NORMAL OPERATION
4.2.1 General
The fob (transmitter) buttons replicate the functions available from the
autopilot to provide the same course changing and auto-tacking
functionality. In addition, the autopilot mode can be changed between
Standby, Auto, Wind Vane and Track from the fob.
A red light on the fob indicates when a button is being
pressed. A red light on the receiver turns on to
acknowledge each button press.
When pressing a button hold the button down for
about half a second. A button press which is too short will be ignored and
a button press which is too long may cause an undesired mode change. A
bit of experimentation will allow you to get to know the required button
press durations.
