    1.2. System Composition The standard configuration of DanEI-300 Electronic Inclinometer comprises of a Sensor Unit and a Display Unit. Figure 1 shows the standard configuration of the DanEI-300. 24V DC Power Supply HRM, ALC, ALF, HBT...

  • Page 6: Display Unit

    DanEI-300 Electronic Inclinometer Daniamant Electronics The heel angle and pitch angle data is calculated by an advanced sensor fusion and motion processing algorithm using the raw data from both the accelerometer and gyroscope. This enables reliable estimation of the ship’s attitude in the presence of various linear and rotational movements, and thus ensures the accuracy of measurement under any possible situation that the ship may encounter.
