Connecting the anchor winch
Most anchor winches are connected as shown below.
To find out which wire is which, use a voltmeter. Turn on the power of the windlass
(but don’t press any buttons) and measure the voltage between the ship’s ground
and the 3 pins of the windlass switch. The one that has +12 or +24V is the center one
and has to be connected to the red and black wires. Then measure the voltage on
the remaining wires by pressing the windlass button on the dashboard to find out
which wire is powered when you press the up or down buttons.
Be careful: the windlass will move when you press the buttons!
Connection for both anchors are the same.
To select which anchor is active (on the remote there is only one pair of IN/OUT
buttons) press both the (IN and OUT) buttons simultaneously for 0.5s on the
transmitter. It will beep twice for the first anchor and 4 times for the second anchor.
NOTE: On the transmitter, together with the beep, also the battery LED will blink 2 or
4 times depending on which windlass is selected.
In DockControl please select if Single or Double
anchor module is installed and used.
Direction of the buttons can be reversed for each
anchor.
Note : White and yellow wires must be left
unconnected.
