F5 HYDR UNIT
Model of electrohydraulic unit installed: SOL (with solenoids) – REV
(reversing). REV can be equal to 1, 2 and 3 respectively with correct units, fast
units and very fast units.
F6 ENERG SAVE
It activates or deactivates the energy saving on the control of the
electrohydraulic unit: it avoids the keeping of the motor running when it is not
necessary. It is particularly useful in small sailing vessels. ON activates it, OFF
deactivates it.
F7 RUDDER ALR

the rudder actioning (signaled with ‘NO RUDDER ALARM’): ON activates it,
OFF deactivates it.

electronic compass (FGX60/3 or FGX90) of a fixed quantity avoiding the
physical turning of it.

qualified technicians).
F12 DERIV TC
Time constant of the main derivation control: avoid changing it (only for
qualified technicians).
