3. INITIAL SETTINGS
1) Rotate the knob to select [COMPASS CALIB.] then push the knob.
2) Rotate the knob to select [AUTO] or [MANUAL] then push the knob.
AUTO: The boat turns to starboard about three or four full circles for calibration.
Note that the boat will turn to starboard with the degree set at [MANUAL RUDDER
LIMIT] on the [DOCKSIDE SETUP] menu.
MANUAL: Use the helm to turn the boat to port or starboard for three or four full cir-
cles in a speed of about one minute/circle to perform the calibration.
3) Push the knob to start the calibration.
For [AUTO], the boat starts to turn to starboard, and then the calibration starts auto-
matically. For [MANUAL], turn the boat to starboard or port in a circular course.
Take about two minutes to complete the circle.
• To stop the calibration while the ship is turning, press any key to show the message
"CALIBRATION STOPPED". Press any key again to return to the [SEA TRIAL]
menu.
• When the calibration is successfully completed, the message "CALIBRATION
COMPLETED" appears. Press any key to return to the [SEA TRIAL] menu.
• If the calibration failed, the message "CALIBRATION NOT COMPLETED. RETRY
CALIBRATION?" appears. Push the knob to redo the calibration, or press any key to
escape.
4) Rotate the knob to select [AUTO CALIB. UPDATE] then push the knob.
5) Rotate the knob to select [ON] then push the knob. The AUTO LED lights on the
PG-500.
3. If you have another PG-500/700, select it at [SELECT COMPASS] and calibrate it fol-
lowing the above procedure.
4. If the heading data shown on the Control Unit differs from the indication of the ship's
compass, apply an offset at [COMPASS OFFSET]. This offset is applied to the head-
ing sensor data. For example, if the Control Unit display shows 125° though the ship's
compass reading is 120°, for example, enter "5".
1) Rotate the knob to select [COMPASS OFFSET] then push the knob.
2) Rotate the knob to set a value (setting range: E0.0°-E180.0°, W0.1°-W179.9°) then
push the knob.
5. [COMPASS INFORMATION] shows the name and software version of the compass
connected to the NAVpilot. Select it and push the knob to show compass information,
provided your compass outputs such information.
