WR20 Remote Commander

Note Pressing the CANCEL SoftKey returns you to the Auto Compass.
6.5.2 TACK (Sailboat)
Press the TACK SoftKey to initialise a Tack.
Warning
Gybing is not recommended when in Auto Compass
mode as the Autopilot has no reference to the point
at which the wind changes from one tack to the other.
The display now shows “Tack” flashing and “W Press X”
indicating an input is required, Port or Starboard (Fig. 6.8).
Pressing either the
W or X Nav key will initiate a course change,
and the boat will start to turn in the selected direction.
The amount of turn is dictated by the Autopilot Course computer
and not the WR20 Handset.
Note If no directional input is given within 5 seconds, the display will
return to Auto Compass Mode display.
