Tip:

It may be helpful to temporarily disconnect the connector from the PC board to install the

Setting Sun Sensor Parameters


The Sun Sensor is provided with a four-quadrant photodiode. Each quadrant has its own calibration
factor. To access the relevant page to set the Sun Sensor parameters, the optional Sun Sensor
needs to be selected in the “Post Delivery Check” in the Win2AP software. Selecting it will make
page 7 of the “Suntracker Setup Procedure” become accessible. Enter the Sun Sensor serial
number and the four calibration parameters in the designated boxes, see figure 4.30. Pressing the
“Save Sun Sensor Parameters” button will save the parameters into the 2AP.
