Note ! The standard NMEA output rate is 1x/second. When Output INSTR is set
to J300X-1, the Junction Unit output port #1 (TX1) will have an output
rate of 5x/second for HDM or HDT messages (heading). The RSA (rudder
angle) message is always 5x/second.
3.13 Sea Trial
The Sea-trial menu can only be accessed if the Dockside Settings are
done and confirmed. It is also recommended that the Interface Setup
be performed prior to Seatrial settings.
The seatrial settings do the following:
• Rudder zero adjust (To tell the AP300 the precise midships position
of the rudder)
• Compass calibration (To automatically compensate for onboard
magnetic Deviation)
• Compass Offset (To offset the final compass heading readout)
