6.3 Handling of more than one NautoPilot® Operator Unit in a steering
system (Master - Slave - application)
It is possible to install more than one NautoPilot® Operator Unit in a steering system.
However, only one of the NautoPilot® Operator Units is a master, whilst the others
are designated as slaves.
A slave NautoPilot® Operator Unit can be switched into active mode or inactive mode.
If a slave is active all other NautoPilot® Operator Units in a steering system are
inactive, even the master NautoPilot® Operator Unit (except its calculation task).
OU Display (see also section 6.3.1) is indicated at the inactive NautoPilot®
Operator Units, at the top right corner of the display (above the control mode).

NP5x00 Slave
Only the master NautoPilot® Operator Unit performs (calculates) the control
function of a steering control system. The active slave NautoPilot® Operator Unit
serves for data/ value input and visual monitoring only - all inputs, as well as
configuration values, can be performed.
The lower LED (below the Heading, Course or Track buttons) can only light up
yellow at inactive NautoPilot® Operator Units for steering systems with more
than one NautoPilot® Operator Unit.
An acknowledgement of alarms/status messages is possible at all NautoPilot®
Operator Units (independent of master or slave).
