so that inspection and/or repairs to the unit may be performed. The Control Processor should NOT be
installed in adverse locations subject to saltwater exposure or excessive heat.
STEP 2: Mount the Control Processor using 1/4" (7mm) machine bolts or lag screws. If using lag
screws, screw length should be no less than 1" (25mm). If using machine bolts, lockwashers or lock-
nuts MUST be used (figure 1).
1.3 Mount the Control Head
One of the most important factors in selecting
control head locations is the ability to control the
vessel by allowing FULL movement of the control
head handles. The area around the control head
should have proper drainage to eliminate standing
water. Although the control heads are sealed to
withstand damage from exposure to moisture,
they are not designed to be submerged.
STEP 1: Mark the location for the Control Head
using the template provided (see pg. 53). Cut the
3" diameter hole.
STEP 2: Place the Control Head assembly into the cutout.
STEP 3: Install Control Head clamps and tighten wing nuts provided. Make
sure Control Head is firmly mounted to console.
Station ID (multiple station applications)
A total of six (6) control stations may be added to the EEC4 system. In a multi-station control system,
all of the control handles are identical from a hardware point of view. However, there is a software con-
figuration that must be completed to designate the "Station Identifier (ID) for each station.
— The basic EEC4 kit includes a control head that is configured for ID#1.
— A part number is available for a "second station" Control Head where the Control Head is
factory configured for ID#2.
— If an additional Control Head is required beyond 2 stations, obtain a "second station" Control
Head and then configure the Station Identifier during system startup.
