SEA TRIALS
With the installation completed, it is strongly advised that
the following Sea Trials are carried out.
Checks at Ensure that the steering moves freely from lock to lock
the Dockside without undue stiffness and that it can move to its full
travel without the Rudder Feedback arms fouling the
steering.
Return the rudder(s) back to the amidships position.
Switch the autopilot ON, if the steering operates, switch off
at once and re-check the connections. Continue when the
fault has been corrected.
Check that no system faults appear after the self test routine
has been completed.
Check that the autopilot has been configured for the vessel,
e.g. displacement, semi-displacement or planing.
Check that the Rudder Position display indicates the rudder
moving to the left when the helm is turned to Port and to
the right when it is turned to Starboard. If not, reverse the
Rudder Feedback Unit phasing (see the Installation Settings
earlier).
Check that the rudder position indicator displays ‘
PR00
’
or ‘
SR00
’ when the rudder is in the position normally
required to steer the vessel in a straight line. Also check that
it displays ‘
StOP
’, indicating that it has reached the
Rudder Limit, before it reaches the end of rudder
movement (in both directions). If not adjust the Rudder
Limit in the Installation Setting menu.
Switch the autopilot from Standby mode into Autopilot
mode. Very little or no rudder movement should occur. If
the rudder drives continuously to one side, switch off at
once and reverse the motor phasing. If the rudder
continuously ‘hunts’ about amidships, increase the rudder
Response setting.
