REMOTE CONTROLS
To use the remote control, leave the
autopilot in the PILOT mode when you go
up to the flying bridge. This will leave the
vessel under control. At the flying bridge,
press both pushbuttons on the remote
control and hold them down for one
second until you see the command point
move to the REM position.
The remote control is similar to the main
control panel of the autopilot. The remote
has a DODGE/TURN toggle switch
instead of separate pushbuttons for these
functions.
For a panic turn, hold the toggle switch in
the DODGE position and press a
pushbutton while in PILOT or NAV.
To lock the rudder at dead ahead, hold
the toggle switch in the DODGE position
without pressing either pushbutton.
Release the toggle switch to return to the
original course.
To initiate a special turn while in PILOT,
push the toggle switch to the TURN
position and release it. Then press either
pushbutton to initiate a U-Turn,
emergency turn, or continuous turn.
To change the type of turn, place the
master select switch on the remote in the
STANDBY position. Push the toggle
switch to the TURN position and release
it. Select the type of turn desired by
pressing and releasing either the red or
green pushbutton.
TO RECALL THE PILOT'S LAST
PROGRAMMED COURSE, hold the
toggle switch in the DODGE position
while rotating the master select switch
from POWER STEER to PILOT.
If you have mechanical steering, you can
disengage the clutch on the drive unit and
return to hand steering by selecting the
STANDBY mode.
When you want to go back to the main
control unit, leave the remote in the
PILOT mode so the vessel is under
control. Walk back to the wheelhouse
and press both the red and green
ARROW keys. Hold them down for one
second until the command point moves
back to the MASTER position.
