System Functions
1.
Grey area
— the vessel is able to maintains its position and heading. The difference between the forces from wind,
waves and current can be compensated by active thrust.
2.
Black area
— the vessel is not able to maintain its position. The force from environmental disturbances exceed
maximum thrust value.
Real Mode
Capability Analysis in
Real Mode
is performed for actual thruster configuration and present environmental conditions.
In this mode, the Capability view looks as in Figure 10.61.
Figure 10.61: The Capability View in Real Mode
Thruster and Power Configuration
A list of the DP system components (thrusters, power components, bus tie breakers) is displayed in the bottom of the
Capability Analysis window (see Figure 10.61).

— Status of each component is indicated by colored round indicator.
Green
color means:
– for the thruster: it operates normally and is included in the Auto Thruster group;
– for the power component: it is connected to a bus and operates normally;
– for bus tie breaker: it is closed.
Red
color means:
– for the thruster: it is not included in the Auto Thruster group or failed;
– for the power component: it is disconnected from a bus or failed;
