[MODE TYPE] There are three wind angle modes: AWA (Apparent
Wind Angle), TWA (True Wind Angle), and AUTO.
AWA: The direction (in relation to ship's bow) of the
wind as it appears on board your boat, detected by the
wind sensor. AWA mode requires wind angle and
speed data. Use this mode when wind is stable.
TWA: The actual wind direction, which is a combina-
tion of the apparent wind and your boat's movement.
This mode requires apparent wind angle, apparent
wind speed, your boat's speed and heading. Use this
mode when there is an unstable downwind.
[WIND TACK The tacking in the WIND mode requires the setting of
RUD ANGLE] maximum rudder angle. This angle is calculated auto-
matically when the NAVpilot is installed. If you need to
change the value, do it here.
[WIND DAMP- You can set the damping interval for wind data to com-
ING] pensate for random fluctuation in wind data. The
higher the setting the more "smooth" the data. How-
ever a high damping interval causes delay in receiving
wind data, the amount of delay equivalent to the
damping interval. Turn off wind damping if the wind
data is received stably. This option is effective for port
and starboard wind angles of 55 ° or higher and
[MODE TYPE] is selected to [AWA].
