The selection of the steering cable entry/exit port does not have a preference. To
provide more flexibility for routing the steering cable, the entry/exit port
arrangement can be reversed. If ports are reversed, the steering direction will
also be reversed. The Simrad autopilot software will automatically compensate
for this.

When planning an installation, it is recommended that you
follow 3 steps:
• Determine mounting site for the drive unit.
• Determine mounting site for the connection kit.
• Determine routing path for the steering cable.

Determine Mounting Site for Drive Unit

The mounting site should provide adequate
space to accommodate the drive envelope
including the entry and exit points for the
steering cable. The drive can be mounted at
any angle. See detailed graphics of drive
