Illumination
The scale is illuminated by internal LED’s. The illumination is turned on and adjusted in three steps by the front panel key pad.
Zero adjust
Follow the instructions on page
Note!
There may be a difference in the RI35 and the autopilot reading. This is normal because the autopilot zero adjust compensates for drag caused by the hull, flaps etc. If you prefer the readings to be aligned, then put the rudder amidships using the RI35 as reference, and then zero adjust the autopilot.
Reversed deflection
SW1
On installations where the feedback unit is mounted upside down, the deflection of the pointer will be reversed. To make it correct set SW1 on the PCB to the opposite position.
The first production lots did not have the SW1 switch. Instead interchange the brown and white wires going from the instrument housing to the PCB.
