[Performance Processor]
This section defines what variables are read in from the Performance
Processor to Deckman (note that the NMEA FFD/h1000 connection
work via the NMEA interface, see below). The columns are:
1. B&G identification number (or channel number). See Table 5.8 of
the Hercules 200 manual for the standard B&G identification
numbers; to use the remote functions (Table 5.9), 32 must be added
to the channel number. If the tables above do not contain the
variable you require, the B&G identifier can be in the form nnn.fff,
where nnn denotes the node number and fff the B&G function
number for the B&G network; see Table 5.15 of the Hercules 2000
manual and/or contact your B&G agent for more information.
2. Deckman identification number, as listed in the [variables]
section above.
3. B&G symbol indicating port tack.
4. Indicator to switch the sign, since all variables should be positive on
starboard (1=switch; otherwise 0).
For example, the line:
0
0
H
0
means that B&G variable number 0 is read in to the variable with
Deckman identification number 0, with the sign for port tack being H
and no switch of sign.
[Ockam],[ockgps],[magnum]
This section controls the input of variables from an Ockam instrument
system. The columns are:
1. Ockam tag, with the full stop/period symbol (.) replacing the prime
(') on the Ockam system.
2. Deckman identification number.
3. The third column is no longer used by the software and is ignored;
any value can therefore be entered when adding new variables.
For example, the line:
H
0
30.0
