SOFTWARE INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
WARNING
: the software installation procedure of the system is very delicate and
implies a profound knowledge of its functioning. Thus, we advise you to avoid the
changing of the values supplied with the default if you do not exactly know the
effects.
In addition, we remind you that all parameters are pre-selected and are suitable to
the majority of vessels.
In order to start the installation procedure and to change the setting of default, you
must proceed in the following order:
1. Press simultaneously the keys
STBY
and
SET
for two seconds at least until
‘INSTALL’ is visualized.
2. Release the keys and press only the key
SET
until the required function is
selected.
3. Modify the value by using the arrow keys
and
.
4. When the setting is ended, press newly
STBY
to exit.
List of the functions:
MAGN COMP
Reading of the intensity of the compass signal: it is useful in case the FGX60/3
(pick-up) is installed instead of the fluxgate compass FGX90. It is a reading
and cannot be modified.
F1 RUDDER LIM
Electronic limiting on the rudder actioning: sets the maximum rudder angle that
the autopilot can reach.
F2 F/B SLACK
Slack on the rudder: sets the tolerance (dead-band) on the rudder positioning.
It can be useful to increase it by very fast actionings or by relevant dragging.
F3 F/B 0 POS
Zero position of the feedback: it allows correcting a possible variation of
alignment of zero between the real position of the rudder and the zero position
of the feedback. Even if it is possible to execute with this function, we advise
you to zero mechanically by actioning the feedback (turning all the feedback).
F4 FEEDBACK
Model of the connected feedback: FB30 (FB30 or FB31) – POTn
(potentiometer) – POTr (reverse potentiometer) – OFF (no feedback).
Please note that the ON value can be setted only if the gyronav sensor is
connected and enabled.
