Smartpilot Controller Operating Guide
How do I adjust the locked wind angle
You can adjust the locked wind angle by using the
rotary control
to change
course. For example, to bear away when the boat is on a starboard tack:
•
turn the
rotary control anti-clockwise
– the locked wind angle and
locked heading will both change
•
the autopilot will then adjust the locked heading as required to maintain
the new wind angle
Note:
Because turning the boat affects the relationship between the true and
apparent wind angles, you should only use this method to make
minor
ad-
justments to the wind angle. For major changes, return to Standby mode,
steer onto the new heading, then reselect Wind Vane mode.
How do I dodge an obstacle in Wind Vane mode?
In Wind Vane mode you still have full control from the keypad. You can
make a dodge maneuver by using the
rotary control
to select the desired
course change.
After you have avoided the hazard, you can cancel the dodge course change
by making an equal course change in the opposite direction.
What is a Wind Shift warning?
If the autopilot detects a wind shift of more than 15° it will sound the wind
shift warning and display the
WIND SHIFT
message:
•
To cancel the warning, and retain the existing wind angle and new head-
ing, press
standby
and
auto
together.
•
Alternatively, to cancel the warning and return to the previous heading:
•
adjust the locked wind angle using the
rotary control
.
•
press
standby
to return to hand steering, steer onto the required
heading, and press
standby
and
auto
together to return to Wind
Vane mode with the new wind angle
