5.15.14 Polar Table Manipulation
A special set of RS232 commands are available for the
manipulation of polar performance data. Using these
commands it is possible to read and adjust individual
elements of the polar table or scale the whole polar table.
An example of the polar table format is shown in Table 10.
The syntax and function of each command is as described in
the following Paragraphs.
5.15.15 Output Polar Table Value
####
PO,s,nn(CR)
s = single digit number between 0 and 9 which represents a
column in the Polar Table (see Table 10). Each column of
the table has a true wind angle associated with it.
nn = two digit value between 02 and 22 which represents a
rw in the Polar Table.
Rows 02 to 18 represent true wind angles from 20 to 180
degrees in increments of 10 degrees.
Row 19 represents the optimum upwind VMG.
Row 20 represents the true wind angle associated with 19.
Row 21 represents the optimum downwind VMG.
Row 22 represents the true wind angle associated with 21.
Issuing this command will cause the following message to
be output:
P,xx.x,yy.yy(CR)
where:
xx.x = three digit value representing true wind speed
associated with row 's' of polar table
yy.yy = boat speed in knots if 'nn' = 02-18
