4.2 Description of Installation Settings
Note ! The installation settings must be performed as part of the
installation of the AP16 system. Failure to do so correctly may
prohibit the AP16 from functioning properly!
The Installation menu can only be accessed in STBY mode.
The Installation Settings are grouped into the following
functional categories:
•
Language: Selection of language used for display
information
•
Interface: Setting the format of the clock/data heading
output for radars connected to the Autopilot
Computer.
•
Display units: Setting the units to be displayed for wind
speed, water temperature and depth.
•
Seatrial: Presents settings and automatic calibrations to
be performed during sea trial.
•
Parameters: Permits viewing and changing of basic
steering parameters (See also response control
page 30).
•
Service: System data, SimNet setup, Master reset of
memories.
Each group is designed to focus on specific functions and enable
quick access when changes need to be made.
Some important points regarding the installation settings:
−
When the AP16 is delivered new from the factory AND
ANY TIME AFTER A MASTER RESET OF
MEMORIES HAS BEEN PERFORMED, the installation
settings are all reset to factory preset (default) values. The
automatic interface prompt will appear (see page 55) and
a complete setup has to be made.
−
The values that are selected from within the Installation
Settings Menu, are stored in the memory of the AP16
system. No specific action is required to "SAVE" the
selected values. Once the value is changed, it is stored
until the next time the menu item is selected and changed.
