Navigating with autopilot
If an AC12, AC42 or an SG05 autopilot computer is connected to the system, autopilot
functionality will be included in the NSS.
When you start navigation on a system with autopilot functionality, you will be prompted to
set the pilot to navigation mode.
If you choose not to engage the autopilot, the pilot can later on still be set to navigation
mode from the pilot menu.
For more information about autopilot functionality see “Using the autopilot on page 29.
Navigation settings panel
Navigation method
Diff erent methods are available for calculating the distance and bearing between any two
points on a chart.
The great-circle route is the shortest path between two points. However, if you are to travel
along such a route, it would be diffi cult to steer manually as the heading would constantly be
changing (except in the case of due north, south, or along the equator).
Rhumb lines are tracks of constant bearing. It is possible to travel between two locations
using Rhumb line computation, but the distance would usually be greater than if Great circle
is used.

radius.
