CAUTION:
Ensure that your autopilot is fully calibrated and that rudder
alignment checks have been performed. This will ensure your
boat will steer straight when the joystick is centered.
Use the PWR STEER page in dealer calibration to set the operating mode.
Note:
For detailed instructions on how to access the dealer calibration area of your auto-
pilot, refer to the commissioning manual supplied with the pilot.

Proportional power steer applies rudder in proportion to joystick movement
– the further the joystick is held over, the greater the applied rudder.

2 = Bang-bang power steer
Bang-bang power steer applies continuous rudder in the direction of the
lever movement – to improve control, the speed of rudder movement
changes with the angle of the lever. For maximum speed, push the lever
hardover. If you return the lever to the center position, the rudder will
remain in its current position.
