Turns Indicator Settings

The base orientation of the Turns Indicator can be adjusted.

Setting the Turns Indicator Base Orientation

To adjust the base orientation of the Turns Indicator arrow use either of the following methods:

• Manual Entry - Key in the desired offset in the Base Heading field. Values entered in the Base Heading field will be subtracted from the ROV's compass heading so that when the ROV's heading matches the value entered, the arrow will point straight up.
• Use the Current ROV Heading - to use the current heading of the ROV as the base orientation, click on the compass button. The Turns Indicator arrow will point straight up when the ROV heading matches that direction.

Clearing the Turns Indicator Base Orientation

To clear the base orientation of the Turns Indicator arrow, either key in 0 in the Based Heading field, or click on the clear Base Heading button.
