Hi Ricky, If I remember rightly, all rotation parameters come into the code as floats with a range of 0 to 1. In the code they are converted to radians, 0 to 2*KPi for azimuth, -KPi/2 to +KPi/2 for elevation since we generally regard horizontal as 0 degrees (or radians) with downward angles negative and upward angles as positive. Hope that helps - must admit that my brain hurts from looking at that old and uncommented :-( code, it's not a style I personally like but we agreed that Matt would stick to Pd's coding style for consistency with other externals when he did the port.
