10 Using the autopilot
If an AC12 or AC42 autopilot computer is connected to the NSE system, autopilot
functionality will appear in the NSE page system.
The Autopilot feature is designed to maintain an accurate course in various sea
conditions with minimal helm movements. As the autopilot steers so accurately, it will
save fuel and get you to your destination faster, especially when navigating to a waypoint
or following a route.
Autopilot indication on NSE panels
The autopilot pop up
You can only operate the autopilot when the pop up is
active.
You use different key presses to activate the pop-up;
- a short press on the STBY/AUTO key activates STBY
mode and the pop-up
- a long press on the STBY/AUTO key activates the
pop-up in current mode.
You remove the pop-up from a page by pressing the X key.
The autopilot popup shows active mode, heading, rudder and various steering
information depending on active autopilot mode.
The pop-up has a fixed position on the page, and it can be shown on all pages except
when an Autopilot panel is active.
Autopilot mode indication in top of the page
Autopilot information is by default shown in top of the pages when
the autopilot is engaged.
You can select to turn this information off.
Compass symbol on the chart panel
You can select to show a compass symbol around you boat on the
chart panel. The compass symbol will be removed when the cursor
is active on the panel.
Safe operation with the autopilot
An autopilot is a useful navigational aid, but DOES NOT under any circumstanc-
es replace a human navigator.
Switching from automatic mode to manual operation
You can switch the autopilot to STBY mode from any automatic operation by a short
press on the STBY/AUTO key.
