FXC110 Fluxgate Compass
When the autopilot is in STANDBY mode, the large display shows the reading of the electronic
compass. Verify that there is no interference and the value indicated by the main compass of the
vessel is almost the same.
In case of a significant difference, try to change the position of the compass (if interfered) or turn
it on its axle until the difference is cancelled.
Automatic Compensation of the FXC110 Fluxgate Compass
The compass placing is always a challenge because of the magnetic interferences you may find
aboard.
This autopilot allows the automatic compensation without the help of a technician. In fact, you
only need to go out at calm sea with the vessel avoiding crowded areas and to carry out the
following operations:
Switch on the autopilot in STANDBY mode and make the vessel turning slowly on circle. In order
to obtain a good compensation, the maximum angular speed should not exceed 4 degrees per
second (corresponding to a complete revolution taking 1.5 minutes at least).
Enter the INSTALLATION mode and press AUTO/TRACK key for at least 2 seconds and wait until
the display visualizes “COMPASS AUTOMATIC COMPENSATION - WAIT.” At this stage, release the
AUTO/TRACK key. Wait until the vessel has carried out a complete revolution checking always
that the angular speed is steady and under the maximum limit. If the vessel, during this turn
should rock significantly (for instance a big wave, the passage of another vessel), repeat again the
procedure.
Keep on turning in circle until the autopilot will display the maximum amount of the interference
and the result of the compensation: “SUCCESS” if succeeded, “FAILED” if failed.
At this stage, the procedure is completed and you only need to press the STANDBY key in order
to return to the normal functioning.
If the AutoCompensation failed, it means that the chosen location for the installation of the
compass is too interfered and therefore the location should be changed.
The AutoCompensation procedure can be interrupted in any moment by pressing STANDBY key
or by removing the power supply to the autopilot.
