Use this command to input information about the current mount gimbal angles. Gimbal angles are the angle from the locked mount frame to the current gimbal location. They are input in the mount body frame. See Variable Lever Arm for details on frame definitions.

It is very important to follow the order of rotations (Z, X, Y) when determining the rotations from the locked mount frame to the current gimbal location.
