Selecting Wind Vane mode
You can select Wind Vane mode from either Standby or Auto mode:
1. Steady the boat onto the required wind angle.
2. Press
standby
and
auto
together to select Wind Vane mode and
lock the current wind angle:
•
the display shows the locked heading (e.g.
128°
) and the wind
angle (e.g.
WIND 145P
indicates an wind angle of 145° to port)
• if the autopilot does not enter Wind Vane mode, it is not
receiving wind data - check the instrument and connections
The autopilot will then adjust the boat’s heading to maintain the
locked wind angle.
Exiting Wind Vane mode
You can exit Wind Vane mode by:
• pressing
auto
to return to Auto mode
• pressing
standby
to steer manually in Standby mode
Adjusting the locked wind angle
You can adjust the locked wind angle by using the
-1
,
+1
,
-10
and
+10
keys to change course. For example, to bear away by 10° when the
boat is on a starboard tack:
• press
-10
to turn the boat 10° to port – the locked wind angle and
locked heading will both change by 10°
• the autopilot will then adjust the locked heading as required to
maintain the new wind angle
Note: Because turning the boat affects the relationship between the
true and apparent wind angles, you should only use this method to
make minor adjustments to the wind angle. For major changes,
return to Standby mode, steer onto the new heading, then reselect
Wind Vane mode.
