[CA11] Hard over time on evolution wheel pilot - Mark maulden - 10-13-19 12:00 AM

The P70S manual seems to give a procedure for determining hard-over time for smart and SPX pilots but not for evolution pilots. Manual says this an important setting. The procedure delineated for such does not work for evolution. At least for me. What is the procedure to satisfy this requirement for evolution? Tnx

Welcome back to the Raymarine Forum Mark,

In actuality, the hard over time is defaulted to ten seconds and rarely needs to be changed. However, should one desire to determine hard over time then while the vessel is tied to the dock, turn the wheel hard over in one direction. Next, drive it to the other stop by applying 12VDC or 24VDC (depending on the model of drive) to the drive's motor leads while monitoring the amount of time required to reach hard over.
