EV400

[watsala]

Hi Chuck & Others,

Finally got around to removing the old AP and installing my EV400 with the Axiom Pro. First impressions are I love the EV400 - works really nice with the Axiom Pro. It is install on a Waiquez Hood 38 Keeler Sailboat. (13 Ton) with linear hydraulics driven by motor.

I have got three residual questions:

1. Can the autopilot be made to auto advance to next Way point? Currently it tells me way point arrival, but I need to tap the screen to advance to next way point else it just sails past way point on current course.

2. When changing course between way points and sometimes when engaging autopilot, for a second or two it causes the helm to quickly oscillate back and forth. Any ideas?

3. I still have the old mechanical leaver to engage hydraulics (see picture) - and by turning this on the wheel locks (then I engage autopilot). Is this what the clutch should do if I had wired it up?

Cheers

W
