2. STEERING MODES
This chapter describes the steering modes and functions of the NAVpilot.
Note: For boats with external switches connected, the switch acts as a “go to standby”
switch.
Notices for switching steering modes
When switching the steering modes while the heading sensor PG-500 or PG-700 is
still initializing, keeping in mind the following points:
• The message "INITIALIZING HEADING SENSOR. THIS TAKES TWO MINUTES,
PLEASE WAIT." may appear when switching steering modes. In this case, wait ap-
prox. two minutes to initialize the heading sensor, then switch steering modes
again.
• When the heading sensor is restarted because of power supply interruption, etc.
while the autopilot controls the rudder, the message indicated above appears and
autopilot stops the rudder control. If this happens, switch to STBY mode and ma-
neuver the boat manually.
2.1 Standby (STBY) Mode
After turning on the power, the equipment goes to the standby (STBY) mode. This is
a manual steering mode. When sailing into or out of a harbor, steer the boat in the
STBY mode by using the steering wheel (helm) of your boat.
While standby mode is active, the indication "STBY" appears on the screen at the fol-
lowing locations:
• Where standby mode is set to show the compass or highway display: Center of the
screen.
• Where standby mode is set to show the digital display: Top-left of the screen.
If the compass is displayed, your heading is shown as a gray arrow on the compass
and the compass spins to keep the arrow pointing to the top of the screen.
Note: Gesture Controller GC-001 is usable while the NAVpilot-300 is in standby. See
chapter 5 for details.
