- Counter rudder: Counteracts the effect of the vessel turn rate
and inertia
- Autotrim: When the vessel has a constant heading error due to
external forces such as wind and current, the Autotrim function
corrects for this by building up a constant rudder offset. The
Autotrim value is reset every time the AUTO mode is entered
or when a course change greater than approximately 20° is
made. Auto trim is automatically disabled during a turn.
- Init rudder: Defines how the system moves the rudder when
switching from power steering to an automatic mode.
• Center: Moves the rudder to zero position
• Actual: Maintains the rudder offset
- Rudder limit: Determines the maximum rudder movement in
degrees from midship position that the autopilot can
command the rudder in the automatic modes. The Rudder
limit setting is only active during autosteering on straight
courses, NOT during course changes. Rudder limit does not
affect Non-Follow-up steering.
- Off heading limit: Sets the limit for the off heading alarm. An
alarm occurs when the actual heading deviates from the set
heading more than the selected limit.
- Track response: Defines how fast the autopilot shall respond
after having registered a cross track distance
- Track approach angle: Defines the angle used when the vessel
is approaching a leg. This setting is used both when you start
navigating and when you use track offset.
- Course change confirm angle: Defines the limits for course
change to next waypoint in a route. If the course change is
more than this set limit, you are prompted to verify that the
upcoming course change is acceptable.
Sailing (NAC-2/NAC-3)
Ú Note:
Sailing parameters are only available when the boat type
is set to Sail.
• Wind mode: Select what wind function the autopilot will use
when in wind mode
- Auto:
If TWA is <70º: Wind mode will use AWA
If TWA is ≥70º: Wind mode will use TWA
- Apparent
