Control
You can control the autopilot via the web browser with any type of mobile, tablet, laptop or PC.
Use the arrow keys in Standby mode to steer the boat in the desired direction. (the desired amount of movement can be set on the Basic config page)
In Auto mode the arrows become degrees:
By clicking on Autopilot you activate the Auto = Follow Course mode, the text then changes to Standby, click Standby to stop the Auto Follow Course.
In Auto mode, Heading is the course you are sailing and Target is the set course.
Mode: By clicking on 'C - Compass Heading' at the top left you open the mode menu where you can choose the desired heading source.
Profile: By clicking on 'default' at the top right, the profile menu opens where you can choose from the profiles you have configured.
By clicking on 'Tack mode' you activate the tacking functionality, after which Tacking mode starts flashing in green. (the green LED on the Controlhead then flashes)
You can then tack in the desired direction by clicking on one of the Tack buttons. If wind data is available, Tack will only appear over the correct direction arrow, by pressing the opposite arrow you can jibe.
Tack mode remains active until you click Tack mode off.
Specific tack settings can be adjusted in the selected Profile, so you can set the desired behavior during the tack for different circumstances, so that your ship will tack very differently in light winds with full sail than in heavy conditions with reefed sail.
