Simrad AP25 Autopilot
52 20221495F
The ‘Nav/Wind’ parameter can be set in the User Setup or in the
Quick setup. Quick setup is activated after by quick double press
on the NAV WIND button.
‘WIND Apparent’ is selected when you only want to steer to
apparent wind. Apparent wind steering is preferred when you
want to achieve maximum boat speed. The autopilot will try to
maintain a constant apparent wind angle to get maximum thrust
from a given trim of the sails.
‘WIND True’ is selected when you only want to steer to true
wind. When sailing in closed waters, the apparent wind angle
may change temporarily due to wind gusts. It may then be
preferred to sail to the true wind.
Thruster
(only available if a thruster is connected as displayed by the
thruster icon).
By this parameter the thruster is turned on and off. When the
thruster is turned on, both thruster and rudder are used for
steering. If the boat speed exceeds 6 knots, the thruster steering
is automatically disabled.
Reset trip
The trip log is reset by rotating the course knob.
User setup 2
This is a second set of user settings that normally
not need to be changed during day to day use. To
activate User setup 2, turn the course knob
clockwise.
Source Select
Provides you with automatic or manual selection of interfaced
data sources for heading (Compass), Navigation, Position, Wind
Angle, Calculated Wind, Water speed, Water temperature,
Distance log and Depth.
Wind-C (calculated) is a common term for true wind and wind
direction.
