Automatic tuning function may take from 1 to 2 minutes to

complete. To stop the Automatic tuning, press the STBY

the parameters can be made from within the Parameters menu

item. See also “Recall Autotune” on page

Proceed to the next menu item by pressing the STBD button, or

return to Standby mode by pressing the STBY button.

Transition Speed

The transition speed is the speed where the autopilot will

automatically change the steering parameter set from HI to LO

parameters, or vice versa (page

27).

The default setting of transition speed is 5 kts.

It is recommended that you set the transition speed to a speed

that represents the speed where the hull begins to plane, or the

speed where you change from slow to cruising speed.

The speed used for the automatic transition is obtained with the

following priority:

1. Speed through water from the speed log source.

2. Speed Over Ground (SOG) from the GPS/Chartplotter.

If no speed data is available, manual speed selection is required.
