Set Thrust Direction, On/Off Thruster

(ONLY IF ON/OFF THRUSTER IS SELECTED, proceed to
page 70 if continuous thruster or Danfoss thruster is selected)
Rotate the course knob clockwise to activate the Set thrust
direction setting.
Rotate the course knob to starboard and verify that the vessel
turns to starboard. The thruster stops after 10 seconds, or when
the (STBD) button is pressed.
If the boat turns to port when the course knob is turned to
starboard, rotate the knob to port to ensure a starboard turn.
This tells the autopilot which direction to turn the thruster.
For ON/OFF thrusters, a change in direction command will
always be delayed 1 second to prevent thruster breakage.
If advanced set-up of the thruster is required, refer to the
SETTINGS menu on page 90.
Proceed to the "Speed source" item on page 71 by pressing the
(STBD) button or return to STANDBY mode by pressing the
(STBY) button.
