Automatic control of steering parameters
The AP16 provides two different sets of steering parameters for
controlling the response of the boat at different speeds while in
automatic modes.
The autopilot selects the LO (response) steering parameters
when engaging an automatic mode from STBY provided there is
no speed input. This is a safety feature. When entering an
automatic mode at low speed, the steering parameters may be
changed to HI automatically by input data from a speed log or a
GPS navigator (SOG), or manually.
The speed at which the autopilot automatically changes from LO
to HI parameters (or opposite) is determined by the "Transition
Speed" set in the Installation Setup Menu (Sea trial). See
diagram below.

Manual Selection of HI/LO Parameters
Manual selection of HI/LO parameters is necessary if there is no
speed input to the autopilot or if you want to override the
automatic control.
