Automatic shift

The amount of automatic shift is calculated with speed, and the amount is limited
to 60% of the range in use. For example, if you set the shift speed setting for 15
knots and the ship is running at 10 knots, the amount of shift will be about 40%.
The formula for determining shift amount is as shown below.
