timestamp on the chart. The method of transfer may be selected in the bottom of
the dialog. Transfer to latest transfers the measurements as if they were all
made at the time of the newest measurement. Continuous transfer transfers all
measurements to real time. Transfer off can be used to check where the mea-
surement origins are. The position estimate and the record function follow the
same logic, which means that Transfer off shows a position that has no relevance
and Transfer to latest sends an old position to the [Voyage] log (timestamp in the
log does not match the position).
If you are satisfied with the position shown in the latitude and longitude fields, then
click the [Record] button to save the position observation to the Voyage log. If you
wish you can also enter latitude and longitude values manually.
Timeouts: The observations cannot be used long after they were made because
dead reckoning is inaccurate.
Click the [Record] button to put a position event at the LOP-calculated position.
The position is recorded to the [Voyage] log.
How to find position event information
You can find information about a position event in an ECDIS mode other than Chart
maintenance. Put the cursor on the event mark then left click to show the [Event Infor-
mation] window. This window shows event type (position event), time of entry, event
position, name of sensor ([Position] only), comment (automatic for [LOP] and [Posi-
tion]; user-entered comment* for [Manual]), and position line data ([LOP] only). *Com-
ment cannot be changed from this window.
