Installation Parameters page
The
Installation Parameters
pages allow you to define the relationship between the physical
locations of the various sensors and the transducer. All relevant system units and sensors
must be defined with their physical offset values in relation to the defined
Ship Origin in the
vessel’s coordinate system. You will only need to define these installation parameters once.
Prerequisites
The
Installation
dialog box is not available when your ST90 system is set to Replay mode.
How to open
This page is located in the
Installation
dialog box. To open the page, select
Installation
on the
Setup
menu.
Description
The physical location and installation angles (rotation) of each sensor must be defined with
reference to the vessel’s coordinate system. The position of certain sensors must be defined
as an
offset to the Ship Origin in the coordinate system to maximize performance.
The physical dimensions and offset values are all required to allow the ST90 system to
give you as accurate information as possible. The degree of accuracy offered by the ST90
system is directly related to the accuracy of the information you enter on the
Installation
Parameters
pages. The relevant dimensions and offset values can normally be taken from
the vessel drawings.
The
Installation Parameters
page contains a number of "sub-pages".
