2.4 Response Feature
The response feature provides for simple setting of the NAVpilot’s parameter to count-
er the effects of wind, etc. Normally, use the auto response feature (see section 2.4.1).
If you feel that the auto response feature is not working properly, adjust the response
feature manually (see section 2.4.2). This feature is available in the following condi-
tions:
• AUTO, NAV, WIND modes

section 4.1.1.
