2. Boat speed offset correction to minimise tack-to-
tack errors.
3. Variable damping 0-99 seconds.
4. Dynamic damping available.
5. Acceleration, deceleration indicator.
6. Analogue indicators available.
7. Programmable meter scaling.
8. High/low alarm available.
Boat Speed is probably the most fundamental piece of
information on the h2000 and is used in many of the
calculations of higher functions: true wind
angle/speed/direction, VMG, the log and trip functions.
Boat Speed is also the primary performance measure that
the boat is sailed to. Accurate calibration of Boat Speed is
therefore fundamental to the performance of the system.
It is also important to be aware of the effect you can have
over the readout via the damping facility. Damping set for
twenty knots of breeze will not be as satisfactory in two
knots - you must be prepared to alter the damping regularly,
remembering that the calmer the conditions are, the lower
the damping required.
2.9.12 Course
Menu heading: NAVIGATE
Function text: COURSE
Update rate: 1Hz
Units: ºM or ºT
Note
Requires heel sensor.
This incorporates Leeway into heading and is sometimes
called Course Made Good. Leeway can only be calculated if
you have the heel sensor fitted, but Course is the preferred
function for most navigational purposes and should be used
when possible.
