Set target parameters in Target Configuration Lists through a CSV file.

Creating a CSV File for Target Configuration Lists

Create the CSV file to upload to the RTG in Target Configuration Lists.

Each row of the file sets the configuration and synchronization for the targets—three for the Pulse Aware personality and four for Pulse Invariant personality.

1. Create the CSV file as a comma-delineated text file or in a spreadsheet.
2. Configure columns one and two as indicated in the following table.

   Table 32. Target Configuration Lists CSV File Structure, Column 1 and 2

   Column Name	Allowed Values
   Synchronization Mode	String Software Trigger Hardware Trigger Time Offset Relative to First Time Offset Relative to Last Pulse Rising Edge Pulse Falling Edge
   Synchronization Time Offset	Floating point in seconds (s) representing the amount of time from the configuration change trigger (based on synchronization) until the configuration occurs.

3. Configure columns three through seven as indicated in the following table.
   Note Enter 0 for any unused target parameters.

   Table 33. Target Configuration Lists CSV File Structure, Columns 3 through 7

   Column Name	Allowed Values
   Target Time Offset	Floating point in seconds (s) representing the delay for a target relative to the radar pulse.
   Attenuation	Floating point in decibels (dB)
   Doppler	Floating point In Hz when Relative Velocity is set to 0 In m/s when Relative Velocity is set to 1
   Relative Velocity	Boolean 0 (False) 1 (True)
   Target Enable	Boolean 0 (Disabled) 1 (Enabled)

4. Repeat the columns listed in step 3 for every active target. Enter 0 for any unused target parameters.
5. Save the file as .csv on the RTG controller.
