Autopilot settings panel

The Autopilot settings panel gives access to settings that might be changed by the user
during operation of the autopilot.
For information about installation, see the separate NSO-II Installation manual.
Auto-hide
Autopilot information is by default shown on
top of the pages when the Autopilot pop-up
is not displayed. You can select to turn this
information off.
Chart compass
You can select to show a compass symbol around your boat on the
chart panel. The compass symbol will be off when the cursor is active
on the panel.
Locking an NSO-II unit
If two NSO-II units are included in the system, the non-active NSO-II unit can be locked to
prevent unauthorized operation of the autopilot.
When the unit is locked this is indicated with a lock symbol and with text in the pop up.
When the lock function is in use, no automatic modes can be selected from the NSO-II
unit.
¼ Note:
The lock function is not available on the NSO-II unit which is active as pilot control!
If the NSO-II unit is part of an AP24/AP28 system, the unit can be locked from the AP24/
AP28 control unit.
