    Frequently Asked Questions – Simrad NAC-3 VRF Core Pack - NAC-3, Precision-9 & N2k Starter Kit

    1. What does VRF mean?

    VRF means Virtual Rudder Feedback, a system method that can estimate steering position in compatible installations without a conventional rudder sensor. Confirm supported drive, calibration procedure, software, network wiring, and vessel requirements before commissioning the autopilot.

    2. Does it control a windlass?

    No. The NAC-3 system controls compatible boat steering and does not operate a gypsy, drum, chain, or anchor rope. It is not an electric anchor windlass. Verify separate controls for marine anchor deployment.

    3. What is the condition of the Simrad NAC-3 VRF Core Pack - NAC-3, Precision-9 & N2k Starter Kit (SKU: 000-13338-001) and has it been tested?
