Trawl info reporter

Measures a trawl system's warp tensions, door spreads and net openings, as output ports and on the HUD.

Net N hangs between door N (port) and door N + 1 (starboard) and is towed by warps N and N + 1, so NumNets nets have NumNets + 1 doors and warps. Every value is filtered over the last FilterSteps accepted steps; the first accepted step fills the filter. Spreads and widths are horizontal distances, heights vertical distances.

Example configuration excerpt

<Lib LibName = "fishery"
SimObject = "Trawl/TrawlReporter"
Name = "TrawlReport"
FilterSteps = "30"
Corner = "TopLeft"
NumNets = "1"
/>

Configuration parameters

Name Width Description
NumNets 1 The number of trawl nets, side by side.
FilterSteps 1 The number of accepted steps the outputs are filtered over (Default: 30).
Corner 1 The HUD corner of the values: TopLeft, TopRight, BottomLeft or BottomRight (Default: TopLeft).
