SOFTWARE SET-UP PROCEDURE
3.1
Description of Installation Set-up
The design of the AP50 includes advanced features that have
simplified the installation and set-up of an autopilot. The
principle advantage is that the manual adjustments that needed
to be made on previous models are no longer necessary with the
AP50.
Note !
The Installation Set-up must be performed as part of the
installation of the AP50 system. Failure to correctly set the
values in the Installation Set-up menu may prohibit the AP50
from functioning properly!
The Installation Set-up is grouped into the following functional
categories:
•
Language:
Selects the language used for display
information.
•
Dockside
Settings:
Sets the values for items to be set prior
to sea trials.
•
Interface Set-up:
Sets the identification of navigation
equipment and optional equipment
connected to the AP50 system.
•
Sea-trial Settings:
Determines the automatic calibrations
and the steering parameters and sets the
compass offset.
•
Service:
Used to view system parameters,
perform NMEA tests, and Master reset
system memories.
•
Settings:
Setting or changing steering and
thruster parameters.
Each category is designed to focus on specific functions related
to an installation activity and to enable quick access when
changes need to be made.
