Rudder Deadband
R D B - - 0 3
Some
steering
systems
have
slack
in
them
due
to
wear
or
system
design
which
gives
a
few
uncontrolled
degrees
of
rudder
movement.
To
stop
the
autopilot
trying
to
correct
these
small
movements,
which
it
can
never
successfully
do,
the
rudder
deadband
setting
allows
a
small
rudder
displacement
from
the
required
position
without
the
autopilot
trying
to
correct
the
error.
Set
this
to
the
minimum
value
that
avoids
hunting
of
the
rudder.
The
range
is
from
00,
(0º)
to
20
,(2º).
The
Pilot
A,
B
&
C values will always be the same. If you change one it will
change the other.
Rudder Limit
This
sets
the
maximum
rudder
movement,
either
side
of
amidships,
obtainable
under
autopilot
control.
The
range
is
RLIM--07
from
01
(=3º)
to
10
(=30º).
Set
the
limit
so
that
the
rudder
does
not
quite
touch
its
end
stops.
The
setting
can
be
set
at
different
levels
for
each
choice
of
Pilot
A,
B
or
C.
Max Turn Rate
This
sets
the
maximum
rate
of
turn
that
is
allowed
when
under
autopilot
control.
When set to 0 (off) the rate of turn is
not limited and small radius turns are allowed.
T U R N - - 2 0
The Range is from 0 (off), then 1 (large radius) to 20 (small
radius).
The Pilot A, B and C values will always be the same. If you
change one it will change the other.
Power Steer
This
adjusts
the
sensitivity
of
the
steering
when
it
is
controlled
Gain
by
a
remote
device
such
as
a
930
717
or
930
729
Proportional
Control.
The
range
is
from
01
(least
sensitive)
to
P S G - - 0 7
10
(most
sensitive).
The
Pilot
A,
B
and
C
values
will
always
be
the
same.
If
you
change
one
it
will
change
the
other.
