2.10 Dodge in AUTO
Dodging is useful in situations where you need to quickly take
control of the helm to steer around an obstruction, and then
resume the previous set heading. Dodging is activated by a quick
double press on the
TURN/DODGE button.
When in DODGE mode the displayed set course is the last one
set prior to activating the dodge function. When DODGE is
displayed, the AP16 is no longer in control of the steering, and
you must either manually steer the boat in STBY mode or take
control using Non Follow Up steering. The AP16 will remain in
the DODGE mode until you exit DODGE by a second press on
the
TURN/DODGE button or select a mode.
