Layline steering (RACING)
‘Layline steering’ can only be enabled or disabled when ‘Wind
setup’ is set to ‘RACING’. It is enabled in the ‘NORMAL’ sub-
mode.
Layline steering is useful when navigating. It will use the Cross
Track Error (XTE) from the navigator to keep the boat on the
track line. If the XTE from the navigator exceeds 0.15 nm, the
autopilot will calculate its own layline towards the waypoint and
follow that. Layline steering is not active when turning, tacking
or gybing.
‘XTE’ will be displayed in the upper left corner under the mode
index when layline steering is active.
Range: Enabled/Disabled
Default: Enabled
