Simrad AP35 Autopilot is developed with the particular needs of the professional mariner in mind. Small crew fishing vessels and work boats will find a perfect partner in the AP35. Simple Operation An autopilot must be simple to operate whether the boat is in transit or at work. The AP35 is equipped with dedicated push buttons for all major functions. For automatic steering when in transit the AUTO mode is the natural choice. On longer distances when connected to a radio navigator (GPS, Loran or Decca), the AP35 steers the boat along a pre-planned route in the NAV mode. The WORK mode is entered when operating under conditions where special features are needed. Automatic U-turn and a C-(continuous)turn with adjustable radius are easily activated. Dodging can be performed on the control unit or a remote. Local and remote course change Course changes are made by a rotary course selector, a highly valued Simrad feature. Fine tuning of the set course is made in 1 increments by the PORT and STBD push buttons. Course changes can also be made by a handheld remote or a fixed steering lever. Excellent readability A large LCD with excellent readability and back-lighting also on the push buttons make the operation easy day and night. Work mode Traditionally an autopilot is used when in transit. By simply pressing the WORK button, the AP35 automatically adapts to a slow speed operation with increased rudder response. Access to a manual rudder trim (off-set) is provided to immediately compensate for forces that may take the boat off course. The parameter controlling the rudder response is made accessible for fine tune and is stored for later use. Multistation operation A full function second station or a multistation system is made possible by the Robnet data network. As a safety feature you may from one station disable the other ones from taking control by lock-function. Simple installation The high technology and well proven software basis of the AP35 makes the installation and sea trial simple and time saving. Software driven menus for dockside setup and interface are operated from the control unit without the need for accurate mechanical line ups and careful checking of signals. Reliability Reliability is what counts after all. The Simrad AP35 Autopilot now manufactured by Simrad offers high technology and robust design. The back-up security of a worldwide sales and service network with qualified authorized dealers are other important factors in the quality assurance of our products. Magnetic compass interface or fluxgate compass The boats existing magnetic compass can be used by mounting a course detector underneath the compass. Alternatively you can install the Simrad RFC35 fluxgate compass. Automatic calibration is provided and fixed heading errors are easily compensated for in the installation setup. Optional Rate Compass A new dimension in dynamic heading sensor performance. By integrating the full 360 heading resolution of a fluxgate compass with the responsiveness of a rate sensor, the dynamic performance of this heading sensor is dramatically improved. « less
