Control Modes
In this section, the operational modes are described. Although you may select any window to display information,
including the Parameter Window in which you can change data, each operational mode is characterized by a particular set
of parameters which must by carefully checked before you start operation is this mode.
You can select different control modes for the vessel’s heading and position. Use the HDG softkey group to select
a control mode for the heading, and the POS softkey group to select a control mode for the position. Having selected
the control modes for both the heading and position, you activate the operational mode of

associated parameters must be set to the required values before you start operation in this mode. You can also activate the
Remote COR and AWC functions while operating in a particular control mode.

General
The color of a softkey from the HDG softkey group or the POS softkey group informs you about the operations you
can perform.
Case 1: softkey color — grey
The softkey is not activated. For instance, the Operator Station is switched on, however, the control has not been
transferred to the station.
Case 2: softkey color — dark green
The softkey is activated, however the corresponding control mode is not activated. You can select this mode by
pressing the softkey. The softkey starts blinking. If you press the softkey once again, it stops blinking. If the softkey is
blinking but you are doing nothing, the softkey stops blinking after a few seconds. If you press the softkey while it is
blinking, that is your confirmation. The softkey stops blinking and becomes light green, and the corresponding control
mode is selected.
A number of buttons have been programmed so that at the moment of pressing, a bar is displayed on the screen where
you must enter the value of a parameter, such as heading or position setpoint. A default value is always displayed. You
can confirm the delault value by pressing the OK softkey, or input a new value and then press the OK softkey. In both the
cases, the softkey becomes stops blinking and becomes light green, and the corresponding control mode is activated. You
can also press the Cancel softkey to cancel.
Case 3: softkey color — light green
If a softkey has been programmed so that a bar appears on the screen when you press the softkey, this softkey is
activated. In that case you press the softkey just in order to set a new value of the parameters, such as heading or position
setpoint. Other softkeys are deactivated.
Therefore, you cannot deactivate a control mode by merely pressing the corresponding softkey. You can do that only
by selecting another control mode.
Case 4: softkey color — dark red
The softkey is not activated. The dark red color informs you that the corresponding control mode cannot be activated.
For instance, the Auto Heading control mode cannot be activated unless at least one heading reference sensor is in opera-
