Thruster Drive
(Only applicable for Continuous and Danfoss thrusters)
For On/Off thrusters, it is important to keep thruster activity to a
minimum. TI51 therefore has a feature that adaptively adjusts
the length of each thruster command to bring the vessel back on
heading without over- or undershoot.
When setting Thruster drive to “Adaptive on/off”, this feature
will also apply for continuously type thrusters in all Work
modes (not Follow Up). For operations where the Thruster sens
can be of some degrees, on/off adaptively will reduce activity
also for continuous type thrusters.
Refer also to the Thruster gain setting for optional
performance.
Default: Continuous
Response delay
(Only applicable for Continuous and Danfoss thrusters)
This parameter determines the slope-time of the start/stop signal
to the thruster. Increased value will give softer start/stop and less
wear of the thruster. Big powerful thrusters normally need a
longer start time than small rapid thrusters.
Range: 0-2 seconds
Default: 1 second
