PILOT ENGAGED - SELECTING NAV MODE


Steer the boat until the compass heading is
approximately the same as the selected waypoint bearing
(refer to your position fixer).

Press the MODE key to select NAV, NAV1 or NAV2.

Press the AUTO key to engage the autopilot if it's not
already engaged.

The Network PILOT Display indicates XTE (cross track
error) to port < or starboard > in Nautical Miles, and the
autopilots course on the large digits.

If necessary, use the <10,<1,1>,10> keys to alter the
autopilots course to port or starboard until the XTE value is
less than 0.03, this will enable the autopilot to find the
correct track more quickly. Refer to CHANGING COURSE
for more information about course changes.
