The TP10 Tiller Pilot features intuitive controls for easy operation.
5.1 Контроле прекоview
- STBY/AUTO Button (Red): Toggles between Standby and Auto modes. In Standby, the pilot is disengaged, allowing manual steering. In Auto mode, the pilot maintains the set course.
- Arrow Buttons (Blue, Up/Down): Used to adjust the course in Auto mode. Pressing the up arrow will steer the boat to starboard, and the down arrow to port.
- TACK Button: Initiates a tack maneuver, automatically turning the boat through a pre-set angle.
- Дугме CAL: Used for calibration procedures.
- ЛЕД индикатори: Provide visual feedback on the unit's status (e.g., red for standby, green for auto).

- Engaging Auto Mode: Once you are on your desired course, press the STBY/AUTO button. The LED indicator will change to green, and the tiller pilot will engage, holding the current heading.
- Course Adjustment: Док сте у аутоматском режиму, користите Дугмад са стрелицама to make small course corrections. Each press will typically adjust the course by a few degrees.
- Disengaging Auto Mode: To return to manual steering, press the STBY/AUTO button again. The unit will revert to Standby mode (red LED), and you can take control of the tiller.
- Tack Maneuver: To perform a tack, ensure you are in Auto mode and press the ТАЦК button. The pilot will automatically turn the boat through the pre-programmed tack angle.
The internal fluxgate compass provides accurate heading information, allowing the TP10 to maintain a precise course. The unit's robust design ensures reliable performance even in challenging marine environments.
