6. Angle Calibration
Angle calibration adjusts the sensors in the Seakeeper Ride system to match the detected horizon, providing a target attitude used during Auto Mode operation. Once the Seakeeper Ride is in operation, the system will adjust the boat’s attitude to match the horizon as calibrated during this step. It is critical that the boat is on an even keel with no excess bow or stern trim during this step. Because of the system’s precision, this step takes up to 1 minute to complete and will directly affect the performance of the system.
Note: Excess motion during this step disrupt calibration. If this is performed on water, it must be especially calm. Movement of passengers on board the boat is unacceptable.
There are two ways to perform the angle calibration, both of which will provide the same result. Follow the steps the steps below to use either the Advanced Settings screen or the Install Screen to complete the angle calibration.
Advanced Settings Screen Angle Calibration
- While in the Advanced Settings screen, select Angle under Angle Calibration Settings.
- Wait 60 seconds for the computer to calibrate. Select Rate. Wait an additional 60 seconds for the computer to calibrate.
Install Screen Angle Calibration
- From the Home Screen, press the Settings

- Select Angle Calibration.
- You will be asked if you wish to proceed. Press Continue.
- Selecting Angle Calibration again will provide another prompt asking if you wish to proceed. Press Continue again.
- The calibration will begin. Once completed, the Install screen will reappear.
