Adjusting performance
S1 WheelPilot (without gyro)
S1 WheelPilot systems (without a gyro upgrade) have three different response
levels:
• Response Level 1: AutoSeastate on (Automatic deadband)
The SmartPilot will gradually ignore repetitive boat movements and
only react to true variations in course. This provides the best compro-
mise between power consumption and course keeping accuracy.
• Response Level 2: AutoSeastate off (Minimum deadband)
This setting provides tighter course keeping but will lead to increased
power consumption and drive unit activity.
• Response Level 3: AutoSeastate off + yaw damping
This setting provides the tightest possible course keeping by introducing
counter rudder yaw damping You can adjust the counter rudder setting in
Dealer Calibration (see
SmartPilot Commissioning Guide ).
To make a
temporary
change to the response setting:
1. Display the
RESPONSE
screen by pressing the
1
and
+1
buttons together.
2. Press
1
or
+1
buttons to change the response between levels 1 to 3.
3. Press
disp
or wait for 5 seconds to return to the previous display.
Note:
You will lose these temporary changes to response level whenever the system is
powered off. You can make permanent adjustments in User Calibration (see page 31).
1.5 Sailing functions
Tacking (AutoTack)
CAUTION: Allow time for course changes
When making major course changes, the trim on the boat may
change substantially. Due to this, the SmartPilot may take some
time to settle accurately onto the new course.
The SmartPilot has a built in automatic tack facility (AutoTack) that turns the boat
in the required direction for a tacking maneuver.
When you AutoTack the boat turns through the AutoTack angle (100° default).
You should then trim the helm to mirror the wind angle from the previous tack.
• To AutoTack to port
i. Press the
1
and
10
buttons together. The boat will then AutoTack.
ii. Use the
+1
and
+10
buttons to trim the helm back to the required wind
angle.
