Figure 6-29 Meaning of parameter P37
Explanation:
Parameter P37 is the difference between the two values: P37=B-A
● The value is positive if the bay scanner is mounted in the direction of the waterside, as
shown in this figure.
● The value is negative if the bay scanner is mounted in the direction of the landside.
Mount the bay scanner in such a way that the container stack is acquired with as little
disturbance as possible from the swaying spreader.
It is advisable to mount the bay scanner in such a way as to obtain a value of at least one
spreader width for parameter P37.
6.14.2 Conversion of the bay scanner values
Note
Mount the bay scanner in such a way that the container stack is acquired with as little
disturbance as possible from the swaying spreader.
Because this disturbance cannot be ruled out completely, the resulting incorrect
measurements must be acquired and compensated for in the higher-level control system.
