Sensor Installation page
For the ST90 system to use and offer correct navigational information, one or more external
sensors must be connected. Typical sensors are those providing navigational information
(heading, speed or geographical position). Use the
Sensor Installation
page to define which
external sensors your ST90 system will import information from. You must also specify
which datagram formats to use. For each relevant sensor you must insert the offset values
that define the its physical location relative to the vessel’s coordinate system.
Prerequisites
The
Installation
dialog box is not available when your ST90 system is set to Replay mode.
