Autopilot System · Autopilot & Bridge Systems
Wärtsilä SAM AutoTrack is a marine Autopilot System within the Autopilot & Bridge Systems group. Equipment of this type is typically installed at the bridge or steering-control system, with any remote sensors installed at locations appropriate to heading, position or motion measurement. Its primary duty is providing or controlling the vessel data and steering function associated with the Autopilot System, and it uses sensor signals, control electronics, ship power and steering or bridge interfaces to produce a stable navigation or heading-control output. Neighboring variants can differ in rating, size, interface, approval basis or arrangement, so the complete model designation and actual nameplate data are important for identification. It normally interfaces with steering control, heading sensors, GNSS or speed inputs where applicable, bridge alarms, data networks and ship power.
