SETUP Sensors
From the Multi Center you may calibrate all transducers
connected to the Nexus Server or other Nexus instrument,
such as Log, depth, Wind, Compass, GPS Antenna,
Temperature Sensor etc.
8.10.1
SETUP sensors [Log]
Calibration value for speed and distance (1.00 - 1.99).
Drive the boat a measured distance at normal speed.
Compare the distance with the trip counter.
Calculate the value with the following formula:
True distance from the sea chart :
Log trip counter distance:
The current calibration value:
New calibration value.
T
L
C
N
If you suspect a current in the water, drive the boat in both
directions and divide trip counter distance by 2.
8.10.2
SETUP sensors [Temp]
Value for compensation of the water temperature
measurement.
To add, use underlining character (+) ahead of the digit ( +1 °).
To subtract, use minus character (-) ahead of the digit (-1 °).
8.10.3
SETUP sensors [Depth]
Calibration of the depth transducer position.
This option is used to select whether the displayed water depth is
measured from the water level or the keel.
To measure from the keel, use the minus ( - ) sign.
Example: ( -01.2 ). The distance from the transducer to the keel is 1.2
m
To measure from the water surface, use the plus ( + ) sign.
Example: ( +00.4 ). The distance from the transducer to the water
surface is 0.4 m.
The selected value will be subtracted or added from the measured
depth.
