4.2 Description of Installation Settings
Note ! The installation settings must be performed as part of the
installation of the AP25 system. Failure to do so correctly may
prohibit the AP25 from functioning properly!
The Installation menu can only be accessed in STBY mode.
The Installation Settings are grouped into the following
functional categories:
• Language: Selection of language used for display
information
• Interface: Setting the format of the clock/data heading
output for radars connected to the autopilot
computer.
• Display units: Setting the units to be displayed for wind
speed, water temperature and depth.
• Seatrial: Presents settings and automatic calibrations to
be performed during sea trial.
• Parameters: Permits viewing and changing of basic
steering parameters (See also Response
control, page 42).
• Service:
System data, SimNet setup, Master reset of
memories.
Each group is designed to focus on specific functions, and enable
quick access when changes need to be made.
Some important points regarding the installation settings:
• When the AP25 is delivered new from the factory AND ANY
TIME AFTER A MASTER RESET OF MEMORIES HAS
BEEN PERFORMED, the installation settings are all reset to
factory preset (default) values. The automatic interface
prompt will appear (see page 67) and a complete setup has to
be m
ade.
• The values that are selected from within the Installation
Settings Menu, are stored in the memory of the AP25 system.
No specific action is required to "SAVE" the selected values.
Once the value is changed, it is stored until the next time the
menu item is selected and changed.
