¼ Note: The unit of measurement in the dialog reflects your unit settings.
Boat type
The boat type setting is used by the system to select appropriate preset steering parameters.
It will also affect available autopilot features.
Boat length
The boat length affects the steering parameters.
• Rang: 5 - 500 (m)
Cruising speed
The cruising speed is used if no speed info is available, and if manual speed is set to Auto.
It is also used by the autopilot system to calculate steering parameters.
• Rang: 2 - 50 (kn)
• Default: 15 (kn)
Transition speed
¼ Note: Only available if the boat type is set to planing.
The transition speed is the speed at which the system automatically changes from LOW to
HIGH work profile.
These two work profiles are automatically defined when you set the boat profile to planing.
The work profiles are set up with high and low speed parameters to control the different
steering characteristics before and after planing.
On power boats it is recommended that you set a value that represents the speed where the
hull begins to plane or the speed where you change from slow to cruising speed.
