Ship Dimension and Antenna Position
In order to calculate the correct location of own ship relative to other ships, the exact position of the GNSS
antennas and the dimension of the ship need to be specified.
The setting of the Ship Dimensions and the Antenna positions are combined as follows:
Figure 10-1 Ship Dimension and GNSS antenna position
Both the position of the internal and the external GNSS antenna need to be set. To configure “GNSS Antenna
position”, select directly on the Touch screen:
TR-8000 -> means position of the antenna
connected directly to the transponder.
External -> means the position of the GNSS
antenna which is connected to an external
GNSS which feeds IEC 61162-1 messages to
the transponder.
Click on “A”-“D” for “TR-8000” and
“External” and input correct values. The
length and width of the ship will
automatically be derived from these values.
A and B may be maximum 511 metres each,
while C and D may be maximum 63 metres
each.
A: Distance from bow to GNSS antenna position in meters.
B: Distance from stern to GNSS antenna position in meters.
C: Distance from port to GNSS antenna position in meters.
D: Distance from starboard to GNSS antenna position in meters.
