1.5 Automatic steering
AUTO (Compass) mode
When the AUTO key is pressed, the AP24 automatically
selects the current boat heading as the set course and
maintains the rudder angle. This gives a bumpless
transfer at the mode change.

Once the course is changed to a new set course, the boat
will automatically turn to the new heading and maintain
the new course.
Heading capture
When in AUTO or NoDrift mode (page 29) heading
capture allows you to automatically cancel the turn you
are in by an instant press on the AUTO key or the
NoDrift softkey. The autopilot will cancel the turn to
continue on the heading read from the compass the very
moment you pressed the AUTO key or the NoDrift
softkey. This is a useful feature if you are not sure of the
exact turn you have to make to hit e.g. an inlet or a
dock.
