Safety Instructions
To prevent dangerous situations, check the traffic at sea and the
sea area before and while using any control function with the
Autopilot.
Activated control functions, such as Heading Control, Course
Control or Track Control shall be monitored after their activation.
Waypoint steering mode must not be used on vessels falling
under SOLAS convention.
Correct performance after alterations of heading / course shall
be monitored.
All control and monitor functions / modes shall be checked on a
regular basis.
NautoPilot® 5000 allows to define a rate of turn radius value for
heading / course alterations. Make sure that these values are
appropriate to the vessel’s maneuvering characteristics or
present operating conditions.
For radius-controlled heading / course alterations a valid speed
input is mandatory. Use rate of turn controlled heading / course
alterations in case of invalid speed data.
NautoPilot® 5000 allows to define a rudder limit value for
heading / course alterations. Make sure that these values are
appropriate to the vessel’s maneuvering characteristics or
present operating conditions.
Wrong settings for radius, rate of turn, rudder and counter rudder
could cause high heeling angles.
Use of magnetic compass as a heading for Track Control mode
is not permitted.
Use a soft pen (or fingertip) to operate the touch display. Do not
use sharp or scratching items.
The buttons at the front side must never be operated by a
pointed object (ball point pen, pencil, etc.)
For cleaning the buttons and the display, a commercial, acid free
agent is to be used.
Adjustment, configuration and operation are strongly influenced
by the steering system and its application / performance.
Therefore, it is absolutely obligatory that configuration,
adjustment and operation must be performed by well trained,
experienced personnel only.
