Connects to: SD80 board (in SD80, AC80S or AC85 Computer ) or AD80 board (in AD80,

The Ready signal is given when the autopilot system is operative for taking control. In case
of serious software or hardware failure and when the system is turned off, the signal line will
open. Some steering gears will use the signal to block rudder/thruster command in case of a
serious autopilot failure.
