How to Change Settings Using The Table of Setup Codes
1. Autopilot must be in heading hold [Auto],[Standby], or [ GPS Track] mode before selection
process can start. ( [Auto] LED solid on or [STBY] LED on solid or [GPS Track] LED solid
on.)
2. Press and release
the [Setup] Button. The [Setup] LED will illuminate to indicate the
system is ready to take setup commands (button pushes).
3. Select the Setup Function you want to use by pressing and releasing the buttons labeled 1
through 9 until the appropriate LED’s are lit. (See the Table of Setup Codes and values changes
on the following pages)
4. Increase an adjustable parameter one step by each press of the [UP Arrow] button. When
the parameter is adjusted to its maximum value, the [Up Arrow] LED will light. The parameter
is adjusted and is in use by the autopilot immediately.
5. Decrease an adjustable parameter one step by each press of the [Down Arrow] button.
When the parameter is adjusted to its minimum value, the [Down Arrow] LED will light. The
parameter is adjusted and is in use by the autopilot immediately.
6. You can stay in [Setup] and adjust more than one parameter.
7. Compass Calibration, and autotune are setup conditions that take the system over. You
can get out of compass calibration by turning the power off and can back out of autotune by
pressing any button on the remote. Setting compass North will cause the autopilot to turn off
after the compass realigns. The button sequences for their operation are given in the table of
Setup Codes on the following pages.
8. To view the operating value of an adjustable parameter, enter its code per the Table of Setup
Codes, then press and hold the [Select Load] GPS button. The LED on the [Up Arrow] button
will blink the number of tens the parameter is set to and the LED on the [Down Arrow] button
will blink the number of ones the parameter is set to. For example, if the parameter is set to
a current value of 15, the [Up Arrow] LED will blink once and the [Down Arrow] LED will
blink 5 times to indicate the parameter is set to 1 (blink) X 10 + 5 (blinks) X 1. Of course,
when a parameter is adjusted to its minimum or maximum value, the appropriate LED stays on
solid per steps 4. and 5. above. Note: The number of blinks, like 15 in the example, tells you
how many steps up from the minimum setting.
9. For temporary use of the adjusted parameters: Press and release the [Setup] button to exit
the setup mode.
10. To make the selected Functions into startup defaults
(save the changes into permanent
memory)
: Press and release
the [Setup] button (the [Setup] LED should be lit), and then
press and hold
the [Select Load] button. While holding down the [Select Load] button,
press and release the [Deckmount] On/Off button quickly, then release the GPS [Select
Load] button.
