Display Options

You can change the display of the MultiTrawl using customization panels. Right-click the view to open them.

Controls
  • Trawl Setup: select Auto to automatically detect the number of trawls or select manually the type of trawl gear in use. If you change the trawl gear, change this setting accordingly.
  • Door Spread:
    • Current value: current total spread distance.
    • Nominal value: total spread distance you want to have. If the value of the current distance becomes larger or smaller than the nominal value, the alignment axis appears in red.
    • Tolerance: tolerance threshold between the current and nominal values.
  • Reset nominal: if the current spread distance is correct, click to make this distance the nominal value.
  • Track History: zoom in and out of the time scale of the trawl tracks.

Settings
  • Camera: change the viewing angle of the 3D view.
  • Clump Spreads:
    • Show distances: real values of spread between two door sensors.

    • Show projections: calculated values of linear spread between door sensors. These values have a yellow dot instead of a green dot.

    Note: Spread distances and projection distances should be the same. If not, it means the doors or clumps are not aligned.
  • Time Ticks: select Show dates to show the current time on the timescale or Show delays to show the time that has elapsed since the trawl was put in water.
  • Warp Labels: display the warp lengths received from a winch control system or the slant distance received from a Duplex sensor.
  • Door Gauges and Clump Gauges:
    • Show roll gauges and Show pitch gauges: displays angular gauges to help with door pitch and roll monitoring.

Models

You can change the model of trawl doors or clumps.

Click the arrows to select the model. The 3D view will change accordingly.
