Seatrial settings
The Seatrial menu presents settings and automatic
calibrations to be performed during seatrial.
The seatrial must always be performed in open
waters at a safe distance from other traffic.
The Seatrial menu can only be accessed if the Dockside
Settings are completed and confirmed.
The seatrial settings are:
- Set Rudder Zero (To verify the dockside
alignment)
- Compass calibration (To automatically
compensate for on-board magnetic interference
and to compensate for a fixed offset (A-error) in
the final heading readout)
- Wind calibration (To compensate for a fixed
mechanical offset of the Wind vane)
- Boat speed calibration
- Transition speed (the speed at which you want to
change the set of steering parameters)
- Automatic tuning (A method of determining the
steering parameters)
Set Rudder 0 (zero)
This adjustment is a final control of the dockside
adjustment (page 74) and should be made in calm sea.
Side forces from wind or current should be avoided.
- Bring the boat up to cruising speed, and head
directly into the wind.
- If the boat has twin engines, synchronize the
engine RPMs.
