Note: If a man overboard (MOB) message is received by the autopilot,
the BTW and DTW pages will display the bearing and distance to the
MOB location, so it is good practice to retain these pages for display.
4.2 Dealer setup: Type 100/300 Course Computer
This section applies if you have installed the ST6000 Plus as the control
unit for a Type 100/300 Course Computer. If you are using the ST6000
Plus as a repeater for another autopilot system, refer to the Dealer Setup
instructions in the handbook for the main control unit.
Dealer Setup is used to customise the autopilot to suit your boat.
However, once the Pilot Type is set, the factory defaults will provide
safe performance for initial sea trials, and fine tuning is not normally
required. The flow chart below shows you how to enter Dealer Setup,
scroll through the setup displays, adjust the values and exit.

The following pages list the default calibration settings for sailing/
power displacement and planing power vessels. Once you have set the
Pilot Type, these will provide good performance for initial sea trials
and can be fine tuned later to optimise performance.
After initial calibration has been carried out, further adjustment can be
made at any time.
