- Rudder limit: Determines the maximum rudder movement in degrees from midship
position that the autopilot can command the rudder in the automatic modes. The
Rudder limit setting is only active during autosteering on straight courses, not during
course changes. Rudder limit does not affect Follow-up or Non-Follow-up steering.
- Off heading limit: Sets the limit for the off heading alarm. An alarm occurs when the
actual heading deviates from the set heading more than the selected limit.
