Simrad AP35 Autopilot
When operating the AP35 in NAV mode to automatically steer through a
route of waypoints, the AP35 will steer to the first waypoint in the route after
you accept the first waypoint as the location to steer to. When you arrive at
the waypoint, the AP35 will display an alert screen with the proposed new
course information displayed. If the required course change is more than 10°
you will need to verify that the upcoming course change is acceptable.
Verification is performed by pressing the NAV button after the alert screen
is displayed. If no verification is received, the AP35 will continue on the
current set course in AUTO mode.

Selecting a different Navigator

If you have more than one Navigation source connected to the AP35, you
will be able to choose any for Navigation. Refer to the User Set-up menu for
details on selecting a different Navigator.
Note !
If the AP35 is connected to a Nav. receiver that does not transmit a message
with bearing to next waypoint, it will pick a XTE message and steer on Cross
Track Error only. In that case you have to revert to AUTO mode at each
waypoint and manually change set course to equal bearing to next waypoint
and then select NAV mode again.
