The accurate calibration of the paddlewheel or sonic speed sensor is
essential. Hydra uses simple procedures for calibrating the speed sensors
that are described in Part 4 - Calibration. On boats fitted with two sensors,
connected by a gravity switch, Hydra will automatically use the calibration
factor for the leeward sensor.
Boat speed is shown on the display with a small bar to the left of the digits
that indicates the increase or decrease of speed. The amount of damping
that is applied can be adjusted. This can be increased to smooth out the
display value in rough conditions or conversely reduced to speed up the
response in light conditions.
2.11.11 Course
Menu Heading: NAVIGATE
Function Text: COURSE
Update Rate: Once per second
Units: Degrees magnetic
Note
Requires heel sensor.
This incorporates leeway (Course Made Good) into heading. Leeway can
only be calculated if you have the heel sensor fitted. Course is the better
function for most navigational purposes and should be used whenever
possible.
2.11.12 Course Over Ground
Menu Heading: WAYPOINT
Function Text: CRSE O/G
Update Rate: Provided by position fixer
Units: Degrees magnetic, true
Note
Requires interfaced position fixer.
Once the position fixer is connected and sending information, it automatically
appears in the menu and becomes available for display. This is your actual
track over ground and is invaluable to the navigator for dealing with tidal
areas.
