VesselView for three seconds unless calibrated otherwise.

The following information shows the location and explains the function of the Axius track
pad lights and buttons.
HEADING ADJUSTMENT AND OVERRIDE
When Auto Heading is engaged, the steering wheel feels locked into a detent .
Approximately 3.4–4.5 kg (8–10 lb.) of force are required to overcome this detent. Manually
overcoming the steering wheel's detent force automatically puts Axius CAN into standby
mode.
1. When Auto Heading is engaged the "TURN" buttons provide a 10° course correction
for each press to the port or starboard.
2. The joystick provides a 1° course correction for each press to the port or starboard.
STANDBY
• In standby mode, the display shows a digital compass value and the angle of the drives
when engaged.
• The compass value is the actual current heading from the Axius CAN.
• On the right side of the screen, an icon labeled "OFF" indicates that the Axius track
pad is not engaged.
