    The document summarizes a new Straight Leg Course Control (ACE) function for the PR-6000 Series Autopilot. ACE automatically creates an efficient route between the ship's position and destination, accounting for tides and disturbances, and optimizes rudder control. Test results found ACE reduced fuel consumption by 1-2%, cut route deviations, decreased course changes and rudder usage, and lessened the workload for helmsmen compared to normal autopilot controls. The ACE function can be easily integrated into existing PR-6000 Autopilots.

    Autopilot

    PR-6000 Series
    Straight Leg Course Control Unit

    The latest Automatic Steering


    Function (ACE: Advanced Control
    for Ecology) is now available for
    integration to existing PR-6000
    Autopilots!
    * Optional installation for PR-9000 series Autopilot

    Straight Leg Course Control (ACE) is


    a new Course Control function (ACE: Advanced Control for Ecology) that automatically creates a route
    on the heading between the ship's current position and destination, calculates outside desturbances (tides),
    and implements the best rudder control making it possible for the vessel to sail the most efficient route.
    Destination ACE Compared to normal automatic
    Tide / Wind （Course Control） steering (Heading Control),
    ● Less route deviation
    Own Ship position
    ● Shorter sailing distance
    HCS
    （Heading Control System） ● Reduction in the use of Rudder
    ● Minimized burden on the Helmsman

    contribute to a safe and more


    efficient voyage.

    Characteristics of Straight Leg Course Control function (ACE)


    商品の仕様及びデザインは改良等のため予告なく変更する場合があります。
    Reduction in Fuel consumption (about 1∼2% reduction)
    ●
    ご注意 ご使用の際は取扱説明書をよくお読みの上、正しく安全にお使いください。
    ● Route deviation is reduced allowing the vessel to sail the shortest distance to the

    destination without influence from tides etc, and the safety of the voyage is improved.
    ● Reduction in course changes decreases the amount of Rudder used lessening the burden
