Off Course

OFF alternating with COURSE

This alarm is activated when the vessel has been off course from the
locked heading by more than the specified angle for more than 20
seconds (see Using Auto Mode in Chapter 2).

The alarm is cleared if the heading recovers or the course is changed,
or if the operating mode is changed.

Wind Shift

WIND alternating with SHIFT

This alarm is activated when a change in the apparent wind angle
requires an adjustment of the locked heading by more than 15° (see
Operating in Wind Mode in this Chapter).

Large Cross Track Error

This alarm is activated when the cross track error exceeds 0.3 nm (see
Operating in Track Mode in this Chapter).

The alarm is cleared if the cross track error falls below 0.3 nm, or if the
operating mode is changed.

Drive Stopped

DRIVE alternating with STOPPED

This alarm is activated if the autopilot is unable to turn the rudder. This

rudder position is past the preset rudder limits or the rudder end-stops.
