SET TOPOLOGY

    SET TOPOLOGY topology

    topology   Character(len=24) ! Topology for the overlapping azimuth range

    Choices for topology are:
    LOW HIGH

    Select a "topology" for sources in the overlapping azimuth range
    60 to 100 degrees = 420 to 460 degrees.

    The 30m antenna has azimuth limits of 60 and 460 degrees.  Azimuth 360
    degrees is due North. Therefore there is an overlap range approximately
    toward East-Northeast, which the antenna can reach at a low azimuth 60
    to 100 (from the South) or at a high azimuth 420 to 460 (from the North).

    SET TOPOLOGY LOW  selects to use the azimuth range  60 to 420 degrees
    SET TOPOLOGY HIGH selects to use the azimuth range 100 to 460 degrees

    Note: this is shown in a figure in paKo's manual,
    Section "NCS Explained: Azimuth Topology".
