Recovery Mode Sensitivity (RECOV)

This function is only available when a Halcyon Gyro Stabilised
Compass is connected to the system.

Recovery Mode allows the user to select the sensitivity that allows
the Autopilot to react to unexpected events, for example sudden
wave or wind shifts. This function allows the Autopilot to
instantaneously increase the steering response to its maximum
setting (PERF 4), and make a rapid recovery.

The Recovery Mode will automatically switch off after 15 seconds
or when the heading error has been corrected. The Autopilot will
then resume the previous response setting and continue normal
operation.

There are four options available dependent on the severity of the
prevailing conditions:

(a) Off -

the Recovery Mode function is switched off.

(b) WIDE

-

in this setting, the Autopilot is least

sensitive to sudden course changes.

(c) MED - in this setting, the Autopilot is configured to

the medium value when correcting sudden course
changes.

(d) NARR

-

in this setting, the Autopilot is most

sensitive to sudden course changes.
