MCSDriver#

class ansys.stk.core.stkobjects.astrogator.MCSDriver#

Bases: IPropagator

Basic properties of an Astrogator satellite.

Overview#

Methods

`run_mcs`	Run the current MCS.
`begin_run`	Begins an individual segment mode run.
`end_run`	End an individual segment mode run.
`clear_draw_while_calculating_graphics`	Clear the draw while calculating graphics.
`reset_all_profiles`	Reset all active profiles in all target sequences.
`apply_all_profile_changes`	Apply all active profile changes in all target sequences.
`append_run`	Append the existing ephemeris with another individual segment mode run.
`append_run_from_time`	Append the existing ephemeris with another individual segment mode run, starting at a specified time. Ephemeris is cleared from time based on clear direction.
`append_run_from_state`	Append the existing ephemeris with another individual segment mode run, starting at a specified state. Ephemeris is cleared from time based on clear direction.
`run_mcs2`	Run the current MCS and returns an error code.

Properties

`main_sequence`	Get the Mission Control Sequence.
`options`	Get the Mission Control Sequence options.
`auto_sequence`	Get the Automatic Sequences.
`calculation_graphs`	Get the calculation graphs.

Examples#

Set satellite propagator to Astrogator and clear segments

# Satellite satellite: Satellite object
satellite.set_propagator_type(PropagatorType.ASTROGATOR)
driver = satellite.propagator
# Clear all segments from the MCS
driver.main_sequence.remove_all()

Run the Astrogator® mission control sequence (MCS)

# MCSDriver driver: MCS driver interface
driver.run_mcs()
