Nav Mode; Wind Mode - Simrad AP27 Manual

Response
The Autotune function in the AP26 and AP27 is so refined that
80-85 % of the boats will need no further adjustments of the
steering parameters. On some boats, however, or at particular sea
conditions a fine tuning of the steering parameters may improve
the performance of the autopilot.
A low response level reduces the rudder activity and provides a
