2.3.1.7 Environmental Settings
The Environmental Settings are displayed at the bottom of the MAP screen. See Figure 27: Wind and Current
Compensation on page 37.
Environmental settings include Wind and Current compensation. See Wind Compensation on page 37 for use of wind
and current settings.
Figure 27: Wind and Current Compensation
2.3.1.8 Wind Compensation
The wind compensation force is calculated with parameters setup during commissioning and with actual sensor values.
The parameter describes the vessels' wind area in transversal and longitudinal direction. The formulas to calculate
compensation forces include wind area, wind speed and wind direction. The wind speed is retrieved from wind sensors.
When multiple wind sensors are available, the average of these sensors is used.
Settings for wind compensation are:
•
check box to enable/disable wind compensation. SeeFigure 27: Wind and Current Compensation on page 37.
•
0
∼
100% wind compensation (parameter adjustable) to reduce the compensation thrust.
Use percentage compensation factor of 100% by default and lower it when too much compensation force is used. This
may occur when the vessel is behind an object while the wind sensors are not.
•
When taking station in control Wind Compensation is off by default.
•
Wind Compensation can be switched on by using the check box or button on operator panel.
•
Wind Compensation setting is for all modes.
Note Wind compensation settings remain the same when changing between operator modes. For example
when wind correction is enabled in auto position mode, it remains enabled after changing to joystick manual
mode.
Note The independent joystick system does not synchronize wind settings with the DP system.
2.3.1.9 Current Compensation
Current compensation force is calculated with parameters setup during commissioning and values from position sensor
and actual forces used on the thrusters. The parameters are determined by the part of the vessel that is underneath the
water line and include length, beam and draft. The position sensors give the speed of the vessel.
Information display about current compensation: See Figure 27: Wind and Current Compensation on page 37.
•
Indication of the mode for current compensation:
OFF: The current compensation is off.
ON: The system automatically calculates the values for the current speed and angle from the thruster load and
vessels' speed and wind. These values are most accurate if the vessel is in a steady position. The calculation takes
several minutes to find the optimal value.
•
During Autopilot mode the current compensation is OFF.
•
During Joystick Manual and Joystick Auto mode the current compensation is OFF.
•
During Auto position mode the current compensation is ON.
