Operating variables
This section details the operating functions within the H5000 system.
The System Requirements sections advise of any additional requirements over a standard
system.
For this purpose a standard system is taken as being a Graphic display and CPU with Wind,
Speed, Depth and Compass sensors.
Where a function is obtained from a NMEA source the update rate published is the maximum,
if the incoming NMEA data is slower this will aff ect the displayed data.
All variables described in this section refer to the standard Hydra processor settings unless
indicated with a Hercules or Performance logo.
Indicates that the information listed relates to Hercules
processor functionality which includes Hydra functions.
Indicates that the information listed relates to
Performance processor functionality which includes
Hydra & Hercules functions.
Please contact your local dealer if you wish to upgrade your processor. A list of B&G approved
dealers can be found at www.bandg.com
Aft depth
Aft Depth is an auxiliary Depth function which allows the system to display two Depth
readings: one from the standard transducer, one from an external NMEA sensor or source.
Aft Depth is declared by the system when a valid source of NMEA data is received from a
compatible device. The function name is Aft Depth by default, it can be changed to suit the
confi guration (e.g. “Fwd Depth”).
¼ Note:
Aft Depth is calibrated in the same manner as the standard depth. See ‘Calibration’ for
more details.
