What to do if Simrad AP25 Autopilot System displays Shallow water?
If your Simrad AP25 Autopilot System displays 'Shallow water', it means depth data is missing. Carefully observe the actual depth, adjust the alarm limit if not hazardous, steer to a safe depth so the alarm resets automatically, or turn off the shallow alarm if depth data is missing.
Why is my Simrad Autopilot System making the boat go off course?
If the boat is off course when using the Simrad Autopilot System, it could be due to the boat's heading being outside the fixed off-course limit or extreme weather conditions, or too slow speed. To resolve this: 1. Check the steering parameters (Rudder, Autotrim, Seastate filter). 2. Increase the Rudder value. 3. Increase boat speed, if possible, or steer by hand.
What to do if Simrad Autopilot System shows 'Low supply voltage'?
If your Simrad Autopilot System displays 'Low supply voltage', it means the supply voltage is less than 10.8 Volts. To address this: 1. Verify the voltage in the System Data Menu. 2. Switch the autopilot off and charge the batteries. 3. Check/repair the battery charger.
What to do if Simrad Autopilot System shows 'High supply voltage'?
If your Simrad Autopilot System displays 'High supply voltage', it indicates that the supply voltage exceeds 31.2 V. To resolve this: 1. Verify the voltage in the System Data Menu. 2. Switch the autopilot off. 3. Check/repair the battery charger.
How to resolve Failure active Control Unit on Simrad Autopilot System?
To address a 'Failure active Control Unit' message on your Simrad Autopilot System: * Press the STBY button on an "Inactive" unit to reset it. * Check or repair the Robnet2 cable. * Replace the control unit PCB.
What does high supply voltage mean on Simrad Autopilot System?
If your Simrad Autopilot System displays 'High supply voltage', it means the AC20/AC40 Mains exceeds 44 V, or the AC10 Mains exceeds 29 V. Verify this in the System Data Menu, switch the autopilot off, and check/repair the battery charger.
How to fix Compass data missing on Simrad Autopilot System?
If your Simrad Autopilot System shows 'Compass data missing', and multiple compasses are connected, use the User Setup2/Source select menu to select a different compass. If no compass is available, make a source update. Check connections and replace the compass PCB, ensuring you do not cut cables and use the screw terminals inside.
What does low supply voltage mean on Simrad Autopilot System?
If your Simrad Autopilot System displays 'Low supply voltage', it means the mains voltage is less than 9 Volts. Verify this in the System Data Menu. Switch the autopilot off, charge the batteries, and check/repair the battery charger.
Why is my Simrad Autopilot System boat off course?
If your Simrad Autopilot System boat is off course, it may be due to extreme weather conditions or too slow speed. Check the steering parameters (Rudder, Autotrim, Seastate filter), increase the Rudder value, and increase boat speed if possible. If not, steer by hand.
How to fix 'Failure active Control Unit' on Simrad Autopilot System?
If your Simrad Autopilot System indicates 'Failure active Control Unit', and the active control unit goes silent, here's how to troubleshoot: 1. Press the STBY button on an "Inactive" unit to reset. 2. Check/repair Robnet2 cable. 3. Replace the control unit PCB.
