Auto and NoDrift mode
When you select AUTO/NoDrift mode, the system will continue on
the current heading/course the very moment you selected the mode.
Auto mode NoDrift mode
Changing set heading/set course
Use the stick to change set heading in AUTO mode and the set
course in NoDrift mode. The value will change 1° each time the
stick is pressed to left or right. If you keep the stick pressed, the
value automatically changes at a rate of 5° per second. Each beep
indicates a 1° heading/course change.
Heading capture
When in AUTO or NoDrift mode, the heading capture feature
allows you to automatically cancel the turn you are in by an instant
upward press on the stick. The autopilot will cancel the turn to
continue on the heading read from the compass the very moment
you pressed the stick.
Nav mode
If you request command and the system is in NAV mode, you will
get immediate command from QS80.
If you initiate NAV from any other mode, the required heading
change must be confirmed before NAV mode is accepted.
If not accepted, the system will remain in current mode.
Wind mode
¼ Note: Prior to entering Wind mode the autopilot system should be
operating in AUTO, with valid input from the wind transducer.
Changing set relative wind angle
Use the stick to change the set relative wind angle. The value will
change 1° each time the stick is pressed to left or right. If you keep
the stick pressed, the value automatically changes at a rate of 5° per
second. Each beep indicates a 1° heading/course change.
