Joystick Mode (Manual Type)
Power steer selects the Joystick mode of operation: Proportional or ‘Bang-
Bang’.
Proportional applies rudder in proportion to Joystick movement - the
further the Joystick is held over the greater the applied rudder.
Bang-Bang applies continous rudder drive in the direction of lever move-
ment. To improve control the speed of rudder movement changes with the
angle of the lever. For maximum speed push the lever hardover. If the lever
is returned to the center position the rudder will remain in its current
position.
The settings available are as follows:
Range
