MOB Overshoot

Code 14:

The Man overboard maneuver can be tuned to run over or close to the object or point at any given speed, but may miss

at another speed. You should probably adjust the maneuver at a speed that is below planing speed. If the object or point passes on

your starboard reduce code 28. See page 15.

Code 15 & 16:

Most GPS systems only send cross track error across the NMEA 0183 data bus with .01 mile (60 feet) resolution.

Unfortunately, they display cross track error to the nearest foot. What this means is, don't expect the autopilot to zero the cross

track error because the information it has is-that any crosstrack error less than 60 ft (as seen on the GPS display) is zero feet. Adjust

parameter 15 up until the boat oscillates back and forth near the course line, then back it down a few clicks. Increase parameter 16

until you can see that standoff from the course line decreases over time.

Use Magnetic North

Set North

Use Synthetic XTE

Code 167:

On some GPS' this code may result in tighter tracking near waypoints.

Use NMEA Checksum

Code 347:

If your GPS calculates checksums wrong, you may still be able to use it with this code turned off. Data

integrity is compromised in this condition.

Use Reversed XTE

Code 18:

Some GPS' send the wrong direction to steer with the crosstrack error signal. Use this code to fix this

problem.

Use GPS 1 GPS 2

Code 34:

This code switches between the two sources of NMEA navigation data used by the autopilot to steer with.

Update rate for HDG out

Code 49:

With this code at the bottom of its range (Down Arrow LED on) the autopilot does not transmit $APHDG. With

any settings other than off, the data is transmitted at a rate equal to (1-code 49 setting) HZ. up to a maximum rate of 10 Hz.
