NP5300 and NP5400
As soon as the operating mode is manually changed over from Track Control to
Heading Control, RoT, 15
/min appears. The rudder limit is set to 10
again.
The following sections 1.4.5.1.1 and 1.4.5.1.2 describe 2 types of maneuvers for
going to the planned track after starting Track Control.
The following section 1.4.5.1.1 describes the GO- TO- WAYPOINT maneuvers
which bring the vessel directly to the TO- WPT, i.e. to the beginning of the track
section be- tween TO- WPT and NEXT- WPT. The FROM- WPT is not required for
this kind of maneuvers and remains undefined.
The section 1.4.5.1.2 describes the RETURN- TO- TRACK maneuvers which bring
the vessel to the track section between FROM- WPT and TO- WPT.
It depends on the user which of these 2 types is used.
