RE: [CA11] Autopilot hunts terribly
Hi there, happy Monday.
1. I can confirm the green LED is pointing forward on the boat. 2. The Pilot Factory Reset is what I have performed a few times now.. each time followed by the dockside wizard and then the appropriate compass calibration.. deviation remains between 2-4 3. Speed source has not been configured to manual. 4. Hard over time is 20 seconds but changing it does not seem to affect the pilot's behavior. I have tried the settings above everywhere from 6-20. 5. No significant play, perhaps a slight bit of looseness. Again, it seems like something is going wrong in the way it communicated to itself -- it doesn't know how to do small 'tick' adjustments, which I have seen to be a characteristic movement of this system. One thing I have noted is that the associated "power on/off" light on my breaker panel has a slow fade when I flip it off to depower the pilot. Is this because the ACU itself slowly drains DC until it shuts off, or could this be a sign of a wiring issue? Video of the power light. "Instrument" is a different circuit, the "Accessory" switch is what the Seatalk backbone and the ACU are connected to. https://youtu.be/uskIgQVcqeM |
