fails to auto emplace.
RS M2 Set-up
Set M2¹ 5 – 7 yards from Radar
Set non-recording knob to 4800 mils
Level M2¹ using Non-recording knob
Sight on Radar mirror (inside curbside front door) – line up cross hairs with your image in mirror
Record elevation of M2¹ to Radar
how many mils is the stow position
0000 mils
degrees to mils
1=17.78
M2² (North Reference)Set-up
Set recording knobs to azimuth that SSS provided
Using non-recording knobs, line up cross hairs with bottom of range pole
NREF Range Pole Set-up

Who validates ISLB PTL/STL change to RS location
RSOP OIC
What purpose is ISLB data
Purpose is to give the RS a bottom reference point
from which to initiate mapping or provide OSLB.
ISLB data
ISLB is shot from the RS HUB stake a minimum
of 1 point and up to 10 points centered over the PTL
Range of up to 10 Kilometers away from the RS.
Elevation entries can be up to 200 mils, and as low as -200 mils;
Differences in elevation from point to point cannot exceed 140 mils difference (most positive and most negative readings)
Entries exceeding the bearing will result in an “Entries Not Compatible” alert
Shoot point just above largest terrain feature in Line of Sight
What tab is ISLB
TAB 96
What Tab is Radar Location/Alignment Data
TAB 81
What are the location tollerances?
Survey = Within 10 meters of known location
Modified Survey = 10 to 40 Meters
Map = 40 to 120 meters
Compass = Radar is within 1 Degree
Any changes exceeding 2 mils requires the system to be updated via 0-degree slew or reinitialization
What Tab COvers Launcher Location and Alignment
Tab 85
What Tab Covers Data Collection Control
Tab 90
What does Tab 90 do
Determines the EDR file name when data is offloaded
Allows system to switch between
record modes 0-3
EDRs are capable of collecting 4 hours of data before overwriting
What TAB is Horizon Plat Control
Tab 94
What does TAB 94 Horizon Plot Control Do?
HORP displays the OSLB across the horizon
Sets center angle to be used to view Horizon Plot display
Source of OSLB Data
