1.6Heading Alignment

Heading alignment is required when sensor heading is different from actual heading.

This alignment must be done using magnetic heading (default setting).

CAUTION

Turn off the autopilot before aligning heading.

The autopilot may turn the rudder suddenly.

Procedure

2.Set difference between sensor heading (out- put) and actual heading with the [+] or [-]

key. For example, the hading output by the

sensor is 70° and the actual heading is 75° . Therefore, the difference is +5° . Press the

[+]key five times to set +5° . Each time the

[+]key is pressed the LEDs light as shown in Figure 14.

The deffault setting is 100 ms.

1.Disconnect the power connector from the sensor.

2.Reattach the connector to the sensor while pressing the [+] key. The PG-1000 is pow- ered on, and the current output interval is shown by the LEDs.

1.Press the [-] and [+] keys together more than two seconds. All LEDs go off.
