Automatic turning

If Automatic turning is configured on your chartplotter, the autopilot will automatically turn to the next waypoint when following a route in Steer to Navigation mode, once the vessel reaches the distance specified in the chartplotter’s Arrival Radius (pilot in track mode) setting.

Note
  • Automatic turning is not available when the chartplotter has been configured with the “Sailing” boating activity.

  • For details on configuring Automatic turning refer to the LightHouse 4 Operation instructions (Document number 81406).
