Sets the magnetic variation for the vessel's area of operation. The mag-
netic compass heading data is automatically corrected according to
the set variation. The applicable value for the magnetic variation is to
be taken from the sea chart relevant to the area in question.
Check for the sea chart's date of issue and apply annual changes of
the magnetic variation, if necessary. The setting of the magnetic varia-
tion is not available if the compass system type is G or GG.
ON = automatic correction active
OFF = no automatic correction
Turns the automatic north speed error correction on or off. If automatic
north speed error correction is active, the system permanently calcu-
lates the north speed error from the current speed and position and
corrects the gyrocompass heading data accordingly.
Automatic north speed error correction should be active at any time.
If possible, automatic speed and position input should be used.
If manual speed and/or position input is selected, the relevant data
must be continuously updated according to the prevailing conditions.
Manual speed input should be accurate to at least 1 kt., manual lati-
tude input should be accurate to at least 1°.
ON = output to printer active
OFF = no output to printer
paper feed speed: 60 mm/h / 150 mm/h / 600 mm/h
heading scale: ±30° / ±180°
rudder scale: ±9° / ±45° / ±70° / OFF
Sets the parameters for the printout to a C. PLATH voyage data printer
NAVIPRINT. "ON" turns on printing, using the set parameters for paper
speed, heading and rudder scales. "OFF" turns off printing.
The voyage data printer may be connected to different C. PLATH equip-
ment (autopilots, compass systems, compass monitor, digital repeater).
The printing parameters can only be set from the device the printer is
directly connected to.
After any interruption of power, the compass system's internal clock
must be reset in the user setup, in order for time and date to appear
correctly on the printout.
