OPERATION
When operating an autopilot system of multiple control units and
steering levers, control is accessible from every control station
connected to the system. One station (autopilot control unit,
FU50 Follow Up lever or QS50) is "active" and provides the
user with access to the respective mode functions. All remaining
units are "inactive" and have no effect on course changes.
