Dockside Alignment/test
General
Prior to sea-trial, the system shall be "Dock-tested" for alignment and
pre-setting of parameters.
It is recommended that the following general procedure be followed.
RF14XU Feedback unit (ON-OFF valves)
Make sure that the RF14XU Feedback unit is configured for the
correct rudder deflection direction and ratio (±45° - 60° - 70°- 90°).
The RF14XU is normally delivered for ±45° rudder angle (the yellow
and the green leads are soldered together). Violet, brown and pink
leads are not connected. For ±60° rudder angle, connect yellow and
brown leads. For ±70°, connect yellow and violet leads, and for ±90°,
connect yellow and pink leads. Also ref. to the fig. below.
For change of deflection, make the connections in accordance to the
following list.
Make sure that J1-5 (FB LO) is terminated at a GND point such as TB3-5.
Note !
To check the autopilot for connected rudder response, make the
following test:
• Set Counter Rudder to OFF
• Set Rudder to 1
• Set Weather to OFF
