A = the distance from bow to the antenna B = the distance from the antenna to the stern C = the distance from the port side to the antenna D = the distance from the antenna to the starboard side The following example should illustrate how the fields Len and Beam (always the complete convoy) and the correct reference point should be used. Example: Length of ship (means the complete convoy) = 400m Beam of ship (means the complete convoy)= 32m Internal GPS-Antenna is mounted 20 meters from stern and 24 meters from starboard. Length[dm] Beam[dm] RefPtExt: : 3999dm (approximated to Len (A+B) : 319dm (approximated to Beam(C+D) A: 380m B: 20m C: 12m D: 20m (must be the same as internal Reference point when no external GPS is connected) RefPtInt: A: 380m B: 20m C: 12m D: 20m The full line as shown will be displayed after pressing Enter: Ship length and beam have to be entered in dm. The values of Len (A+B) and Beam (C+D) has to be the rounded up value from Len[dm] and Beam[dm] e. g. : 3999dm is 400m. Press [Back] return to the Main Menu Screen without saving any changes.

(RefPntExt:) = The position of any external positioning device (GPS Antenna) used as primary position source. (RefPntInt:) = The position of the GPS Antenna (fallback device in case primary source is disabled). NOTE: When receiving position data from large vessels, it should be considered that the position refers to the antenna mounting point upon the vessel. To ensure accurate navigation, the antenna reference points (see Other Vessels Details) should be taken into consideration when determining the vessels position. Also, the electronic chart display in use should be programmed to consider the antenna reference points. Traffic images are represented in true distances only when all displayed targets, including own vessel, are working with AIS position information, which considers antenna reference points.
