3.2.9 Tack Source Speed Calibration Setting

The Tack Source setting allows you to define how the
h2000 determines which tack it is presently sailing on, and
therefore decide which is the most appropriate boat speed
sensor and calibration value (port or starboard) to use.

The port and starboard boat speed calibration values can be
automatically switched from either the apparent wind angle
or heel angle if a suitably installed sensor is connected to the
system. The tack source function can also be used to force
the system to select either Port Tack or Starboard Tack
when calibrating boat speed and thus help you to eliminate
tack-to-tack boat speed differences.

The Force Tack options are used to ensure that only one
sensor input is measured during calibration.

Tack Source calibration is done by entering the
corresponding number under:
