Position Monitoring display (- not for NP 5100 - )
General information on Position Monitoring
This function compares position information from different source. It compares either
the position information of 2 different sensors, or the information from one source
with Dead Reckoning position data.
If the difference between the monitored sources exceeds the Off Position Limit, an
alert is generated.
Please note (only for Course Control):
It is advisable to check the ”Set”, ”Drift” and ”Off
Position Limit” settings to prevent needless alarms,
which are caused by changing environmental
conditions (drift).
The settings should be checked and adapted more
often, either after changed environmental conditions
(drift) or after course changes.
