This functionality is for use if you require the CyScan AS system to produce a new heading
based on a known reference heading rather than on the orientation of the primary and
secondary targets.
Aligning Multi-Target Heading
Note: This operation is only available when multi-target tracking using DP formats NMEA
Raw or NMEA Primary. The Dashboard should also have A/B/H selected in order that you
can see the effect of your changes.
• Navigate to Advanced > Align Heading
• Key the required heading value into the numerical entry box and click Preview.
• Alternatively, move the red compass needle to the required position, either by clicking
and dragging it or by repeatedly clicking the small +/- buttons.
• Press Apply (on the Apply-Cancel pop-up) to confirm.
WARNING: You must deselect the CyScan AS sensor at the DP console BEFORE
commencing this operation.
When you align the multi-target heading, the A and B axes orientation and position
coordinates are recalculated so that they correspond with the new heading value.
The heading and position coordinate data sent to the DP system will change suddenly
when you confirm the new alignment.
