I ask because on the Seaking which I flew in the Navy, we'd select STAB OFF on touch down on decks, if we were going to be there for a while.
I never flew th B412 but did fly B212s, with three different AFCS systems, and our SOP was to 'turn off' for every landing - onshore or offshore. It was using the right 'pinky' on a cyclic button as I recall.
