8.6 Dockside calibration
The dockside calibration process must be completed
before your SPX autopilot system can be used for
the first time. The Dockside wizard guides you
through the steps required for dockside calibration.
The Dockside wizard contains different steps
depending on whether you have a rudder reference
transducer fitted to your vessel:
The following Dockside
wizard procedures only apply
to vessels
without
a rudder
reference transducer:
• Drive Type selection.
• Rudder Limit setting.
• Rudder Drive check.
The following Dockside
wizard procedures only apply
to vessels
with
a rudder
reference transducer:
• Drive Type selection.
• Align Rudder (rudder
alignment).
• Rudder Limit setting.
• Rudder Drive check.
On older SeaTalk SmartPilot systems the Dockside
wizard is named Dealer Settings. Please refer to
for calibration details.

Checking the rudder alignment (Align
Rudder)

rudder limits for systems using a rudder reference
transducer.
The rudder check forms part of the dockside
calibration process.
The following procedure only
applies to vessels with a
rudder reference transducer.
1. Center the rudder and select
OK
.
2. When prompted, turn the rudder hard to port and

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.
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.
