Autotrim standard value is 40 which should work well on
most boats. On sailboats it may be preferable to set Autotrim
to zero, to avoid unwanted rudder offset when changing
course
Rudder Limit should be kept at 20 degrees unless there is a
need for more rudder when performing dockside
maneuvers.
Note ! In no event should the Rudder Limit be set to a value
higher than the actual maximum rudder angle.
Final sea trial
q After having completed all settings in the Installation
Menu, take the boat out and perform a final sea trial in
open waters with sufficient distance to other traffic.
q Steer the boat on all cardinal headings in AUTO
COMPASS mode.
q Start with low and medium speeds to get familiar with
the response from the AP11.
q Try the effect of LO and HI speed settings manually.
q If the hardware for automatic HI/LO speed selection is
connected and configured, verify that the HI/LO
transition is occurring, and the HI/LO parameters are
changing after the transition speed is crossed (by more
than 1 Knot higher or lower speed).
q Try the Dodge function and the U-turn.
