Simrad AP35 Autopilot
If no speed data is available on either the INSTR channel (VHW) or the POS
source (VTG), manual speed selection is required. The AP35 will always
default to the HI speed steering parameters when the system is first turned
on, and with speed data failure.
If manual speed selection occurs (the user manually selects HI or LO
parameters), the manual parameter set will remain in effect until the AUTO
mode is re-selected.
Rotate the course dial clockwise until the transition speed is set to the
desired value in knots.
Proceed to next menu item by pressing STBD [>] button.
Autotrim WORK
The
permanently switched off in the WORK
mode. If the Autotrim is set to ON, it is
automatically switched off when the speed
is below 2 kts. (Ref. page 23). Rotate the
course dial to select between ON and OFF.
Proceed to next menu item by pressing STBD [>] button.
Initial Rudder
When Actual is selected, the autopilot will
use the current rudder position as midship
reference
switching from Stby to Auto or Nav. (or
Dodge).
When Midship is selected the autopilot will
use zero degrees as midship reference.
Hence, the rudder will always move to
midship when switching from Stby (or
Dodge) to Auto or Nav mode.
Master reset
Note !
A Master Reset is part of the final test at factory and will reset the memories
to factory settings. Unless you need to clear all stored values during the
installation setup procedure, you should not perform a Master Reset.
If Master Reset is performed, Dockside settings must be done again, as well
as Interface- and Seatrial settings. If an RFC35 or RC25 is connected, the
compass must be re-calibrated!
