Chapter 3: Adjusting SmartPilot Settings 49
Rudder limit
Use the rudder limit screen to set the limits of the rudder control just inside the
mechanical end stops. This will avoid putting the steering system under
unnecessary load. You should adjust this setting when commissioning the
SmartPilot (see
page 26
).
Rudder gain
Rudder gain is a measure of how much helm the SmartPilot will apply to correct
course errors. The higher the setting the more rudder will be applied.
The default rudder gain is set during the initial seatrial:
S1G, S2G and S3G systems will adjust the rudder gain automatically during
AutoLearn (see
page 31
)
Non-G
systems will require manual adjustment of rudder gain (see
page 35
)
You can make temporary changes to this rudder gain value during normal
operation (see
SmartPilot Operating Guide
).
Counter rudder
Counter rudder is the amount of rudder the SmartPilot applies to try to prevent the
boat from yawing off course. Higher counter rudder settings result in more rudder
being applied.
The default counter rudder gain is set during the initial seatrial:
S1G, S2G and S3G systems will adjust the counter rudder setting automati-
cally during the AutoLearn (see
page 31
)
Non-G systems will require manual adjustment of counter rudder (see
page 36
)
