Verify source of navigation sensors
In a multiple Workstation environment verify that Sensor source indicated Initial Setting is the intended one.
Verify SPEED settings
Select both LOG and DUAL LOG, if they are available. Or select one of them.
Note that MANUAL SPEED should be used in only emergency state when no other speed reference is available.
Remember that position sensors are also available as speed reference sources.
Verify RADAR settings
If LOG and DUAL LOG are not available, you can use radar as source for speed and course.
Verify GYRO settings
Select GYRO1 or GYRO2. Note that in typical installation GYRO1 is connected to a traditional gyro compass,
while GYRO2 receives gyro value from either Trackpilot or a DGPS sensor.
Note that MANUAL heading should be used in only emergency state when no other heading reference is available.
Rate gyro is always automatically selected.
