Notes !
1. If you are in NAV or WIND modes you need not
enter AUTO
mode to manually change the parameter set. Just make a
quick double press on the AUTO button.
2. The manually selected setting (HI or LO) will override the
automatic selection and remain in effect until you re-enter
any automatic mode from STBY.
2.11 PATTERN steering
The AP25 offers a number of different pattern steering features
when in AUTO mode. The U-turn pattern is always available.
Other turn patterns can be selected under the User Set-up 2
menu. Refer to Turn Pattern select on page
55.
U-turn
This feature is very useful in a man overboard situation and
whenever you want to steer back on a reciprocal heading.
U-Turn changes the current set course to be 180 degrees in the
opposite direction. The user must decide whether the U-Turn
should be made to Port or Starboard when bringing the boat on
the new course. U-Turn is activated by a quick press on the
TURN/DODGE button. The AP25 will continue on the set
course until you press either the PORT or STBD button to select
the direction to make the U-Turn. If you do not press PORT or
STBD within 1 minute, the AP25 will return to the AUTO mode
and stay on course.
