[CA] [CA11] Axiom Pro to S1000

[Chuck - Raymarine - Moderator]

Mr. Marty,

Q1. So we just finished this interface. The "Autopilot Control" in the Axiom setup menu won't go to the on position.
A1. The Autopilot Controls feature of Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFDs is exclusively supported when the Axiom/Axiom Pro/Axiom XL MFD system has been interfaced to an Evolution autopilot. While the Autopilot Controls feature of Raymarine MFDs cannot be used with other autopilots, this does not however mean that other autopilots which have been correctly interfaced to a Raymarine MFD cannot be used to track to a waypoint or to follow a route. It simply means that the autopilot's control head must be used to engage Standby, Auto, and Track mode or to perform changes to the autopilot's locked heading. An autopilot's Track mode may be entered after the MFD has been commanded to Go To Waypoint / Cursor Position or to Follow Route. The latter action sends steering information to the autopilot course computer to support track mode.

Q2. Is there a way to test it without the boat being in motion with an established COG?
A2. Negative.
