1.1 .l CONTROL UNIT
The control unit is common to all installations
and is provided with six metres of multi-core
cable with pre-connected plugs and sockets to
connect to the drive unit. It houses the main
control circuit PCB together with the automatic
course following compass system. The control
unit case is splash proof, but not watertight, and
is, therefore, intended for mounting in a dry and
protected position. Two sockets are provided
on the rear case for connecting the drive unit
and remote control system.

CONTROL UNIT
Rotary controls for course alteration, rudder
response and sea state are grouped on the
control unit facia, together with the push-button
primary working controls. A secondary gain
control is inset into the rear case to allow
adjustment of the system's rudder response
range to match the widely differing steering
characteristics of both planing and
displacement vessels. The control unit is
suitable for use on 12 volt systems.
