Navigation Sensors
How to select Navigation sensors
User can select navigation sensors used in navigation and view their current values.
Checkbox status shows whether to use the sensor for integrated navigation or not. If there is no value with sensor it
indicates that sensor is not valid. Note, that content of these sheets is depending on sensors which are in use on the
ship.

Manual speed:
If selected, user can enter value (Kt) for Speed.
Note: This is used only if there are no other Speed or SMG sensors selected.
Log:
If selected, sensor is used as water speed source. (no pulse) is used to indicate that a log device with closed contact
relay interface using 200 pulses/nm does not give any pulses and thus the speed might be wrong. If Log is selected
and "no pulse" condition is detected, then system generates alarm "2005 Log data unreliable".
Note: If you have a dual log, which can measure both water and bottom track, then installation parameters could be
set to receive water track of the dual log as log device.
