• Significant magnetic interference is present.
Compass lock
Once you are satisfied with the compass accuracy, you can lock the setting
to prevent the system from completing a further automatic linearization in
the future.
This feature is particularly useful for vessels in environments that are exposed
to strong magnetic disturbances on a regular basis (such as offshore wind
farms or very busy rivers, for example). In these situations it may be desirable
to use the Compass lock feature to disable the continuous linearization
process, as the magnetic interference may build a heading error over time.
Note:
The compass lock may be released at any time, to allow the compass
continual monitoring and adaptation to re-commence. This is particularly
useful if planning a long voyage. The earth’s magnetic field will change
significantly from one geographical location to another, and the compass
can continually compensate for the changes, ensuring you maintain
accurate heading data throughout the voyage.
Locking the compass
Follow the steps below to lock the compass linearization.
From the Pilot set-up menu: [Homescreen > Settings > Autopilot > Pilot
set-up] .
1. Select the [Compass Lock] toggle option so that it is enabled (Green)..
The compass linearization is now locked and automatic linearization will no
longer be performed.
8.2 Autopilot control
Your MFD can be integrated with an Evolution autopilot system and act as the
autopilot’s controller. Please refer to the documentation supplied with your
autopilot for details on installing and connecting your autopilot to your MFD.
Autopilot control from your MFD can be enabled and disabled from the
[Autopilot] tab in the [Settings] menu: [Homescreen > Settings > Autopilot >
Pilot control] .
1. [Pilot icon] — With [Autopilot control] enabled, the Pilot icon is displayed
onscreen; selecting the icon displays the Pilot sidebar. When the
Autopilot is engaged the Pilot icon is replaced with the Disengage pilot
icon.
2. [Pilot sidebar] — The Pilot sidebar provides controls and information
relating to your autopilot system. With the Autopilot engaged the Pilot
sidebar’s content is expanded to provide further controls and information.
The Pilot sidebar can be hidden by swiping the sidebar to the left. The
sidebar can be displayed again by swiping from the left of the screen
towards the center of the screen.
Warning: Maintain a permanent watch
Always maintain a permanent watch, this will allow you to
respond to situations as they develop. Failure to maintain a
permanent watch puts yourself, your vessel and others at
serious risk of harm.
