Enabling Auto Response

When using the autopilot system on a Sailboat or a Sailing Catamaran vessel, you can set the response setting to Auto so that the autopilot system automatically adjusts the response setting based on sea conditions. The Auto setting automatically lowers the response setting to Low (4) in calm sea conditions, and raises it to Normal in rough sea conditions. The autopilot system uses pitch and roll information to determine sea conditions, as well as wind data, if available.

  1. From the autopilot screen, select Options > Response.
  2. Select Auto repeatedly until it shows the preferred sensitivity level, Low through High.

    The response setting will adjust automatically based on sea conditions. The higher you set the auto response setting, the system will be more sensitive to pitch, roll, and wind data when adjusting the response.
