I. e.:
On straight leg:
--
All values will be adopted from
Heading Control mode.
On curved path:
--
The radius planned for the next
track change manoeuvre is
maintained.
--
The rudder limit remains at Max.
--
Alert "Check Settings" is displayed
(see section 1.4.5.1.7.2).
If during automatic change--over from
Track Control to Heading Control -- the
ship is in a track change manoeuvre,
the track course of the next track sec-
tion is taken as the new set course
(preset heading). The radius planned
for the current track change manoeuvre
is taken as manoeuvre parameter.
