NAV Mode

AUTO mode. It does however not include the Nav/Wind and the
Source select items.
WIND Mode
The User setup menu for WIND mode is the
same as for NAV mode. In addition you have:
Wind response
If the deviation between the commanded wind angle and
measured wind angle is too big, the ‘Wind response’ can be
increased to reduce the deviation.
Note ! First make sure that the deviation between the Course To Steer
(CTS) and the measured heading is minimal.
If the measured wind angle is S-ing around the commanded wind
angle or the rudder activity is too high, the ‘Wind response’
should be reduced.
Range: 1 – 7
Default: 3
WIND Auto
The lower part of the display page will only appear if the
autopilot has been set up for racing in the installation menu
(page 92). See page 41 for information about the RACING
parameters.
