When the autopilot jambs the rudder over 30 degrees, it is time to trim sails.
We need an alert for that.
The signal does not seem to be getting through.
Rudder is always off limits.
What does "Lower Limit" and "Upper Limit" mean? This is the rudder! it is 5 degrees to starboard or 7 degrees to port or 0 for example.
I think Lower and upper limit should be "P" port and "S" starboard.
Also the display should have Rudder P [actual degrees of rudder] > [degrees value entered] or similar for starboard.
Or maybe it should display P[degrees entered] < [Rudder degrees] > S[degrees entered] with the alert changing the signs and color?
