What
is
it?
AutoTrim
corrects
for
persistent
course
errors
by
continuously
monitoring
and
learning
the
rudder
offset.
What
does
it
do?
When
the
vessel
has
a
constant
heading
error
due
to
external
forces
such
as
wind
or
trim
the
AutoTrim
function
corrects
for
this
by
dynamically
adjusting
rudder
offset
based
on
the
most
recent
measurements
from
the
rudder.
