The Adjust rudder angle adjustment is part of the Set rate of
turn setting when analog rudders are used for steering.
The setting determines both the Rate of turn and the Turn gain
command when turning. It is used at course changes in
automatic steering modes. It is essential that this setting is
carried out.
At cruising speed, make a constant turn by turning the course
knob. When you have an acceptable turn and the rate of turn
reading is stable, press the (STBD) button to select Set rate
of turn. Rotate the course knob clockwise to confirm the setting.
Verify that the rate value and ‘Confirmed’ is displayed.
Proceed to the next function by pressing the (STBD) button.
