The tiller pilot displays the cross track error in the following ways:

2 Using the Tiller Pilot

On track

Off track to port (steer to starboard)

Off track to starboard (steer to port)

D3294-2

Tidal stream compensation

Under most operating conditions, Track mode will hold the selected track to within ±0.05 nm (300 ft) or better.

The autopilot takes account of the boat’s speed when computing course changes to ensure optimum performance over a wide range of boat speeds. If speed data is available, the autopilot will use the measured boat speed. Otherwise it will use the default cruise speed entered in Calibration Level 5 (see page 64).
