COMNAV 201 REMOTE CONTROL
This remote control plugs into the remote
receptacle on the rear of the autopilot.
Control is taken at the remote by pressing
both its pushbuttons for one second. The
decimal point on the 1001 Control Head
display will move to the REMOTE
position. The Standby mode is a safety
feature that allows the remote station to
de-activate the autopilot output to the
steering drive unit. When the switch is in
the TILLER position, the vessel's rudder
will be turned to the same angle as
indicated by the control knob.
To lock the vessel onto a heading under
autopilot control, point the vessel onto a
desired heading, and then place the
switch in the PILOT position. The
pushbuttons can be used to alter the
vessel's heading in one-degree steps, or
by 10 degrees per second after holding
the pushbutton for half a second.
