  • Page 39: Nav Control

    1 Description Fig. 15: Principle of Course Control The autopilot uses the following information: • Position • Course trim • Drift Other adjustable parameters (like yawing, rudder, economy or precision) are taken into consideration. During a course change maneuver, the drift correction is disabled and a heading change is performed with the set rate of turn or radius (depending on setting).
  • Page 40: Track Control

    1 Description Note The operator must have a good knowledge of the navigation system for the use as this system controls the autopilot with regards to heading alterations, track changes and the corresponding alert philosophy. The operator should closely monitor the progress when sailing on a route. In case of deviations from the route or any uncertainty the operator should switch to auto and use the mode Heading Control.

  • Page 44: Economy / Precision Mode (Weather Adaptivity)

    1 Description 1.9.8  Economy / Precision Mode (Weather Adaptivity) This mode adjusts the optimal heading or track control via the economy or precision function. This function ensures that the NautoPilot 5000 NX (except NautoPilot 5100 NX) adapts ® ® automatically to the actual weather conditions. The economy mode guarantees a reduction of the rudder movement by less heading keeping accuracy.
  • Page 45: Course Trim

    1 Description results in the off heading alarm being triggered before the ship's heading reaches the set set heading. This effect also occurs if the rudder limit is adjusted too close, so the selected RAD / ROT limit is not achievable. When taking the autopilot into operation, make sure that the basic settings (configurations) are precisely adjusted.
  • Page 46: Track Limit Autopilot

    1 Description 1.9.9.6  Track Limit Autopilot Track limit autopilot is active in Course Control and Nav C mode only. It is used as a monitoring threshold for the distance to course line. During Track Control the limit is transmitted by the ECDIS and this value is not used. If the distance to the course line (starboard or port) exceeds the adjusted value, an alert is generated.
  • Page 47: Counter Rudder

    1 Description If the rudder movement at a heading change is too strong or overshoots the new set heading value, rudder should be decreased. If the rudder movement at a heading change is too weak or rate of turn is not reached during heading change maneuver, rudder should be increased.
  • Page 48: Ship Load

    1 Description The steering characteristics and energy efficiency on some vessels with 2 rudders or pod drives can be optimized if the individual rudders are controlled with an offset (toe angle) to each other. The optimum toe angle depends on the speed and draught / load of the vessel and needs to be determined by trials.
