Hello
I'm curious about the DFF3D Roll Offset using an SCX20:
The SATELLITE COMPASS™ itself should be calibrated to offset the roll and pitch for PBG.
6.2. SATELLITE COMPASS™ - Roll and Pitch OffsetThe SATELLITE COMPASS™ itself should be calibrated to offset the roll and pitch for PBG.Step 1:At the calm area such as inside the harbor, where is not affected by wave, etc., check the reclining condition oftransducer in the following menu, as well as seeing how the bottom is reclined in the cross section mode.[Home] – [Settings] – [Multi Beam Sonar] – [Initial Setup] – [DFF3D Monitoring]
When I go to DFF3D Monitoring as instructed above I get a value for Roll of about +2 Degrees. Seems right as the boat has a little list and I notice by correcting for list on vessel I can move this value around, and even to 0. But in real use I can't always get to a perfect at 0 degrees with people/gear/fuel/water moving around so I'm thinking this is where offset comes in?
If for example I have this +2 degree roll, should i use the SCX offset calibration to compensate for it?
If so, and given that I'm showing a +2 degrees value in monitoring, would I then put +2 degree or -2 degree value into the scx20 roll offset calibrator?
Thanks
