ALTERNATIVE 3
When autopilot is in AUTO, course change can be made by the S9 by
repeated operations of the lever to one side or the other side. Every
operation will provide one degree course change, to PORT or
STARBOARD dependent of direction of operation.
When the autopilot mode is set to HELMSMAN, the NFU lever will
provide ordinary NFU operation.
Note ! All mode changes must be made on the control unit. As the S9 mode change
function is not activated on this alternative, any NFU lever can be used to
obtain this function.
Special arrangements can be configured by using mode selector and
change-over switch, see “mode selection”.
FOLLOW-UP Steering Levers
A follow-up lever features a dial (scale), graduated in degrees. This
enables the operator to predetermine the required rudder movement
simply by moving the follow-up lever to the required rudder angle.
The rudder will move to and stop at the set angle.
Auto mode is then selected at the AP9 MK3 Control Unit after
switching off the FU switch.
OPERATION
The FU91 FU lever is activated by
pressing the push to take command
(PTTC) button. When in
