YDK Technologies Autopilot PT-900 Series.

PT900 is an adaptable autopilot that optimizes gain and minimizes unnecessary steering action. It fully conforms to IMO Resolution A.342(IX), A.694(17), 64(67) Annex 3 & 191(79), ISO 11674, IEC 60945, IEC 61162-1/-2 and IEC 62288, and improves economical efficiency, safety, usability and extensibility. A Batch Noise Adaptive Autopilot Controller automatically updates the optimal rudder angle by calculating surrounding disturbance, achieving course keeping equal to model PT500A with 60 % less steer. A seven-inch colour display and touch panel provide high visibility, user-friendly layout and constant main-data display. Flexible CAN-BUS networking lets functionally separated units scale easily, while optional Track Control and E-Course Pilot modes enhance fuel saving and planned-route keeping.

  • High-visibility seven-inch colour display
  • Intuitive touch-panel operation
  • Scalable CAN-BUS architecture
  • CAN-BUS error and disconnect detection
