PILOT
The vessel will steer the course indicated
on the left three digits of the display.
The course the vessel is steering can be
changed by pressing either the red or
green
ARROW
keys.
Pressing and releasing either key will
change the heading by one degree.
Pressing and holding either key will
initially change the vessel's heading by
one degree and after a one/half second
delay, by ten degrees per second until
the key is released. The function display
will show a 'c' until the course change is
completed.
Pressing the
TURN
key followed by
either the red or green
ARROW
key will
initiate a special turn (Emergency turn,
Continuous turn, or U-turn; selected in
STANDBY
) in that direction.
The function display will show an 'E', 'C',
or 'U' until the turn is completed.
The
ADJUST
key can now be used to
change the Rudder, Counter Rudder,
Yaw and Turn Rate settings.
NAV
Place the master select switch in this
position when the autopilot is being
operated with a navigation computer (i.e.
GPS, Loran, etc.) which has an NMEA
0183 data format output.
The autopilot operates the same way as
in the
PILOT
position, except that it will
change its course as directed by the
navigation computer to maintain a Zero
Track Error.
The autopilot will display
'Fd:ER'
if there
is a problem with the data it is receiving
such as Low Signal To Noise Ratio, Blink
Alarm, or Incorrect Cycle Selection.
The autopilot will display
'nd:Er'
and
maintain its last course if it does not
receive any data from the navigation
computer.
MEMBRANE KEYPAD
ADJUST KEY
Pressing the ADJUST key repeatedly
displays first the Rudder setting, then
the Counter Rudder, Yaw and finally
the Turn Rate setting for either the

Press the

ARROW
key to
switch between the FAST and SLOW
modes. This will be done automatically if
the speed sensitivity is turned on. Any
setting may be changed between '0' and
'9' while it is displayed by pressing the up
or down
ARROW
key.
