    4. HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR NAVPILOT 4.1.1 Sea state Your NAVpilot has an automatic adjustment feature which sets up the equipment ac- cording to ship's characteristics and sea state, for optimum performance in the AUTO, NAV and WIND modes. In addition, a self-learning algorithm is incorporated: Param- eters for rudder ratio, counter rudder and auto trim gains are constantly optimized based on the steering history of your boat, and are stored in memory for future navi- gation.

HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR NAVPILOT How to manually set NAVpilot steering parameters When [MANUAL-CALM], [MANUAL-MODERATE] or [MANUAL-ROUGH] is selected as the sea state, set [MANUAL PARAMETER] as below. You can set three parameters for the MANUAL function: Weather, Rudder gain and Counter rudder.
  • Page 74 4. HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOUR NAVPILOT [RUDDER GAIN]: When the boat's heading deviates from the set course, the NAVpilot adjusts the rudder to correct it. The rudder angle (number of degrees) which is steered against every degree of course deviation is known as the rudder gain. The following illustrations show how many degrees the NAVpilot steers the rudder in order to nullify 4 degrees of course deviation with various settings of the rudder gain.
