Powerboat Autopilot Operation

The autopilot follows the man overboard pattern, and the heading screen

shows the direction of the turn ➀.

TIP: To quickly resume a pattern after you make a heading adjustment with

the helm or the soft keys

(page

3), select the center soft key twice.

Cancelling a steering Pattern

While following a steering pattern, perform one of the following actions:

• Physically steer the boat at the helm (if your autopilot is equipped

with Shadow Drive).

• Use the soft keys to manually adjust the heading.

• Select STBY.

You are responsible for the safe operation of your boat. Do not begin a GPS

pattern until you are certain that the water is clear of obstacles.

The autopilot can steer the boat along a route defined by your GPS device,

or in preset patterns based on a GPS location (waypoint). To use GPS

steering, you must have a compatible GPS device connected to the autopilot

using NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183. For more information on connecting a

➀

compatible GPS device, see the autopilot installation instructions.

GPS steering patterns are based on a GPS waypoint to which you are

actively navigating using your optional GPS device. This waypoint is called

the active waypoint.
