Settings Depending on the Sensor Type
Dual-axis Logs, e.g. ATLAS DOLOG 23
The longitudinal speed measured is displayed behind SPD ,
and the transverse speed measured is displayed behind
SPD . The triangles point in the direction of movement. If the
speeds are measured both through the water and over ground,
these data are also displayed.
If WT data (speed through the water) and BT data (speed over
ground) are both available at the same time, the data whose
field is marked in colour are used. Switching over is done by
clicking on the WT or BT field; if the TRACKPILOT is in the
activated state, this is possible only on the TRACKPILOT
master.
Single-Axis Logs, e.g. EM Log DEBEG 4675
The longitudinal speed measured by the preselected log is
displayed behind SPEED.
The SET and DRIFT values displayed as a suggestion have
been selected such that, together with the longitudinal speed
measured by the preselected log, the same speed vector is
obtained as the one used previously.
If a drift value (not equal to zero) is entered, the log, as
soon as it is selected, is interpreted as being in Bottom
Track mode. If the previously selected sensor measured
the speed through the water (two-axis log in WT mode),
the values must be corrected to take account of the effect
of the existing current.
Manual input takes place after clicking on the DRIFT or SET
field by means of the virtual keyboard.
Sensors which Determine the Speed from Position Data, e.g. GPS, Reference Target Tracking
The status transferred from the sensor is displayed.
The measured course over ground is displayed behind COG,
and the measured speed over ground is displayed behind
SOG.
Manual Input of Speed (MAN)
Behind SPEED, the longitudinal speed currently known to the
system (from the speed sensor selected previously) is entered;
if necessary, change the value by means of the virtual
keyboard after clicking on the SPEED field.
For the set and drift, the same applies as for the single-axis log
- see above.
