15.Go back to the [DOCKSIDE SETUP] menu. Select [RUDDER LIMIT SPEED] and
push the knob.
Set the rudder center position, then set the maximum rudder limits or "hard-over" points
for the rudder system.
NAVpilot will AUTOMATICALLY set the port/starboard direction of the rudder angle in this
step. It does not matter which way the rudder reference unit arm or linear sensor rod is
installed as this correction will be done electronically.
NAVpilot will AUTOMATICALLY "linearize" the rudder indication values if the rudder turns
further in one direction than the other direction. Therefore, it is recommended that you
make both port and starboard rudder values the same. This will avoid confusion for the
customer during operation. Also, numeric value selected is not critical and need not be
measured as long as you feel that your estimation is close to the proper value.
