Simrad AP26 and AP27 Autopilots
Master Reset
Note ! A Master Reset is part of the final test at the factory, which will reset the memories to factory settings. Unless you need to clear all stored values during the installation setup procedure, you should not perform a Master Reset.
Under Service in the Installation Menu, select Master reset of memories by pressing the STBD button and confirm this by rotating the course knob clockwise.
The Master Reset needs a double confirmation to prevent an accidental reset. To perform a Master Reset, rotate the course knob clockwise and observe the display; then rotate the course knob counter clockwise. The display will then read: “Master Reset confirmed”.
Unless you have made a Master Reset, exit the Installation Menu by pressing STBY to return to normal autopilot operation.
In the event a Master Reset has been made, refer to chapter 4.2.
Final sea trial
After having completed all settings in the Installation Menu, take the boat out and perform a final sea trial in open waters at a safe distance from other traffic.
•Steer the boat on all cardinal headings in AUTO mode.
•Start with low and medium speeds to get familiar with the response from the autopilot.
•Try the effect of LO and HI parameter settings.
•If the hardware for automatic HI/LO selection is connected and configured, verify that the HI/LO transition is occurring, and the HI/LO parameters are changing after the transition speed is crossed (by more than 1 Knot higher or lower speed).
