The same procedure as for cross bearing is applied for automatic position fixing and manual position fixing. 1 Select the [Transfer Position Line] (ON/OFF of TPL) checkbox. 2 Select a TPL calculation method. When determining TPL from the ship’s heading through water, ship’s speed, current direction, and current speed, select [HDG/STW]. To change the ship’s heading, ship’s speed through water, current direction, and current speed subsequently, change the value in each of the [HDG], [STW], [Set], and [Drift] boxes. To determine TPL from the ship’s speed, select [COG/SOG].

Section 4 Range and Bearing Measurement Methods 4-66 6 Create the second LOP with the same procedure as for cross bearing. TPL is automatically drawn by determining the traveling distance from the time difference from the 1st LOP to the observation time and the bearing and speed of the ship. The intersection between the 2nd LOP and TPL becomes the own ship’s position based on the both-side positioning method. • When [HDG/STW] is set to ON, TPL of the same angle as that of the 1st LOP and same time as that of 2nd LOP is created based on the position determined by adding the HDG/STW vector and the Set/Drift vector. • When [COG/SOG] is ON, TPL is created by using COG/SOG. Note Since transfer to the past LOP is not possible, TPL cannot be created when the time of LOP is prior to the time of LOP1. 1324235.5 TPL Mark45.513141314 COG/SOG HDG/STW Set/Drift The second LOP is determined 10 minutes after.

The intersection becomes the own ship’s position. However, when multiple intersections are created, the one closest to the own ship’s position among those that are displayed in the own ship information area is used as the own ship’s position. In this case, the own ship’s position is outside of the sensor detection range, the position closest from the bearing starting point is used as the own ship’s position.
