    3.1 Operation in Track mode Track mode is used to maintain a track between two waypoints created on a GPS, Decca, or Loran navigation system. The ST6000 Plus will then compute any course changes to keep your boat on track, automatically compensating for tidal streams and leeway.

  • Page 26: Automatic Acquisition

    ST6000 Plus Autopilot Control Unit Owner’s Handbook Automatic acquisition Automatic acquisition can only be achieved if the pilot is receiving cross track error and bearing to waypoint information (via SeaTalk or NMEA 0183). It is initiated as follows: 1. Bring the vessel to within 0.1 nm of track 2.

  • Page 27: Manual Acquisition

    Chapter 3: Advanced Operation Previous Heading D3505-1 • The display shows the new bearing to waypoint. Manual acquisition For manual track acquisition, when only cross track error data is available: 1. Steer the vessel to within 0.1 nm of track. 2.

  • Page 28: Cross Track Error

    ST6000 Plus Autopilot Control Unit Owner’s Handbook Cross track error Cross track error (XTE) is the distance between the current position and a planned route. This is displayed in nautical miles (nm), statute miles (SM) or kilometres, and is taken directly from your navigator.

  • Page 29: Waypoint Arrival And Advance

    As the vessel arrives at the target waypoint, the navigation receiver should select (manually or automatically) the next target waypoint. The ST6000 Plus detects the new target waypoint number, sounds the Waypoint Advance alarm and displays the Waypoint Advance information. This display shows the new bearing to waypoint and the direction the boat will turn to acquire the new track.

  • Page 30: Skipping A Waypoint - Seatalk Navigators Only

    Advance While the waypoint advance alarm is sounding, Track mode is suspended and the ST6000 Plus maintains the current boat heading. 1. Check that it is safe to turn onto the new track. 2. Press the track key. This will cancel the waypoint arrival alarm and turn the boat towards the next waypoint.

  • Page 31: Position Confirmation At The Start Of A Passage

    3.2 Operation in Vane mode (WindTrim) Vane mode, also known as WindTrim, allows the ST6000 Plus to maintain a course relative to an apparent wind angle. It uses wind trim to eliminate the effects of turbulence and short term wind variations, and provides smooth precise performance under Vane mode operation with minimal power consumption.

  • Page 32: Selecting Vane Mode

    To use Vane mode, the ST6000 Plus must receive wind information from one of the following sources: • SeaTalk Wind instrument, connected to a ST6000 Plus via SeaTalk •...

  • Page 33: Returning To The Previous Apparent Wind Angle

    Chapter 3: Advanced Operation Note: This method should only be used for minor adjustments to the apparent wind angle, since turning the boat affects the relationship between the true and apparent wind angles. For major changes, return to Standby mode, steer onto the new heading, and reselect Vane mode. Returning to the previous apparent wind angle (LAST WND) If for any reason the vessel is steered away from the selected apparent...

  • Page 34: Wind Shift Alarm

    ST6000 Plus Autopilot Control Unit Owner’s Handbook Wind shift alarm The wind shift alarm sounds, and the text WINDSHIFT is displayed, if a wind shift of more than 15° is detected. 1. Press standby to cancel the alarm and return to hand steering, and steer onto the required heading.

  • Page 35: Operating Hints

    Chapter 3: Advanced Operation Operating hints • It is important to ensure that the amount of standing helm is minimised by careful sail trimming. • The headsail and mainsail should be reefed a little early rather than too late. • In Vane Mode the pilot will react to long-term wind shifts, but will not correct for short-term changes, such as gusts.

  • Page 36: Changing The Rudder Gain

    ST6000 Plus Autopilot Control Unit Owner’s Handbook D3606-1 Changing the rudder gain Press the +1 and -1 keys together for 1 second to display the Rudder Gain screen, and adjust the setting in the same way as for the response level.

  • Page 37: Off Course

    Chapter 3: Advanced Operation Off course OFFCOURSE This alarm is activated when the vessel has been off course from the locked heading by more than the specified angle for more than 20 seconds (see section 2.3, Using Auto mode). The alarm is cleared if the heading recovers or the course is changed, or if the operating mode is changed.

  • Page 38: Waypoint Advance

    ST6000 Plus Autopilot Control Unit Owner’s Handbook • Track mode is engaged and the position transducer (GPS, Loran, Decca) is receiving a low strength signal – this will clear as soon as the signal strength improves. • Vane mode is engaged and the autopilot has not received wind angle data for 30 seconds.
