Code 15 & 16: Most GPS systems only send cross track error across the NMEA 0183 data bus with .01 mile (60
feet) resolution. Unfortunately, they display cross track error to the nearest foot. What this means is, don't expect the
autopilot to zero the cross track error because the information it has is-that any crosstrack error less than 60 ft. (as seen
on the GPS display) is zero feet. Adjust parameter 15 up until the boat oscillates back and forth near the course line,
then back it down a few clicks. Increase parameter 16 until you can see that standoff from the course line decreases over
time.
Use Magnetic North
Set North
Use Synthetic XTE
Code 167: On some GPS' this code may result in tighter tracking near waypoints.
Use NMEA Checksum
Code 347: If your GPS calculates checksums wrong, you may still be able to use it with this code turned off. Data
integrity is compromised in this condition.
Use Reversed XTE
Code 18: Some GPS' send the wrong direction to steer with the crosstrack error signal. Use this code to fix this
problem.
Use GPS 1 GPS 2
Code 34: This code switches between the two sources of NMEA navigation data used by the autopilot to steer with.
Update rate for HDG out
Code 49: With this code at the bottom of its range (Down Arrow LED on) the autopilot does not transmit $APHDG. With
any settings other than off, the data is transmitted at a rate equal to (1-code 49 setting) HZ. up to a maximum rate of 10 Hz.
