NautoSteer AS consists of 2 independent steering control
systems that are technically separated from each other. These
steering control systems can be selected by using the steering
mode selector switch.
In NFU direct mode the valves / steering gear are operated
directly without the use of electronics.
In main mode a closed loop control system is used.
Recommendation:
In case of any failure in either 1 of the 2 independent steering
control systems please switch to the other mode by using the
steering mode selector switch to retrieve the steering
capabilities of the control system (see also section 1.3.11).
Please note that depending on the system design the steering
control system may not contain a steering mode selector
switch. In this case it is strongly recommended to be familiar
with the steering control system in order to select the right
steering control in emergency situations.
There are 2, versions of the NautoPilot® Operator Unit available.
They differ in the housing dimensions.
