GPS NAVIGATOR
example, the boat is drifting on a bearing 234~ with the speed 0,8
knots.
Press SET to set the damping of SET/DRIFT and CTS (please see
below).
Note! The dampening setting will affect all instruments and is not
local, as with boat speed and compass.
The damping will correspond to
the following;
D0 = 5s d1 = 10s d2 = 20s
D3 = 40s d4 = 1 min 20s d5 = 2 min 40s
D6 = 5min d7 = 10min d8 = 20min
D9 = 40min
6.3.4 WCV and CTS
WCV (Waypoint Closing Velocity) is the speed made good towards
the waypoint. CTS (Course To Steer) is the course (selectable
TRUE or MAGNETIC) that the boat must keep to be able to reach
that waypoint in a straight line. CTS includes compensation for the
boats drift.
See DRIFT chapter 6.3.4.
Note! CTS does not include the calculation for changes in tidal
direction.
