10 ST8002 SmartPilot Controller Operating Guide
Off Course warning
The SmartPilot warns you when you have been off course from the locked heading
for longer than 20 seconds. It shows whether the deviation is to port or starboard.
Note:
The default off course angle is set at 20º. You can adjust this angle in Dealer Cali-
bration (see SmartPilot Commissioning Guide).
1. To cancel the off course warning, press standby to return to manual steer-
ing.
2. Check whether your boat is carrying too much sail, or whether the sails are
badly balanced. You can usually significantly improve course keeping by
improving the sail balance.
Note:
The SmartPilot also clears the warning if the heading recovers or if you change
course.
