The fixed control head has only four keypads to engage and disengage the various modes, change course, power steer, or select GPS navigation automatic waypoint steering. Parameters for different steering conditions can be easily optimized during initial calibration. They seldom require further adjustment due to adaptive control (i.e. automatic compensation for varying steering conditions). Pilot course alarms and watch alarms are built-in for added safety. Automatic diagnostics indicate possible causes for an autopilot failure to aid in easy trouble-shooting. Waterproof construction includes ultrasonic welded windows, custom molded neoprene gasket, pressurized rubber keypads, sealed contact terminals, gore-tex® lining at audible alarm and injection molded cover for wire entry. The portable remote control head may be mounted in its bulkhead bracket for storage and operation, and may be conveniently carried to any location for remote control of automatic steering, power steering, or monitoring of rudder angle and course. A virtually unlimited number and combination of controls can be installed in the A-1500. Station transfer is effected simply by pressing any key on the desired station. Stations not in control blink with "Passive" indication, so that the status of any station is clearly recognized.
