12 VOLT ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT
A. Helm Equipment
Helm equipment circuitry is protected by circuit
breakers in the helm and/or aft circuit breaker panels,
or in the cabin's DC panel. The power is supplied to
the helm by the house battery when the battery is
placed in the "active" mode. Depress the push-button
labeled "HOUSE ACTIVE" switch on the DC cabin
panel. A green LED should light up indicating the
house battery is "ON" and supplying power to the
ship's 12 volt systems. See Figures H5 & H9.
Figure H9: Battery Activation Switches
The HELM MAIN circuit breaker on the DC cabin
panel, when placed in the "ON" position (indicated by
the lit "red" LED) supplies power to the helm. See
Figures H5 & H10.

Figure H11: Helm Switch Panel
To prevent electrical problems, use only
replacement fuses or breakers that are of
equal rating to the originals.
12 Volt DC Receptacle - Permits the use of additional
12 volt equipment such as a cell phone. Using the
appropriate adaptor, the equipment draws power from
the boat's house battery. See Figure F12.
iPod/MP3 Player Port - Allows you to play music from
your iPod or MP3 player over your boat's sound
system. See Figure F12.

Searchlight Remote Control - Allows the searchlight to
be operated from the helm. Activate the switch to turn
the searchlight "ON". Using the arrow button above
the "ON" switch allows the searchlight to be positioned
in the desired direction. The searchlight can be either
a spot or flood light by pressing the respective switch.
See Figure H13. Consult the manufacturer's operating
manual for additional information on the use and care
of the searchlight.
