Change-Over Switch
A Change-Over (C/O) switch may be required to isolate the
autopilot system from the steering gear system. This switch is
normally included as part of the steering gear system. The
switch may also be combined with mode selection of the
autopilot (ref. System Select).
In most cases a Manual/Autopilot Change-Over switch will be
included in the steering gear bridge panel. This is normally a
potential free galvanic isolated contact that can be used to toggle
the autopilot between Auto/NFU. See
Figure 2-13 for
connections.
