Square-turn
The square turn feature in AUTO mode can also be made a
rectangle or any pattern when the next turn is 90°.
The user decides whether the first turn should be to Port or
Starboard.
Ensure that the Square-turn pattern has been selected under the
User Set-up menu. Refer to Turn Pattern select on page 45.
To enter Square turn mode:
Press of the TURN/DODGE/INFO button repeatedly until
SQUARE is flashing in the display.
Boat turning to starboard
The time between each 90° course change can be
adjusted before the turn is initiated.
The autopilot will continue on the set course until
you press either the PORT or STBD button to
select the direction in which to make the first course
change. If you do not press PORT or STBD within
1 minute, the autopilot will return to AUTO mode
and stay on course.
When the square turn is selected you can change the
time between each course change hence the length
of the leg. While you are on the leg you can also
change the time and thus change the shape of the
pattern. You can also at any time change the set
course.
To exit square-turn mode, press any of the mode
buttons. When pressing the AUTO button, the new
set course is shown in the upper portion of the
display.
