Installing and Configuring the RangeGuard System
19
Control Panel - Sensors Screen
This contains a parameter for the number of sensors in the
system and a block of settings per sensor for display and
configuration purposes.
Expected sensor count:
Where the number of
sensors in the system is not going to change, enter
this number. Otherwise use zero (default), which
causes the system to automatically search and
identify each sensor connected.
Sensor Parameters
Each sensor is identified by the read-only Sensor ID string.
Set the following parameters for each:
Label
: A user friendly name given to the sensor, to be used on the main RangeGuard Display. For example:
Port FWD
De-spike Enabled
: This should be ticked to guard against crosstalk if the positioning of two or more sensors mean that they might receive signals from each other.
Field of View
: Set to 10 or 110 degrees. This value sets the conical shape displayed on the Bird
’s Eye View of the RangeGuard Display to represent the radar
beam from this sensor. The value must correspond to the sensor type fitted (wide or narrow beam).
Gain
: This is set according to the application and typical operating conditions. Changing this value from the default of 0.01 should only be done on the advice of
Guidance Marine.
DSP Filtering Method
: Leave as the default of
None
. Do not change without advice from Guidance Marine.
Averaging Number
: Increasing this value improves the stability of the measured range but also reduces the sensor responsiveness to variations in range. Changing
this value from the default of 1 should only be done on the advice of Guidance Marine.
Raw Log Location
: The recording of raw data is a feature that is sometimes required for diagnostic purposes but rapidly fills storage space. Normally therefore this
field should be set to the default
Disable Raw Log
. Contact Guidance Marine for further information.
