Autopilot | Triton Operation Manual
The prompt display shows the name of the destination waypoint, the new waypoint bearing
and course change from the previous waypoint to the destination waypoint.
¼ Note: If only one waypoint has been entered the bearing will be from the boat’s position to
the destination waypoint.
¼ Note: For Cross Track Error, the number of decimals shown depends on the output from the
GPS/chartplotter. Three decimals give more accurate course keeping.
When operating the autopilot in Navigation mode to steer along a route, the autopilot will
steer to the nearest waypoint in the direction of the route after you accept the Navigation
mode prompt. When you arrive at the waypoint, the system will output an audible warning,
display an alert screen with the new course information, and automatically change course
onto the new leg.
Alert warning
An alert screen will warn you that the course change is greater than 10°. Press ‘Enter’ to
confirm the course change.
¼ Note: If the required course change is more than the Navigation change limit (default 10°),
you have to verify that the upcoming course change is acceptable. This is a safety feature. See
Navigation change limit on how to change this setting.
Non Follow Up mode
Whilst in Standby mode, pressing any of the port or starboard keys will move the rudder to
your desired angle and change the autopilot mode to Non Follow Up.
Non Follow Up mode allows you to control the rudder position manually via the autopilot
controller.
¼ Note: The pilot will remain in Non Follow Up mode until it is disengaged by pressing ‘STBY’ or
a new mode is selected.
