Automooring

Automooring is a speed-control application with torque limitation. The Automooring
maintains stable tension in the ropes between the vessel and the harbor pier with the
help of an Automooring control program sequence.
Automooring can be used when Handmooring is completed and required pretension
is achieved in the ropes (parameter 76.05 Automooring min tension). This optional
protection prevents starting Automooring with slack ropes.
A speed control reference (parameter 74.40 Automooring speed ref) defines the
speed reference and the maximum speed that the winch uses when creating
torque/tension in the ropes according to the Automooring setpoint selection
(parameter 76.13 Automooring setpoint selection).
