1.4.2.6
Rate of Turn
The influence of the sea state to the rate of turn can be damped in this sub-menu.
This damping only acts to analogue RoT-devices which are connected to a distribution
unit. All other RoT data outputs are not damped.
CAUTION
RoT-data are displayed unfiltered; selected damp values only act to
an analogue output (for example: the output RoT in the distribution
unit, type 138-118).
Figure 1-11
Rate of Turn
A positive sign and a green bar stand for a rate of turn to starboard.
A negative sign and a red bar stand for a rate of turn to port side.
Damp 0 = small damping (0 s)
Damp 1 = middle damping (5 s)
Damp 2 = strong damping (10 s)
To select the damping, see chapter 2.9.6.
CAUTION
If there is no Rate of Turn indicator connected in the respective
application, the rate of turn for connected heading sensors is a
tendency indication only.
Exception: DV-Bus application shows a rate of turn for magnetic
compasses (if selected).
For more information about RoT applications, see manual of
respective distribution unit.
