[Stabilization Mode]: Select the water stabilization mode: Select [Bottom] for ground
stabilization, or select [Water] for sea stabilization.
[Sensor Type]: Select [GPS] in case of a GPS navigator, or [LOG] for speed log.
[Data Source]: Check [Sensors] to use a sensor in the [Sensors] list, or click [Manual]
to enter speed manually. Use [Manual] when no speed source is available.
[Manual]: Input speed manually. Check [Water] in [Stabilization Mode] and deactivate

[Set Drift]: Check the [Set Drift] checkbox to manually set speed and course of drift.
Note that you can select manual drift only if you check [Water] in [Stabilization Mode].
Angle = Difference between heading and COG
Spd = Speed component of the drift vector
Cse = Course component of the drift vector
Vector defined by (SOG and COG) is equal to vector sum of vectors defined by (SPD
and HDG) and (set and drift).
