4 CONFIGURATION AND SETUP

4.1

First time turn on

Before attempting to turn on the AP25 and perform an
Installation Setup, the hardware installation and electrical
connections must be completed in accordance with the
installation instructions.
The design of the AP25 includes advanced features that have
simplified the installation and setup of an autopilot.

Note !

If the autopilot is going to use Virtual feedback (page 67) you
must first go to page 109.

This is the start-up screen that is
presented the first time you turn on
your autopilot by pressing the
STBY/PWR button.

Notes !

1. You can postpone the automatic interface by going directly to

the Installation/Dockside setup. Any time the STBY button is
pressed the interface prompt will reappear until the
automatic interface has been performed.

2. Be aware that you will have no compass reading before the

automatic interface is completed.

Continue by pressing the STBD (START) button to start the
automatic interface.

The autopilot will search for connected
sources, and as the sources are detected
a black square appears on the screen.
“SEARCHING” is flashing as long as
the autopilot is searching for data.
When the automatic interface setup is
finished, “FINISHED PRESS

→” is

displayed. Press the STBD button to
accept.
