The Wind response is used on sailboats
•
Increase the Wind value if the difference between the set wind
angle and the actual wind angle is too big
•
Decrease the Wind value if the actual wind angle is S-ing around
the set wind angle, or if the rudder activity is too high
The performance mode is indicated in the top left corner of the
autopilot page.
•
HI-A: High response mode set automatically
•
LO-A: Low response mode set automatically
•
HI-M: High response mode set manually
•
LO-M: Low response mode set manually
Ú Note:
If no speed input is available the autopilot defaults to LO
steering parameters when engaging an automatic mode. This is
a safety feature to prevent oversteering
Sea state filter (AC12N/AC42N)
This filter is used to reduce rudder activity and autopilot sensitivity
in rough weather.
•
OFF: Seastate filter is disabled. This is the default setting.
•
AUTO: Reduces rudder activity and autopilot sensitivity in rough
weather by an adaptive process. The AUTO setting is
recommended if you want to use the seastate filter.
•
MANUAL: Linked to the steering response control settings
described previously. It may be used to manually find the
optimum combination of course keeping and low rudder activity
in rough but steady sea conditions.
Sailing (AC12N/AC42N)
Ú Note:
Sailing parameters are only available when the boat type
is set to Sail.
•
Tack time: Controls the rate of turn (tack time) when performing
a tack in wind mode.
•
Tack angle: Controls the angle that the boat will tack to between
50º - 150º in AUTO mode
•
Wind mode: Select what wind function the autopilot will use
when in wind mode
