Appendix: Using the <strong>ST6001</strong>+ With Non-150/400 Autopilots 101<br />
Commissioning the autopilot (non-150/400 systems)<br />
Using the <strong>ST6001</strong>+ to commission a non-150/400 autopilot is<br />
basically the same as the commissioning a 150/400 system without a<br />
GyroPlus. It involves a series of dockside checks, then a seatrial to<br />
calibrate the compass and manually adjust the autopilot’s settings.<br />
Follow the instructions in Chapter 6: Commissioning the Autopilot<br />
bearing in mind these main points:<br />
Dockside Checks<br />
With the boat safely tied up, complete the dockside checks described<br />
on page 56 to page 57 of Chapter 6: Commissioning the Autopilot:<br />
1. Switch on.<br />
2. Check the autopilot operating sense.<br />
3. Adjust the basic autopilot settings.<br />
4. Check the SeaTalk and NMEA connections.<br />
When adjusting the basic autopilot settings you will need to enter<br />
Display Calibration, as shown on the illustration on page 103. When<br />
setting the vessel type you will have the following options:<br />
• Displacement: DISPL MNT (including sail boats)<br />
• Semi Displacement: SEMI DIS<br />
• Planing: PLANING<br />
• Stern (I/O) Drive: STERN DRV<br />
Seatrial Calibration<br />
When you have completed the dockside checks, you must complete<br />
the setup by taking the boat on a short seatrial to:<br />
1. Calibrate the compass: complete the automatic deviation<br />
correction and heading alignment as described in Chapter<br />
6: Commissioning the Autopilot.<br />
NOTE: You will need to enter COMPASS CALIBRATION<br />
(not Seatrial Calibration) to swing the compass on a Type<br />
100/300 course computer systems. For more details about<br />
accessing and using the Compass Calibration grouping,<br />
see the next page.<br />
2. Manually adjust the autopilot settings to suit your boat, as<br />
described in Chapter 6: Commissioning the Autopilot.<br />
