Rudder Limit setting
As part of the Dockside calibration process, the system will
set-up the rudder limits.
• For vessels with a rudder reference transducer — This
procedure establishes the rudder limit. The rudder limit will be
displayed with a message confirming that the rudder limit has
been updated. This value can be changed if required.
• For vessels without a rudder reference transducer — a
default of 30 degrees is displayed, and can be changed as
required.
Hard over time
The hard over time setting can be specified as part of the
Dockside wizard.
The following information only
applies to vessels without a rudder
reference transducer.
• If you already know the hard-over time for your vessel’s
steering system: enter this time during the Dockside wizard
procedure.
• If you do NOT know the hard-over time for your vessel’s
steering system: skip this step during the Dockside wizard
procedure by selecting
SAVE , then proceed to Checking the
rudder drive section in this document to complete the Dockside
wizard procedure. Once the wizard is complete, proceed
to
7.8 Adjusting the hard-over time in this document for
information on how to calculate and adjust the hard-over time.
Checking the rudder drive
As part of the dockside calibration process, the system will
check the drive connection. Once it has completed the check
successfully, a message will appear asking if it is safe for the
system to take the helm.
During this procedure the autopilot will move the rudder. Ensure
it is safe to proceed before pressing OK.
When in dockside calibration mode, with the Motor Check page
displayed:
1. Centre and let go of the rudder.
2. Disengage any rudder drive clutch.
3. Select CONTINUE .
4. Check it is safe to proceed before selecting OK .
For vessels with a rudder reference transducer, the autopilot
will now automatically move the rudder to port and then
starboard.
5. For vessels without a rudder reference transducer, you will
be asked to confirm that the rudder has turned to port by
selecting
YES or NO .
6. Select OK if it is safe to engage the rudder in the opposite
direction.
7. You will be asked to confirm the rudder turned to starboard
by selecting YES or NO .
8. Dockside calibration is now complete, select CONTINUE .
Note: If you confirmed a “NO” response for the rudder
movement to both port and starboard, the wizard will exit. It is
possible that the steering system did not move the rudder in
any direction, and it will be necessary to check the steering
system before completing the Dockside wizard procedure
again.
You can cancel Dockside calibration at any time by pressing
STANDBY .
