4 CONFIGURATION AND SETUP
4.1 First time turn on
Before attempting to turn on the autopilot and perform an
Installation Setup, the hardware installation and electrical
connections must be completed in accordance with the
installation instructions.
The design of the autopilot includes advanced features that have
simplified the installation and setup of an autopilot.
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, “Done press
→” is displayed. Press the STBD button to
accept. The display will read “SETUP
REQUIRED”.
Continue with the installation setup according to
the next chapters.
If you already have completed the installation
settings, the autopilot will enter STBY mode.
