Corrosion Blocker
To ensure long life of all parts, apply corrosion blocker to the
pump at least twice yearly.
A marine-rated corrosion blocker should be applied to the pump
after all hydraulic and electrical connections are made and the
hydraulic system has been bled.
Connecting the CCU

Route the connector end of the CCU cable to the ECU and
make the connection.

Route the orange and blue wires from the bare-wire portion
of the CCU cable to the location where you plan to install the

Alarm).
If the cable is not long enough, extend the appropriate wires

NMEA 2000 and the Autopilot Components
If you have an existing NMEA 2000 network on your boat, it
should already be connected to power. Do not connect the
NMEA 2000 power cable to an existing NMEA 2000 network,
because only one power source should be connected to a
NMEA 2000 network.

You can connect the helm control and the CCU through an
existing NMEA 2000 network. If you do not have an existing
NMEA 2000 network on your boat, all the parts needed to build
one are supplied in the autopilot package
NMEA 2000 Network for the Autopilot
To use advanced features of the autopilot, optional NMEA 2000
devices, such as a GPS device, can be connected to the NMEA
2000 network.
If you are unfamiliar with NMEA 2000, you should read the
"NMEA 2000 Network Fundamentals" chapter of the Technical
Reference for NMEA 2000 Products. To download this
document, select Manuals on the product page for your device
at www.garmin.com.
Building a Basic NMEA 2000 Network for the Autopilot
System
If you are installing a NMEA 2000 power cable, you must
connect it to the boat ignition switch or through another in-line
switch. NMEA 2000 devices will drain your battery if the NMEA
2000 power cable is connected to the battery directly.

Connect the power cable to the ignition switch of the boat if
possible, or route it through an inline switch (not included).
NOTE: The braided drain wire (bare) on the NMEA 2000
power cable must be connected to the same ground as the
black wire on the NMEA 2000 power cable.

Connect the NMEA 2000 power cable to one of the T-
connectors.
4
Connect one of the included NMEA 2000 drop cables
one of the T-connectors and to the helm control
5
Connect the other included NMEA 2000 drop cable to the
other T-connector and to the CCU

Connect the male and female terminators
the combined T-connectors.
