Overload List

Signatures	Return Value	Description
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(GroundStation groundStationToView)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when groundStationToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in the Spacecraft's first active Sensor's coordinate frame. If the Spacecraft has no active Sensors, the azimuth and elevation are reported in the Spacecraft's body coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Spacecraft spacecraftToView)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when spacecraftToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in the Spacecraft's first active Sensor's coordinate frame. If the Spacecraft has no active Sensors, the azimuth and elevation are reported in the Spacecraft's body coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Star starToView)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when starToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in the Spacecraft's first active Sensor's coordinate frame. If the Spacecraft has no active Sensors, the azimuth and elevation are reported in the Spacecraft's body coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Variable celestialBodyToView)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when celestialBodyToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in the Spacecraft's first active Sensor's coordinate frame. If the Spacecraft has no active Sensors, the azimuth and elevation are reported in the Spacecraft's body coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(GroundStation groundStationToView, Sensor sensorToUse)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when groundStationToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in sensorToUse's coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Spacecraft spacecraftToView, Sensor sensorToUse)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when spacecraftToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in sensorToUse's coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Star starToView, Sensor sensorToUse)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when starToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in sensorToUse's coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Variable celestialBodyToView, Sensor sensorToUse)	String	Returns the entry and exit times when celestialBodyToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view as well as the azimuth and elevation of the argument in sensorToUse's coordinate frame.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(GroundStation groundStationToView, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when groundStationToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Spacecraft spacecraftToView, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when spacecraftToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Star starToView, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when starToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Variable celestialBodyToView, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when celestialBodyToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(GroundStation groundStationToView, Sensor sensorToUse, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when groundStationToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Spacecraft spacecraftToView, Sensor sensorToUse, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when spacecraftToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Star starToView, Sensor sensorToUse, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when starToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
Spacecraft.FOVTimes(Variable celestialBodyToView, Sensor sensorToUse, TimeSpanArray EventTime, Array EventType)	Variable	Returns the entry and exit times when celestialBodyToView enters and leaves the Spacecraft's field of view.
