24 ST6002 SmartPilot Controller Operating Guide

Wind selection (SAILBOAT only)

This screen determines whether the boat steers to apparent or true wind in Wind

Vane mode.

WindTrim (SAILBOAT only)

WindTrim controls how quickly the SmartPilot responds to changes in the wind

direction. Higher wind trim settings will result in a system that is more responsive

to wind changes.

Response level

This sets the default SmartPilot response level setting. The response level controls

the relationship between course keeping accuracy and the amount of helm/drive

activity. You can make temporary changes to response during normal operation,

as described in

Chapter 1, SmartPilot Operation

S1G, S2G and S3G systems

Options

WIND APP (Default) SmartPilot steers to apparent wind angle

WIND TRUE SmartPilot steers to true wind angle

Screen Text Options

WIND TRIM Range = 1 to 9

1 to 3 - Least responsive to wind changes (less system

activity)

4 to 6 - Moderate response to wind changes

7 to 9 - Most responsive to wind changes (more system

activity)

Screen Text Options

RESPONSE

Range = 1 to 9

levels 9 to 7 gives the tightest course keeping and great-

est rudder activity (and power consumption). This can lead

to a rough passage in open waters as the SmartPilot may

‘fight’ the sea.

levels 6 to 4 should give good course keeping with crisp,

well controlled turns under normal operating conditions.

levels 3 to 1 minimizes the amount of pilot activity. This

conserves power, but may compromise short-term course-

keeping accuracy.
