Autopilot modes
The autopilot has several steering modes. The number of modes
and features within the mode depend on the autopilot computer,
the boat type and available inputs, as explained in the description of
the following steering modes.
Standby mode
Standby (STBY) mode is used when you steer the boat at the helm.
Switch the autopilot to STBY mode from any operation by selecting
the
STBY
mode button in the autopilot pop-up or using a physical
standby key.
Non-Follow Up (NFU, Power steering)
In NFU mode you use the port and starboard arrow buttons in the
autopilot pop-up to control the rudder. The rudder will move as
long as the button is pressed.
• Activate NFU mode by selecting the port or starboard arrow
button in the pop-up when the autopilot is in STBY or FU mode.
You return to STBY mode by selecting the STBY mode button in the
autopilot pop-up or using a physical standby key.
Follow-up steering (FU)
Ú
Note:
FU mode is only available if you have a remote controller
included in the system. The MFD unit does not have a rotary
knob.
In FU mode you use the rotary knob to control the rudder angle.
Press the rotary knob, then turn the knob to set the rudder angle.
The rudder moves to the commanded angle and then stop.
