TWS response (True Wind Speed)
True Wind Speed response is used to compensate for long term changes in wind speed. If the
average wind speed increases and stays high, the boat will bear away accordingly, and remain
low to the wind until the wind decreases.
Response rate
Set the rate of TWS response 1 to 10. 1 = slowest response, 10 = quickest response.
Tack time
Controls the rate of turn (tack time) when performing a tack in wind mode.
Range Change per step Default Units
2 - 50 1 12 Second
Tack angle
Controls the angle that the boat will tack to between 50º - 150º
¼ Note:
Only works in Auto mode.
Range Change per step Default Units
0 - 180º 1 100º Degrees
Heel compensation
Heel compensation provides protection against roll induced broaching in heavy seas or high
gust conditions, by applying the correct amount of rudder compensation before adverse
events become dangerous.
Response rate
Set the rate of heel compensation 1 to 10. 1 = slowest response, 10 = quickest response.
