Simrad AP25 Autopilot
108 20221495F
A turn performed without shifting wind side, will also be made
at a reduced turn rate. Shifting wind side when gybing, however,
is an instant action from the autopilot and there is no limitation
of the turn rate when making a gybe.
Range: 2 – 50 seconds
Default: 12s
Wind shift limit (RACING)
The monitored wind shift in
WIND-mode is the wind shift
angle measured from the last time
the wind angle was set on the
autopilot. If this wind shift
exceeds the ‘Wind shift limit’, a
wind shift alarm will be activated.
The wind shift monitoring can be turned off by setting the ‘Wind
shift limit’ to ‘OFF’.
Note ! A wind shift reading is also presented in the ‘Wind shift’-display.
This is the change of wind direction measured from the last time
the autopilot mode was changed, e.g. STANDBY to AUTO,
AUTO to WIND. This wind shift reading is for information only,
and not to activate the wind shift alarm.
Range: OFF, 2 – 90°
Default: 30°
