Operation
CAUTION!
Learn to manage the system and how it affects your
boat in a safe and proper manner at calm conditions.
Auto/Active
Press the TRIM ASSIST button (1) to switch on the
Auto/Active function; The button's green lamp
indicates that the function is on. The system now
controls the interceptors automatically.
It is possible to switch between automatic/active and
manual interceptor blade control in the Auto/Active
version. To take manual control, switch off the auto/
active function by pressing the TRIM ASSIST button;
when the button lamp is extinguished the function is off.
The interceptor blades are now controlled entirely by
the control buttons.
NOTICE! At start up, the system assumes the mode
last selected, auto/active or manual.
The control buttons may be used to temporarily adjust
boat trim even when the auto/active function is
switched on. The auto/active function is still active but
the system changes default mode. To revert to pre-
calibrated auto/active mode, press the TRIM ASSIST
button twice.
Active settings
Depending on circumstances, in the interceptor view in
Glass cockpit, Active Pitch/Active Roll can be switched
on/off in systems with active functionality.
Normally for best effect, both Active Pitch and Active
Roll should be switched on.
- If strongest possible pitch damping is preferred, turn
Active Roll off or increase Active Pitch sensitivity.
- If strongest possible roll damping is preferred, turn
Active Pitch off or increase Active Roll sensitivity.
In the settings it is possible to change Pitch/ Roll
sensitivity from –20 to +20, depending on preferences.
A low sensitivity will reduce the damping of the vessel
movements. A high sensitivity creates the most
effective damping, but not necessarily the most
comfortable ride. Too high sensitivity can create a
tendency of the vessel rolling back and forth, in which
case, the sensitivity should be reduced.
