ith the system in STANDBY, steer the vessel to the desired heading

and press PILOT. The autopilot will now lock onto that heading and
maintain it. The position of the rudder when the PILOT key was
pressed is stored in memory as the effective helm centre.

Autipilot Display Screens

There are two display options in PILOT mode. The left-hand display is
Mode A. It shows the Reference Course in large digits and the rudder
angle as a bar display. Mode B shows the current heading in large digits
and the Reference Course below it. The preferred mode may be
selected via the PILOT DISPLAY option in the menu.

To adjust the current reference course, press either the left or right
arrow key. A single press changes the course by 1 degree. Holding a
key down changes the course continuously in 10 degree steps.

Note. In the auto navigate mode the reference will not change,
since it is controlled by the GPS system.
