Our old boat had a WP5000 when we first bought her. If you have the basic model then the controller is a simple three button job - set, steer starboard, steer port. All you can do is get the boat onto the required course and hit set. There is no specific course computer as such.
I believe that originally there was a vane option for course by wind and a more sophisticated controller the H-5000.
