Rate Sensitivity
This parameter determines how sensitive the Rate of turn
calculation is for changes in the heading signal. The default
setting will fit most vessels. For vessels that can turn quickly
and have a stable heading compass (high performance compass),
the setting should be reduced if the vessel tends to overshoot,
even with a high setting of counter rudder. For a slowly turning
vessel with noisy compass and unstable Rate of turn, the value
could be increased.
Range: 5 - 25.
Default: 15.
