WARNING
See the Important Safety and Product Information guide in the product box for
product warnings and other important information.
You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. The
autopilot is a tool that will enhance your capability to operate your boat. It does
not relieve you from the responsibility of safely operating your boat. Avoid
navigational hazards and never leave the helm unattended.
Always be prepared to promptly regain manual control of your boat.
Learn to operate the autopilot on calm and hazard-free open water.
Use caution when operating the autopilot near hazards in the water, such as
docks, pilings, and other boats.
Device Overview
The autopilot system continuously adjusts the steering of your boat to maintain a
constant heading. In addition to the basic heading-hold functionality, the system
allows manual steering and several modes of automatic-steering functions and
patterns.
Operate the autopilot system using the helm control device. Using the helm
control, you engage and steer, set up, and customize the autopilot system.
To install the autopilot system, including the helm control, refer to the installation
instructions for each device.

Powerboat Autopilot Operation
Heading Hold
You can engage the autopilot heading hold function to maintain your current
heading without steering the helm.
Engaging the Autopilot
When you engage the autopilot, the autopilot takes control of the helm and steers
the boat to maintain your heading.
From the heading screen, select Engage.
"Heading Hold" appears in green at the top of the heading screen. A green
icon appears in the upper-right corner of the screen when the device is in
heading hold. This icon helps you determine the status of the autopilot and
can be seen on every screen on the device. Your heading shows in the
center of the heading screen.
Adjusting the Heading with the Keys
You can steer your boat using the keys at the bottom of the helm control.
With the autopilot engaged, select an option.
• Select 1°> 10°>> or <<10° <1° to use rudder steering mode. Rudder
steering mode turns the boat in 1° increments, and steers the boat when
you hold a key.
• Hold 1°> 10°>> or <<10° <1° to use step steering mode. Step steering
mode turns the boat in 10° increments.
AF
In standby mode, you can engage the autopilot, adjust settings, or specify the
transmission direction (page 2) of your boat (forward or reverse) by using the
soft keys.
"Standby" appears in yellow and a yellow icon displays in the upper-right corner
of the screen when the device is in standby mode.
Adjusting the Heading with the Helm
NOTE: When you manually maintain a specific heading for a few seconds, the
autopilot resumes control of the new heading.
With the autopilot engaged, manually steer the boat.
A yellow marker and the numerical display on the center of the heading
screen indicate the intended heading.
The heading screen displays the status of the autopilot and the heading screen.
When the autopilot is engaged, you can adjust the heading using the keys on the
helm control or using the helm if your autopilot is equipped with Shadow Drive™
technology.
Direction Control
When your boat is properly equipped, you can control the drive direction of the
boat (forward or reverse) using the helm control.
Enabling Direction Control
1 Select Menu > Setup > User Autopilot Setup > Direction Control.
2 Select Enabled.
Using Direction Control
Before you can use direction control, you must enable the direction control
functionality (page 2).
When traveling in standby mode, select Direction.

WARNING
The Williamson turn pattern is not determined by GPS and is affected by wind,
current, and speed. Be ready to adjust the throttle and take the helm to avoid
harm to a person in the water.

WARNING
You are responsible for the safe operation of your boat. Do not begin a GPS
pattern until you are certain that the water is clear of obstacles.
The autopilot can steer the boat along a route defined by your GPS device or in
preset patterns based on a GPS location (waypoint). To use GPS steering, you
must have a compatible GPS device connected to the autopilot using NMEA
2000® or NMEA® 0183. GPS steering patterns are based on a GPS waypoint to
which you are actively navigating using your optional GPS device. This waypoint
is called the active waypoint.
Following a GPS Steering Route
The autopilot can steer the boat according to a route defined on a compatible
GPS device.
1 Create and navigate a route on your GPS device.
2 Select Menu > GPS Steering > Follow Route.
Cancelling a GPS Steering Pattern
• Physically steer the boat.
Orbit Pattern
The orbit pattern steers the boat in a continuous circle around the active
waypoint. The size of the circle is defined by your distance from the active
waypoint when you begin the orbit pattern.
Following an Orbit Pattern
1 Select Menu > GPS Steering > Orbit > Engage.
2 Select an option:
• Select
to begin a clockwise turn.
• Select
to begin a counter-clockwise turn.
Cloverleaf Pattern
The cloverleaf pattern steers the boat to repeatedly pass over an active waypoint.
When you begin the cloverleaf pattern, the autopilot drives the boat toward the
active waypoint and begins the cloverleaf pattern.
Setting Up the Cloverleaf Pattern
You can adjust the distance from the waypoint at which the autopilot turns your
boat for another pass over the waypoint. The default setting turns the boat at a
range of 1000 ft. (300 m) from the active waypoint.

Wind Hold
You can set the autopilot to maintain a specific bearing relative to the current
wind angle. Your device must be connected to a NMEA 2000 or NMEA 0183
compatible wind sensor to perform a wind hold or a wind-based tack or gybe.

Search Pattern
The search pattern steers the boat in increasingly larger circles outward from the
active waypoint, forming a spiral pattern. When you begin the search pattern, the
autopilot drives the boat to the active waypoint and begins the pattern.
Setting Up the Search Pattern
You can adjust the distance between each circle in the spiral. The default
distance between circles in 50 ft. (20 m).
