Section 12 Automatic Sailing (Option) 
 
 
 
When automatic sailing is performed, the operator must confirm the 
safety of the route and the safety at crossing of a safety contour line. 
Otherwise, an accident may occur. 
 
When Auto Pilot is connected to this equipment, it is possible to calculate the course to steer from the 
planned route and the own ship’s position and guide the ship automatically according to the planned 
route by outputting the course to steer to Auto Pilot. 
 
Note 
•  The ECDIS screen cannot be terminated during automatic sailing.   
•  When MAG (Magnetic Compass) is selected as the sensor source of Heading (ship’s heading), 
automatic sailing cannot be started. 
 
Memo 
For the details of the principle and setting of automatic sailing, refer to "18.13 Setting Automatic 
Sailing Parameter Values". 
For the details of the Auto Pilot operation, refer to the Auto Pilot Instruction Manual.
