Good evening,
I am installing a Navpilot 300 on an existing autopilot pump. In the dock trial setup I get to rudder test. Then it gets complicated.
The pump I’m using is a Wood Freeman 521 A, on a 531 pump connected to a Comnav CT3.
I have installed and configured the FAP-6112 RRU.
In the rudder test it will go past the rudder limit of 28 degrees, hit 35 degrees and dead head the pump blowing the fuse in the motor controller. This is after progressively swinging the rudder more and more and faster and faster. Probably 30 seconds into the test.
It seems strange that it will go past the rudder limit and keep the pump running.
Current settings:
Rudder limit port and starboard 28 degrees
Auto rudder limit 23 degrees
Manual rudder limit 28 degrees
I have gone over the settings and dialed them back to keep from dead heading and find myself at a loss.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
