CPC B63H 25/42 (2013.01) [B63H 25/02 (2013.01); B63H 2020/003 (2013.01); B63H 2025/026 (2013.01)] | 10 Claims |
1. An automatic setting device for automatically setting a control device for a plurality of ship propulsion devices configured to generate propulsion forces of a ship, the automatic setting device comprising:
an input operation setting unit configured to set an input operation for the ship;
a target behavior acquisition unit configured to acquire target behavior of the ship corresponding to the input operation set by the input operation setting unit;
a ship information acquisition unit configured to acquire ship information that is information about at least one of a position and a direction of the ship;
an actual behavior calculation unit configured to calculate actual behavior of the ship on the basis of the ship information acquired by the ship information acquisition unit; and
a propulsion force setting unit configured to set a magnitude and a direction of a propulsion force that is generated by each of the plurality of ship propulsion devices on the basis of the actual behavior of the ship calculated by the actual behavior calculation unit and the target behavior of the ship acquired by the target behavior acquisition unit,
wherein the propulsion force setting unit comprises
an initial propulsion force setting unit configured to set a magnitude and a direction of a propulsion force that is initially generated by each of the plurality of ship propulsion devices as a magnitude and a direction of an initial propulsion force after the input operation for the ship is set by the input operation setting unit; and
a setting value storage unit configured to store the magnitude and the direction of the propulsion force generated by each of the plurality of ship propulsion devices as propulsion force setting values when the actual behavior of the ship is within an allowable range of the target behavior of the ship.
