Power Supply; Cabling And Socket Installation - Raymarine ST3000 Owner's Handbook Manual

38
Having selected the best mounting site, secure the mounting socket to
a convenient wooden or glass fibre surface using the self tapping
screws provided.
The mounting surface should not be more than 10° from vertical. This
will allow correct compass operation with the boat heeled at an angle
of up to 40°.

Cabling and socket installation

Both power and SeaTalk data are supplied to the control unit via a
custom waterproof plug and socket. The plug comes ready assembled
and the socket can be mounted in the cockpit area adjacent to the
autopilot. The control unit supplies power to the wheel drive unit via
a cable plugged into the underside of the control unit.

ST3000 Wheel Drive Autopilot - Owner's Handbook
The wheel pilot requires its own dedicated power supply – it
cannot source its power from SeaTalk.
The power supply should be taken directly from the boat's central
distribution panel and protected with a 12 A fuse or equivalent
circuit breaker.
