ADVANCED AUTO mode
The AUTO mode keeps a set course, but your boat’s course can change by the effects
of tide and wind. To adjust for the effects of tide and wind, use the ADVANCED AUTO
mode. The NAVpilot calculates your course according to your current position and
heading, then sets a virtual "waypoint" in its memory to navigate towards. If either tide
or wind begins to push you off course, the NAVpilot corrects your heading accordingly.
Your NAVpilot must be connected to a GPS navigator which outputs position data
(Latitude and Longitude).
To get the Advanced AUTO mode, follow the procedure below.
1. With AUTO mode active, open the menu.
2. Select [Advanced AUTO] to show the advanced auto options window.
3. Select [ON].
Select [OFF] to deactivate Advanced AUTO mode.
When Advanced AUTO mode is activated, the mode indication at the
top-left of the screen changes as shown in the figure to the right.
Note:
If there is no position data input to the NAVpilot-300 and you attempt to
change the steering mode, an error message appears and an sound alert is re-
leased. Press any key to silence the alert, then check data input to the system.
4. Close the menu.
Note:
How strictly the ADVANCED AUTO mode keeps the course depends on the
[NAV Mode] setting in the [Auto Pilot Option] menu.
[Economy] keeps the course within 0.03 NM and [Precision] keeps the course within
0.01 NM.
