2 Using the Tiller Pilot
Displaying navigation information pages
If navigation information (e.g. distance to waypoint, cross track error
and bearing to waypoint) is available, you can display it in Auto mode
or Standby mode by pressing either
-1 and +10 or +1 and -10 together
momentarily. The display will then cycle through the navigation
information pages:
You can revert to normal operation by pressing either -1 and +10 or
+1 and -10 together again.
Automatic deadband control (Auto Seastate)
In Auto, WindTrim or Track modes, the tiller pilot is set to
AutoSeastate (automatic deadband control) as a default. This causes
the pilot to gradually ignore repetitive movements of the boat and
respond only to true course variations.
By preventing unnecessary rudder movement, AutoSeastate
provides the best compromise between power consumption and
course keeping accuracy.
If you want to switch off the AutoSeastate feature:
1. From Auto, WindTrim or Track mode, press
-1 and +1 together to
switch from AutoSeastate to Fixed Minimum Deadband.
2. The “
°” sign flashes when Fixed Minimum Deadband is selected.
Minimum deadband provides the tightest course keeping
possible, at the expense of increased power consumption and
drive unit activity.
