Options
Range = 1 to 9
Levels 1 to 3 minimize the amount of pilot activity. This conserves
power, but may compromise short-term course-keeping accuracy.
Levels 4 to 6 should give good course keeping with crisp, well con-
trolled turns under normal operating conditions.
Levels 7 to 9 give the tightest course keeping and greatest rudder
activity (and power consumption). This can lead to a rough passage
in open waters as the SPX-5R Drive system may 'fight' the sea.
