Rudder Deadband
The rudder deadband function
is adaptive and is continuously
operative. It prevents the
rudder from hunting and the
adaptive function optimizes the
deadband to the speed of the
boat and the pressure on the
rudder.
If the auto-setting does not perform properly due to high inertia
from the wheel or a loose steering gear, it can be adjusted
manually.
Adjust the
Rudder deadband by rotating the course knob. Find
the lowest possible value that will prevent the rudder from
hunting. A wide deadband will cause inaccurate steering. It is
recommended to check rudder stability and accuracy in FU-
mode when the boat is moving to get pressure on the rudder.
Range: AUTO, 0.1° to 4.0° in 0.1° increments.
Default: AUTO.
Proceed to the next menu item by pressing the
STBD button.

when sailing.
Additional setup items also become available in the User setup
and the Quick setup menus.
