2.3 AP26 and AP27 with MSD50 Stern Drive
unit
Note ! The information in section 2.3 only applies if your autopilot is
driving a Simrad MSD50 Stern Drive.
The MSD50 Stern drive unit has a relative feedback signal which
needs a zero point setting after the autopilot has been turned on.
Refer to the MSD50 manual for further information.
Zero point setting
Note ! If you do not need a rudder angle display when leaving the dock,
just steer the boat manually on a straight course and press the
AUTO button. The zero point is then set automatically.
If you prefer to use the rudder angle display when leaving the
dock, proceed as follows:
After turn on the rudder angle
display will alternate between
10 degrees port and starboard
to indicate that the "rudder"
zero point need be set.
