ComNav Admiral P3 Installation & Operation Appendices
Document PN 29010075 V3.1 - 142 -
A number of the various data values used by the autopilot can be received in one or more
different sentences (for example, Speed can be received in VTG, VHW, VBW, RMA or RMC).
If a particular data value is received in more than one sentence, then the value in the
highest-priority sentence – per the table below –will be the one used by the autopilot.
Note: the Heading value used by the Admiral P3 may be in Degrees Magnetic or
True, depending on which sentences are received (assuming all sentences have
valid data):
If all of HDM, HDT & HDG are being received, or just HDT & HDG, or just
HDM & HDG, then the autopilot will use Magnetic Heading (indicated on
the display by an ‘M’ beside the Heading value – see page 99), and will
use the data value in the HDG sentence.
If only HDM & HDT are received, or just HDT, then the autopilot will use
True Heading (indicated by a ‘T’), from the HDT sentence.
If only HDM is received, then the autopilot will use Magnetic Heading
(indicated by an ‘M’), from that sentence.
