TEERING PARAMETERS
VELOCITY TO COME BACK TO THE TRACK
The parameter controls how fast the ship comes back to the track. The yellow point displayed
on the route is the point the ship tries to reach. Bigger is the value, faster the ship will try to
get back on the route but more intensive will be the rudder usage when the ship is sailing
along the track.
CTS SPEED LIMIT
It is the maximum of course change per second that the TCS can accept. Is not used anymore
for TCS, but can be used as reference to control ROT limit and in simulation mode.
STEERING ACCURACY, DEGR
The parameter has influence on the rudder usage. The meaning is the minimum deviation
from the current leg course, which is ignored . Used only on straight part of the route.
MAXIMUM RADIUS, NM
It is the limit for maximum turning radius that used to check planned route against the ship
dynamics
