Ship Heading (Key '2') - KNS Ku-BAND TX Installation And Operation Manual

NOTE: In the event of a GPS failure, the user must enter the correct GPS value for the
antenna to calculate the EL and AZ of the target satellite; the same applies if the ship has
traveled a significant distance from the last manually entered location. Since antenna
searches for satellites based on its current position, correct LAT & LONG data is needed
to be entered.
NOTE: Press the '+/-' key to change 'North' or 'South' when setting the latitude, and
press the '+/-' key to change 'East' or 'West' when setting the longitude.

7.1.3 Ship Heading (Key '2')

Press key '2' to access 'SHIP HEADING'. The correct ship heading information must be
entered whenever the ACU is initialized (power reset), as with most types of Gyro
compasses. This configuration is not required for NMEA or Synchro 1:1 Gyro inputs.
Use this configuration when the heading angle displayed in the ACU is different from the
ship's heading angle.
