3 Advanced Operation<br />
Note: See page 71 for a full explanation of rudder gain and how to<br />
adjust it correctly.<br />
If necessary, you can make a temporary change to rudder gain<br />
as follows:<br />
1. Press the -1 and +1 keys together for 1 second to display the<br />
rudder gain (RUDD GAIN) screen:<br />
• if you have set up the RUDD GAIN screen as a default data page<br />
(see page 81) you can also access it by pressing disp and then<br />
scrolling through the data pages.<br />
2. Press -1 or +1 to change the rudder gain.<br />
3. Press disp or wait for 5 seconds to return to the previous display.<br />
Note: You will lose these temporary changes to rudder gain<br />
whenever the system is powered off. You can make permanent<br />
adjustments in User or Dealer Calibration (see page 91).<br />
WARNINGS:<br />
1. You must set rudder gain correctly on planing craft. Incorrect<br />
rudder gain will lead to poor steering performance and can be<br />
dangerous at high speeds.<br />
2. If you increase the rudder gain setting on a Type 150G/400G<br />
autopilot, you must also increase the counter rudder setting.
