Display Calibration screens
Display bar selection
This screen allows you to select what information is displayed at the bottom of the
SmartPilot display.
Heading selection
This screen allows you to display any heading as either a magnetic or true value.
During normal SmartPilot operation the screen will indicate MAG for magnetic
headings and TRUE for true headings.
Pop-up pilot time-out (ST7001, ST7002, ST8001 & ST8002
only)
During normal operation, you can set the controller so it has a data page as the
main display (
see SmartPilot Operating Guide
). Whenever there is a change in the
autopilot mode, a screen will ‘pop-up’. After a short period, the display reverts to
the selected data page. The default pop-up time is 5 seconds. You can use this
setting to adjust the pop-up pilot display time-out.
