WindTrim
In Wind Vane mode the SmartPilot uses WindTrim to eliminate the effects of
turbulence and short term wind variations. This provides smooth and precise
performance with minimal power consumption. You can adjust the wind
response (WindTrim) level in User Calibration (see
page 24
) to control how
quickly the SmartPilot responds to changes in the wind direction. Higher
wind trim settings will result in a pilot that is more responsive to wind
changes.
How do I select Wind Vane mode?
You can select Wind Vane mode from either Standby or Auto mode:
1. Steady the boat onto the required wind angle.
2. Press
w v
to select Wind Vane mode and lock the current wind angle:
•
the display shows the locked heading (e.g.
128°
) and the wind angle
(e.g.
WIND 145P
indicates an wind angle of 145° to port)
•
if the SmartPilot does not enter Wind Vane mode, it is not receiving
wind data - check the instrument and connections
3. In Wind Vane mode, the SmartPilot will then adjust the boat’s heading to
maintain the locked wind angle.
How do I leave Wind Vane mode?
You can leave Wind Vane mode by:
•
pressing
auto
to return to Auto mode
•
pressing
standby
to return to manual control
