Sensor Management Chapter 6
Sensors Menu
The Sensors menu allows the operator to
select the sensor source to be used for each
type of data (e.g. heading, water speed,
position etc.). In addition to the selection of a
sensor source, adjustments to the heading
alignment can be made at the Heading
sensor, and an offset position can be
applied to a Position sensor.
In a multi-node system, in order to apply a
consistent common reference system, all
nodes use the same sensor for each type of
sensor data (position, heading, water speed,
ground speed, etc.), regardless of the node
from which the operator makes the
selection. As an example, if the operator
selects position from GPS1 on one node, GPS1 is selected as the source
of position on all nodes.
All ECDIS systems include the same set of primary sensors; these are
listed in `Primary Sensors on ECDIS Systems’.
If for any reason a sensor is not providing usable data an alert will be
raised and the data displayed in yellowish-orange.
If automatic sensor data is unavailable manually entered values may be
used in place, subject to certain restrictions.
If your system includes AIS target capability then AIS input must be
disabled before manual sensor data can be selected (see AIS
Display).
CAUTION: MANUAL SENSOR DATA
Using manual data is not the normal mode of operation. A sensor
device should be selected as soon as valid data is available.
