Constant speed is not the same as auto pitch.

With constant speed prop the pilot selects the rpm and the prop will adjust the blade angles to keep constant rpm no matter where the throttle is set, within the prop's range of course.

Auto pitch is like the German system on Bf 109 and FW 190, a very different thing.
