Final seatrial
After having completed all settings in the Installation
Menu, take the boat out and perform a final seatrial in
open waters at a safe distance from other traffic.
• Steer the boat on all cardinal headings in AUTO mode
• Start with low and medium speeds to get familiar with
the response from the AP28
• Verify the HI/LO transition and the effect of LO and HI
parameter settings (page
19)
• Try the effect of the Response adjust (page 21)
• Try the U-turn function
• If a Non Follow-up lever (or handheld remote) is
connected, test change of modes and verify port and
starboard steering commands of the lever
• Set waypoints into each navigator connected to the
system, and verify that the AP28 steers in NAV mode
for each NAV source
• Try the NoDrift mode
• If the boat is a sailboat use the WIND mode and try
the AP28 at different settings of the apparent wind
angle. Also try the WINDN(av) mode, optimized VMG
and WCV when sailing (tacking) to a waypoint
