Autopilot Setup
If an AC12, AC42, or SG05 autopilot computer is connected to an NSE system, autopilot
control functionality will be available on the NSE.
The NSE can be connected to a full autopilot system including an AP24 or AP28 control
head, or the NSE can be used as the only control head in the autopilot system.
Wiring the autopilot system
The AC12, AC42, or SG05 are connected to the NSE system using the SimNet network.
For more information about how to install and wire the autopilot, refer to the separate
AC12/AC42 Installation manual (doc no 20222568), or SG05 Installation manual (doc no
20223210A).
Verifying the autopilot connection
When an AC12, AC42, or SG05 is connected
to the NSE system, the NSE will automatically
detect the autopilot and an Autopilot menu
item will be included in the Set tings menu.
If no Autopilot item is available in the menu,
establish the connection by running the auto
select process.
The auto select process may also be used if
the list of data sources needs to be updated
when a unit has been physically replaced.
If the AC12/42 later is disconnected the
Autopilot menu item will remain available, but
only a few of the menu items will be available.
Commissioning the autopilot
Before you perform any commissioning of the autopilot, the hardware installation and
electrical connections must be completed as described above and in the separate AC12,
AC42, or SG05 Installation manual.
When the autopilot installation is confirmed, the commissioning procedures must be
performed. Failure in setting up the autopilot correctly may prohibit the autopilot from
functioning properly.
The setup of the autopilot computers (AC12/42/SG05) can be done from the NSE unit
or from the AP24 or AP28 control head, if such is included in the system. The following
sections describe how you configure the autopilot from the NSE unit. If you select to
setup the system from an AP24 or AP28 control head, refer to the AP24 Operator manual
(part no 20222535) or the AP28 Operator manual (part no 20222527).
If you connect the NSE to an already commissioned autopilot system, you only have to
do an automatic source selection as described above before the autopilot is ready to be
used.
