The shortest distance of the Active Head the tool with which Equipment performs operations, for example: drag head of a Trailer Suction Hopper Dredger, the bucket of an excavtor, a plough, Water Injection Dreger bar, etc.(s) is calculated by the software and can also be displayed as a numerical value in the Numerics view.
An alarm can be defined for this distance(s).
