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.
