The setup of the autopilot computer is divided in three main steps:
• Installation settings
- Including dockside and seatrial commissioning. See "Dockside
setup" on page 10 and "Sea trial" on page 16
• User adjustment of autopilot settings
- Manual fine-tuning for various operational conditions and user
preferences. See "User settings" on page 23
Ú
Note: The Installation settings can only be accessed when the
autopilot is in Standby mode. Some systems require a
dedicated physical standby key to perform installation
procedures. This key can be a key on the autopilot controller, on
an autopilot remote controller, or it can be a separate standby
key.
Warning: When the autopilot is delivered from
factory and any time after an autopilot reset has been
performed, the installation settings are all reset to
factory preset (default) values. A notification will be
displayed, and a complete setup has to be made.
Failure to do so correctly may prohibit the autopilot
from functioning properly!
