Changing the rudder gain

Press the +1 and -1 keys together for 1 second to display the Rudder
Gain screen, and adjust the setting in the same way as for the response
level. Refer to Chapter 6, Post installation procedures, for instructions
on how to check that the rudder gain is set correctly.
WARNING:
It is important that the rudder gain is correctly set on planing
craft. Incorrect adjustment will lead to poor steering performance
and is dangerous at high speeds.

3.3 Alarms

This section summarises the alarms (in order of priority) that are
reported by the ST5000 Plus.
Press standby to clear an alarm and return to hand steering, unless
indicated otherwise.

SeaTalk failure

STLK FAIL
This silent alarm indicates that there is a wiring fault in the SeaTalk
connection.

Auto release

AUTO RELSE
This alarm is only reported for ST5000 Plus Sterndrive systems, and
indicates that autopilot control has been released following manual
movement of the helm. The alarm is cancelled automatically after 10
seconds.

Off course

OFFCOURSE
This alarm is activated when the vessel has been off course from the
locked heading by more than the specified angle for more than 20
seconds (see section 2.3, Using Auto mode).
The alarm is cleared if the heading recovers or the course is changed,
or if the operating mode is changed.
