Installation Instructions 

Remote Expander (Type 1) 

 

 

The Remote Expander (Type 1), PN 20310017, increases the number of Remote Controls that 
can be used with ComNav’s 1001, 1101, 1201, 2001 and 5001 Autopilots.  The Expander 
allows control of the Autopilot to be taken at any of the Remote Controls connected to it.   

  On the 2001 Autopilot, there are two Remote connectors.  An Expander may be 

connected to either, or both, of the connectors, allowing up to eight Remotes to be 
used.  All the Remotes connected to an individual Expander must all either be a 

tiller 

steering

 type (models 201, 211, 221, 222 or TS-202), or must all be the 

power 

steering (push button)

 type (model 101). 

  The 1001, 1101, 1201 and 5001 Autopilots have one Remote connector, so up to four 

Remotes may be connected to those Autopilots, using the Expander.  All models of 
ComNav Remote Controls, in any combination of types, may be used. 

 

Caution: for the Remote Expander to operate correctly, the Autopilot it is 
used with 
must have the latest firmware.  As of 12 June 2009, the latest 
firmware revision for each of the compatible Autopilot Systems is: 

 

1001:  2.03A 

 

1101:  Head 3.00A, SPU 4.00A 

 

1201:  Head 1.00A, SPU 1.00A 

 

2001:  2.08 

 

5001:  Head 3.01, SPU 2.01
