The relative positions of the vessel and target can be expressed either as range and
bearing values, or as bow and starboard positions. The position of the target is reported
relative to the RangeGuard Monopole system reference point (or tracking reference point).
See the 94-0523-4-A RangeGuard Monopole Installer’s Guide, for more information about
this.
When tracking, select the required mode by clicking the appropriate tab above the Data
Quality area:
Range & Bearing
Range and Bearing mode displays the distance and the bearing of the target from the
tracking reference point. The radial markers around the outside of the BEV are zeroed in
line with the vessel bow and a magenta tag marks the bearing which is the angle of the
target clockwise from the bow.
Bow and Starboard Axes
In this mode, the position of the target is expressed in metres from the tracking
reference point along the Bow and Starboard axes. The Bow and Starboard
coordinate axes are always parallel with the vessel’s own axes.
