Data Source
The currently selected sensor from which the readout is taken (e.g. GPS,
Gyro etc.).
Stabilisation Options
There are two stabilisation modes for target tracking, ground and water
referenced. The HDG and STW field block indicates water stabilisation and
the COG/SOG field block indicates ground stabilisation.
To toggle between the two stabilisation modes either click anywhere within
the two field blocks, or right click on the display and select from the drop
down list (the current stabilisation mode is shown ticked). The selected
block is highlighted and sensor data is extracted based on the stabilisation
mode selected.
Multi-node System
In a multi-node system all nodes on the system provide the same indication
of selected sensor source for each data type, regardless of the node from
which the operator makes selections.
