Yossef,

   If you define the Type34 "receiver azimuth" parameter using an 
equation that references the "turn" variable then it can be 
automatically set. If you leave the Type34 parameter set to zero then 
that means that Type34 thinks that the receiver (window) faces the equator.

kind regards,

  David
