1 General

The remote NFU tiller (dual) is used on the bridge to steer a course and is installed at the

vessel control panel or navigating stand (

NON F OLLOW U P). Two remote NFU tillers are

needed at all times to act as dual tillers for twin rudder equipment with separate rudder blade

control.

Either of two operating modes – SYNCHRONOUS or INDEPENDENT -- may be selected.

In order to change the rudder angle (e.g. to starboard) turn the joystick up to the mechanical

end, a switch contact is closed. In order to change the rudder angle (e. g. to starboard) press

the joystick to the right.

Operating instructions

These operating instructions contain every operational procedure as well as information about

behaviour when alarms occur. Such alarms are indicated on the digital display units and also by

means of flashing LEDs and audible alarm signals.

Service manual

In addition to the operating manual, there is also a service manual. It contains the following:

-- Information relating to installation and initial start-up

-- Information relating to maintenance and repairs, and

-- a description of the tiller

2 Remote NFU Tiller (dual) in Steering Control system

Remote NFU tillers (dual) are bus users on the user device bus (BG bus)

on the NP 2000

autopilot control transmitter within a secondary steering system.

The remote NFU tiller (dual) is activated by setting the steering mode selector either to the

REMOTE or the AUTO/REMOTE setting (see figure). The bus transfers the control signals,

and the NP2000 Autopilot Control Unit converts these i nto analogue control signals for the FU

amplifier.

The control point and operating mode (SYNCHRONOUS or INDEPENDENT) can be selected

on site. The selection is made according to the “Take Over” principle, i.e. only one control point

is active for SYNCHRONOUS operation, and both are active for INDEPENDENT operation.

A total of 15 bus users can be connected.

3 Notes to operating instructions

The system operates interactively (i.e. an action causes a reaction).

Each operating procedure shown must be completed step by step. Where necessary and in the

relevant sections, we have added useful supplementary notes alongside the illustrations

(symbols).

We recommend that you fold out the appendix page since it contains an illustration of all the

controls and indications.

4 Switching on

When the full rudder control system is switched on, the remote NFU tillers (dual) are also

ready for operation in REMOTE or in AUTO/REMOTE mode.

4.1 General

Notes

red

For example:

The display is indicating the current rudder

angle in ° , the relevant LED is illuminated.

If the final decimal point of the indicated figure

is illuminated, this means that an additional

0.5 ° is being indicated. In the example: 10,5°

Rudder position is indicated by illuminating the

relevant LED (PORT is red, STBD is green).

Both LEDs remain unlit when the rudder posi-

tion is 0 °

It is possible to have two different system configurations.

a) The NFU tiller can only be used in REMOTE operating mode.

b) In AUTO/REMOTE operation mode, it is possible to switch between NFU

tiller and autopilot operation without activating the steering mode selector.
