Autotack
The ST7000 has a built in Autotack function
which will turn the vessel through 100°. This
operates in both compass and vane modes
as follows:-
Vane
Push +1 and -1 -10 keys
together to initiate a tack
turning to Starboard.
Push -1 and —10 keys
together to initiate a tack
turning to Port.
Note: It is important that the rudder angle
transducer is accurately aligned as the
Autotack function mirrors standing helm and
any offset will change the initial tack angle.
Wind Trim
Wind Trim allows the autopilot to be
supervised by apparent wind direction. The
wind direction is read either:-
—From the SeaTalk bus (requires Autohelm
ST50 wind).
OR
—Directly from a Masthead Transducer
(Z080).
OR
— From an NMEA 0183 input on the
control unit.
Automatic Heading
Push both red keys together
to select Wind Trim and
maintain the current
apparent wind angle.
Previous Automatic Heading
Push and hold down for 1
second both red keys
together to return to the
previous apparent wind
angle.
