Adjust the rudder damping

Note: You only need to adjust the rudder damping value if the
autopilot ‘hunts’ when trying to position the rudder. Increasing the
rudder damping value reduces hunting.

To adjust the rudder damping:

1. Use the disp key to page through the Dealer Calibration screens

until you reach the RUDD DAMP screen.

2. Use the -1 or +1 keys to adjust the rudder damping:

increase the damping one level at a time until the autopilot
stops hunting, and always use the lowest acceptable value

Save the new settings

When you have adjusted these basic settings in Dealer Calibration:

press and hold standby for two seconds to store the changes

the screen will show DEALER CAL then the STANDBY screen
