Turn power on by pressing and releasing the Deckmount switch. Turn the power off by
pressing and holding the switch down until the Deckmount switch light has extinguished
(about four seconds).
Power on is indicated by illumination of the Deckmount switch button and the STBY LED
on the Hand Held.
Both the Deckmount switch light and remote STBY LED will blink for about 30 seconds after turning power
on. During this 30-second time, the pilot computers are running self-test and starting up the compass and
gyroscope. No autopiloting operations are available during this start up period. After the startup period the
STBY LED will stay illuminated, without blinking, as long as the system remains in standby mode.
The deckmount switch can also be used to switch the unit from standby to autopilot.
The Auto/Stby button on the handheld engages and disengages autopilot
steering. The Deckmount button performs the same function after the pilot
is powered up.
When the button is pushed to go into Auto mode, the pilot captures the compass heading and subsequent
moves the rudder to hold that heading. The LED next to Auto will illuminate when The autopilot is
engaged. You should be steering your boat on a constant heading at the time you Press the Auto/Stby
button.
If you program the Bent Right Arrow and Bent Left Arrow buttons for
Remote Steer, when one of these buttons is pushed, the rudder is directly
controlled by these pushbuttons until a Straight Right Arrow or Straight
Left Arrow button is pushed to reengage the pilot or the system is returned standby.
(In remote steer, (autopilot0 heading hold is not engaged and will not lock on to a new heading until one
of the straight arrows are pressed to take it out of remote steer.)
