Smartpilot Controller Operating Guide

SmartPilot Functions 

The functions provided with your SmartPilot system depend on whether the 
SmartPilot computer contains an internal GyroPlus yaw sensor

            :

Extended systems

You can connect the SmartPilot controller to other Raymarine SeaTalk 
equipment so it can send and receive SeaTalk data: 

it can use waypoint information from a SeaTalk navigation instrument to 
provide track control

it can use boat speed from a SeaTalk speed instrument to optimize track-
keeping performance

it can use wind information from a SeaTalk wind instrument for Wind 
Vane steering 

You can also use the SmartPilot with any navigator or wind instrument that 
transmits National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA) 0183 data.

The SmartPilot control unit can display SeaTalk and NMEA instrument data 
in a user-defined selection of data pages.

For further information on other connections to your system see 

SmartPilot 

Commissioning Guide

S1G, S2G and S3G systems
(with GyroPlus)

Non-G systems
(without GyroPlus)

Internal GyroPlus yaw sensor provides 
enhanced course keeping using AST 
(Advanced Steering Technology)

Full basic functionality: uses Raymarine 
steering algorithm without AST

Steering to true and apparent wind in 
Wind Vane mode

Steering to true and apparent wind in 
Wind Vane mode

Equipped with AutoLearn, Raymarine’s 
self-learning calibration system
