PILOT
725 INSTALLATION & SERVICING MANUAL
Installing
your
Propilot
725
Once
the
Compass
Sensor
is
installed
the
transit
screw
in
the
base
of
the
unit
should
be
shortened
or
removed.
The
compass
does
not
have
to
physically
align
with
the
bow
of
the
vessel
because
it
will
be
‘electronically’
aligned
later
during
the
Installation
Settings.
The
Automatic
Deviation
Correction
routine
is
explained
later
in
the
Sea
Trials
section.
Further
instructions
on
the
location
of
the
compass
sensor
are
included
with
each
compass
sensor
despatched
from
Cetrek’s
factory.
Autopilot
This
should
be
installed
in
a
position
convenient
for
the
Control
helmsman
to
operate
it.
These
units
must
be
flush
mounted
to
maintain
their
weatherproof
quality.
If
the
front
panel
of
this
unit
is
removed
the
gasket
must
be
replaced
to
maintain
the
watertight
seal.
To
order
the
gasket
quote
part
number
132-150.
Rudder
The
Rudder
Feedback
Unit
is
connected
directly
to
the
Rudder
Feedback Unit
Arm,
which
may
be
a
tiller,
quadrant
or
tie
bar,
of
the
steering
system.
It
may
be
necessary
to
construct
a
mounting
base
for
this
unit.
As
the
steering
gear
is
often
exposed
and
in
an
area
which
is
used
for
stowage,
ensure
that
the
Rudder
Feedback
Unit
cannot
be
jammed
by
ropes,
buckets,
fenders
etc.
You
can
mount
the
Rudder
Feedback
Unit
on
either
side
of
the
Rudder
Stock
as
changing
the
"Phasing"
so
that
the
Feedback
Unit
indicates
Port
and
Starboard
correctly
is
done
electronically.
This
procedure
is
described
later,
in
the
Installation
Settings.
