Setup Procedures
After the VisionMaster software has loaded, some setup procedures may
be necessary. To verify proper setup, make the following checks:
On the sensor data display at the top left of the screen, the
indicators for HDG (Heading), COG (Course Over Ground), SOG
(Speed Over Ground), and STW (Speed Through Water) should all
be green. Red data indicates a loss of valid data from the selected
source. The sensor data display indicates the current stabilisation
mode: water or ground based, with the HDG/STW field block
highlighted in water stabilisation and the COG/SOG field block
highlighted in ground stabilisation. The current stabilisation mode
can be toggled in a field below the motion mode and presentation
mode buttons, refer to Sensor Data Display for more information.
The heading sensor may require alignment when the system has
started. If alignment is required the HDG values in the Sensor Data
Display show flashing red dashes and Heading folder of the
Sensors menu automatically opens with the Sensor also showing
red dashes and the Alignment state as `Unaligned', see below. To
align the heading refer to Heading Source Values.
The currently active sensor sources for navigation data are
indicated to the right of the displayed sensor data. Verify that the
desired sensor devices are selected. For information on sensor
source selection, see Sensors Menu Chapter 4 Sensor
Management. On the video circle, the colour of the Ownship
symbol or outline is red if the software determines that the data
sources for Position and Heading are not providing valid data (see
Chapter 5, Presentation Motion, Vector and Trail Modes).
If any alert conditions are active the Alert Status Indicator will flash
red or amber and the buzzer will sound. To acknowledge alerts left
click on the alert status indicator, or right click to open the Alert
Display and view information on the alerts. See Chapter 7, Alerts
for more information on using the Alert Display window.
