Default TDC input manualy ?

Hello subsimers and Uboot enthusiasts,

Im pretty new here so I have a lot of questions but will start with one concerning the TDC and the position keeper.

After watching some videos such as WernerSobes blind sonar shots and some more others I am totally hooked and started to read a lot here in the forum about the problems/tasks real subcommanders had back in pre CPU days to get a working fire solution. Now I am intrested in learning how to use the TDC manualy.

Thanks to the great TDC introductions I found here in the forum but still I have a lot of unsolved problems... Although I have plenty of them I start with one question:

QUESTION: Is there a method to feed the position keeper with numbers from your own calculations? There are several ways/buttons to transfer distance and bearing but in case I have a distance calculated or plotted can I put it in there "by hand" too?

"Sure" you will say... "but how" I will reply
In all video totorials I have seen they only say "I put it in the TDC" then you do come "click click click" and all seems to be in there.

I played around with the input weels and recognized that at start the range dial (wich is confusing to me anyways) goes from hard left 131 up to 1135 (is that yards? nm?) if turned completely to the right. After experimenting with the stadimeter the range of the dial has changed and I am not able to figure out why or how I can reset the whole thing to default settings again.

OOPS HERE COMES ANOTHER: I have seen that you guys have a kompass/toolhelper like layout around your sub on the attack map that shows the angles from 1-360° and such... WANNA HAAaaaave too
I think I have version 1.1 what version is recommended?

I hope somone likes to help me on my way,
Greets from Germany
