dodging obstacles while in Track mode (EV-200)

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum roriol,

The procedure which you have specified is indeed correct for such dodging actions, although use of the +/-1 or +/-10 buttons will cause an autopilot which is in Track mode to enter Auto mode, not Standby. To re-join the course line, the Track button would be pressed. Should you have deviated significantly from the course line and a should the course line from the vessel's present position to the destination waypoint keep the vessel in safe waters, then the Reset XTE feature may be used. The latest Evolution autopilot software updates includes modifications to permit more slowly re-joining the course line. Should you not have already performed this software update, then it is recommended that you do so.
