Chapter 3: Adjusting SmartPilot Settings
This chapter explains all of the calibration settings you can adjust on the
SmartPilot. You will have adjusted many of these settings when commissioning
the system, and they should not require further adjustment. Complete the
procedures described in Chapter 2 before adjusting any calibration settings.
3.1 Calibration basics
Calibration groups
The Calibration mode has 4 main calibration groups:
Display Calibration
(DISPLAY CAL)
The items in Display Calibration affect the individual controller. They are stored in
the controller and do not affect any other controllers connected through SeaTalk.
You can adjust the Display Calibration settings as often as necessary – for
example, to add or change information displayed on data pages.
User Calibration
(USER CAL)
The items in User Calibration vary according to the Vessel Type you have selected
in Dealer Calibration.
You will probably need to access User Calibration on a fairly regular basis to adjust
SmartPilot settings in response to changing conditions.Details on User
Calibration can be found in the SmartPilot Controller Operation Manual.
Seatrial Calibration
(SEATRIAL CAL)
The Seatrial Calibration group is specifically designed for use during the initial
seatrial (see page 24 of Chapter 2 for full details).
You should not need to access Seatrial Calibration during normal operation.
Dealer Calibration
(DEALER CAL)
The Dealer Calibration group includes items that have a significant impact on
operation and can affect your boat’s safety.
After you have completed the initial installation and seatrial, you should not
normally need to alter the Dealer Calibration values. The items in Dealer
Calibration vary according to the Vessel Type you have selected.
