Note: The autopilot must be commissioned prior to first use

and any time after autopilot default settings have been

restored.

Cable steer calibration

Note: The rudder source must be set to rudder feedback to be

able to run this calibration

Start the calibration process by selecting the rudder feedback

calibration option, and follow the onscreen instructions.

Note: When centering the motor during the calibration

process, ensure that the motor is centered visually when the

dialog shows 0 value. If not, center the motor visually before

pressing OK to align the physical position with the dialog value.

When the calibration process is completed, select the rudder test

option to confirm the calibration.

If the calibration does not pass the rudder test:

• confirm that motor is moving

• confirm that the rudder feedback reading moves according to

motor rotation

• check the NAC-1 drive cable

• confirm that the motor can be manually moved smoothly in

each direction

• check for other mechanical issues

• check wiring connections

• repeat the rudder calibration.

Hydraulic system calibration

Virtual rudder feedback (VRF) calibration is used for vessels with

hydraulic steering when no rudder feedback is available.

Note: The rudder source must be set to VRF to be able to run

this calibration.

Start the calibration process by selecting the VRF calibration option,

and follow the onscreen instructions.

Note: When the autopilot attempts to turn the motor during

the calibration process, ensure that the motor movement is

noticeable and that the motor is turning in the correct direction

before selecting Yes on the dialog. When No is selected, the
