(6) Warning regarding configuration (See page 2-1.)
CAUTION
●
When this system is assembled in the automatic steering system stand (autopilot
built-in), the master compass and each unit of the control unit are assembled in the
steering stand and the sensitive element is separately packed.
(7) Warning regarding start (See page 3-9.)
CAUTION
●
Start this system after turned the automatic steering system to other mode than "AUTO".
(8) Warning regarding setting of latitude input system (See page 3-11.)
CAUTION
●
Change of the latitude input system or a large change of latitude value may cause a
large change of the true heading.
During the automatic steering, once turn the steering mode of the automatic steering
system to "MANUAL" to prevent a large course changing, and after confirming
surrounding safety of own ship, turn to "AUTO" steering again.
(9) Warning regarding setting of latitude input system (See page 3-11.)
CAUTION
●
When an alert related to GNSS (alert code "c" or "d") is generated and the true heading
of the gyrocompass has not been determined, once turn the steering mode to
"MANUAL" or "Non Follow Up", then determine the true heading because erroneous
heading information (repeater signal and serial signal) is possible to be outputted to the
outside.
Refer to
“3.4.5 (2) Countermeasures when GNSS communication abnormality is
generated" in Chapter 3 Operating Method, for determination method of the true
heading.
(10) Warning regarding setting of latitude input system (See page 3-11.)
CAUTION
●
When "GYRO" is selected for the latitude input system, latitude is automatically updated
by the ship's speed and the gyrocompass true heading. (When the ship's speed input
system is "MANUAL", it is not updated automatically.) During navigation, confirm once
in 2 hours that the ship's actual latitude coincides with the indicated latitude.
