Off heading limit 

Sets the limit for the off heading alarm.
When the alarm option is activated an alarm occurs when the actual heading deviates from
the set heading more than the selected limit.

Low speed limit

Sets the limit for the low vessel speed alarm.
An alarm occurs when the vessel’s speed goes below the selected limit.

Nav steering

Nav response

Defines how aggressively the autopilot should steer towards the active route's leg.

Approach angle 

This setting is a limit to prevent approaching the track too steeply. Approaching the track at
shallower angles is permitted depending on the cross track distance (XTD) and nav response
setting.
This setting is used both when you start navigating and whenever the autopilot is working
the boat towards the route.

Course change limit

Defines the limit for automatic course change to next waypoint in a route when the
autopilot is following a route (NAV mode).
If the course change is greater than this set limit, you are prompted to verify that the
upcoming course change is acceptable.

XTD limit

Defines the vessel’s accepted offset distance from the track. If the vessel goes beyond this
limit an alarm will be activated.

Drive select

Defines which drives that shall be used for the selected work profile.
