22 ST600R Autopilot Control Unit
Returning to the Previous Apparent Wind Angle
(LAST WND)
If for any reason the vessel is steered away from the selected
apparent wind angle (for example, a dodge manoeuvre or selecting
Standby) you can return to the previous locked wind angle:
1. Press STANDBY and AUTO together for 1 second to display the
previous apparent wind angle (LAST WND).
The LAST WND? text alternates with the previous wind angle and
direction. The previous locked heading is displayed, with an
indicator to show you the direction in which the vessel will turn.
2. Check that it is safe to turn on to this course.
3. To accept this apparent wind angle, press STANDBY and AUTO
together within 7 seconds.
If you do not accept the previous wind within this time, the autopilot
will lock on to the current apparent wind angle.
Dodges
Full control is still available from the keypad when the autopilot is in
Vane mode.
• Dodge manoeuvres are accomplished by simply selecting the
desired course change using the course change keys
(-1, +1, -10 or +10). Both the locked heading and locked apparent
wind angle are adjusted.
• Once the hazard has been avoided, you can reverse the previous
course change, or return to the previous apparent wind angle
(LAST WND).
