Taking command
Take command by pressing the CMD key. When command is
transferred, the autopilot system will remain in current mode.
In an open system (no command transfer restrictions), you will get
immediate control on the remote unit requesting command.
In a multi-station system with active lock function, the command
request must be confirmed on the active control unit before you
can use the remote.

Using the NF80

the mid-position when the lever is released.
You can use the NF80 in NFU, AUTO and NoDrift mode.
You can also get command if the system is in FU, NAV or Wind
mode, but you cannot operate these modes from the NF80.
