RUDDER HARD-OVER TIME
To finish the rudder end stop commissioning procedure the autopilot
must calculate the rudder hard-over port to hard-over starboard time.
The following points must observed before carrying out the procedure:
1. If the boat is equipped with hydraulic power assisted steering the
engines must be running during setting the rudder end stops.
2. The rudder hard-over to hard-over time can only be calculated
with the boat stationary.
If during timing the display shows the error message ERR 18,
check:
•
The boat speed is less than 3 knots.
•
The rudder reference unit must move through an angle of at least 90
°
when the wheel is turned from hardover to hardover.
•
The output variation from the rudder reference unit is greater than 1
volt from hard-over port to hard-over starboard. Refer to Section 1
Rudder Reference Unit for installation details and check the
installation.
•
The separate power supply to the ACP control unit is switched on.
