IMU MOUNTED ON THE VESSEL
If the IMU is mounted elsewhere on the vessel, the single notch of the motion sensor should point
towards the bow. The remote distance between the crane base and the IMU should be entered in
the configuration software under the crane tab between. These fields are named Remote Heave X,
Remote Heave Y and Remote Heave Z. The units are in meters.
“Remote heave X” is the fore aft distance in meters between the IMU and the crane base. Where a
positive distance represents that the motion sensor is located aft of the crane base
“Remote heave Y” is the sideways
distance in meters between the IMU and the crane base. Where a
positive distance represents that the motion sensor is located to the starboard side of the crane base
“Remote heave Z” is the vertical distance in meters between the IMU and the crane base.
Where a
positive distance represents that the motion sensor is located below the crane base.
