GHP 10 Package Contents and tools
The GHP 10 autopilot system consists of multiple components.
Familiarize yourself with all of the components before beginning
installation. You must know how the components operate together in
order to correctly plan the installation on your boat.
As you familiarize yourself with the GHP 10 components, confirm
that your package includes the items listed below. All the components,
except the hydraulic pump, are included in the GHP 10 core box. If any
parts are missing, contact your Garmin dealer immediately.
Record the serial number of each component in the space provided.
Main Components
The GHP 10 autopilot system consists of five main components: the
Electronic Control Unit (ECU), the Course Computer Unit (CCU), a
hydraulic pump, the Shadow Drive
interface.

CCu

The CCU acts as the brain of the GHP 10. The CCU contains the
sensory equipment used to determine heading. The CCU connects to the
ECU and to the GHC 10 with a single cable. The CCU also connects
to a NMEA 2000 network to communicate with the GHC 10, and to
®
optional NMEA 2000-compatible GPS devices
Serial number

ECu

The ECU connects to the CCU and to the drive unit. The ECU controls
the drive unit based on information from the CCU. The ECU powers
both the CCU and the drive unit.

Hydraulic Pump and Motor
The hydraulic pump (and motor) steers your boat by interacting with
the hydraulic steering system, based on commands you enter using the
GHC 10. The pump is not included in the GHP 10 core package box
because the type of pump you use with your GHP 10 is determined
by the size and type of steering system on your boat. The pump is
in a separate box. For information on installing the pump, see the
installation instructions included in the pump box.
Serial number
Shadow Drive
The Shadow Drive is a sensor you install in the hydraulic steering
lines of your boat. While the GHP 10 is engaged, the Shadow Drive
temporarily disengages the autopilot when you manually take control of
the helm. When you establish a new straight line heading, the Shadow
Drive automatically reengages the autopilot.
Serial number
GHC 10
The GHC 10 is the primary interface used to operate the GHP 10
autopilot system. Using the GHC 10, you engage and steer the GHP 10.
You also set up and customize the GHP 10 using the GHC 10.
The GHC 10 connects to a NMEA 2000 network to communicate
with the CCU. The GHC 10 also connects with optional NMEA
2000-compatible devices such as a GPS device, to use advanced
features of the GHP 10. If NMEA 2000-compatible devices are
not available, you can connect the GHC 10 to optional NMEA
0183-compatible devices instead.
