2 Basic Operation
Using sail boat features
Automatic tack (AutoTack)
The ST6001+ has a built in automatic tack facility (AutoTack) that
turns the boat through 100° in the required direction. If you have set
the vessel type to
SAIL BOAT, you can adjust the default AutoTack
angle in User or Dealer calibration (see page 83).
to AutoTack to port: press the
-1 and -10 keys together
to AutoTack to starboard: press the
+1 and +10 keys together
CAUTION:
When making major course changes, the trim on the boat may
change substantially. Because of this, the autopilot may take
some time to settle accurately onto the new course.
Preventing accidental gybes
Note: For the gybe inhibit feature to work, the autopilot needs
suitable wind information (see page 23).
The gybe inhibit feature stops the boat from performing an AutoTack
away from the wind this will prevent accidental gybes. On Type
150/150G and 400/400G autopilots, you can turn off this feature if
required:
