GHP 10V Installation Instructions 7
Installation Procedures
After you have completely planned the GHP 10V installation on your
boat, and have satisfied all the mounting and connecting considerations
for your particular installation, you can begin mounting and connecting
the components.
CCu Installation
To install the CCU, you must mount it to your boat ( page 7 ), connect it
to the Autopilot Gateway ( page 7 ), connect it to a NMEA 2000 network
( page 9 ), connect it to the alarm ( page 7 ), and connect it to the yellow
CCU signal wire on the GHC 10 ( page 7 ).
Installing the CCu Mounting Bracket
Before you can mount the CCU, you must select a location and
determine the correct mounting hardware ( page 5 ).
The CCU bracket has two portions, the mounting portion and the
securing portion.
1. Cut out the mounting template provided on
page 17 .
2. Tape the template to the mounting location.
If you are installing the CCU on a vertical surface, install the
mounting portion of the bracket with an opening
➊
at the bottom.

3. Drill pilot holes at the three mounting locations.
4. Use screws
➋
to secure the mounting portion of the CCU bracket.
Securing the CCu in the CCu Bracket
1. Connect the CCU interconnect
cable and the NMEA 2000 drop
cable to the CCU.
2. Place the CCU in the mounting
portion of the CCU bracket with
the wires hanging straight down
➊
.
3. Place the securing portion of the
bracket over the ball and snap
it into the mounting portion of
the bracket, starting with the
two arms
➋
that do not have the
thumbscrew
➌
.
4. With the cables hanging straight
down, connect the arm with the thumbscrew.
The cables must hang straight down for the CCU to accurately read
your heading.
5. Hand-tighten the thumbscrew until the CCU is held firmly in the
bracket.
Do not overtighten the thumbscrew.
Connecting the CCu
1. Route the five-pin connector end of the CCU interconnect cable to
the location where you plan to access the Volvo multilink bus
( page 7 ).
2. Connect the CCU interconnect cable to the Autopilot Gateway after
you have installed the gateway.
3. Route the wires from the bare-wire portion of the cable to the CCU
interconnect cable.
• Route the orange and blue wires to the location where you plan
to install the alarm ( page 7 ).
If the cable is not long enough, extend the appropriate wires with
28 AWG (.08 mm
2
) wire.
• Route the yellow wire to the location where you plan to install
the GHC 10 ( page 8 ).
If the cable is not long enough, extend the yellow wire with 22
AWG (.33 mm
2
) wire.
4. Route the red and black wires to the battery. This is the primary
power input to the CCU.
alarm Installation
The alarm audibly alerts you to important GHP 10V events.
To install the alarm, you must mount it to your boat (
page 7 ) and
connect it to the CCU ( page 7 ).
Mounting the alarm
Before you can mount the alarm, you must select a mounting location
( page 5 ).
Secure the alarm with cable ties or other appropriate mounting
hardware (not included).
Connecting the alarm
1. Route the alarm-cable to the bare-wire end of the CCU interconnect
cable.
If the cable is not long enough, extend the appropriate wires with 28
AWG (.08 mm
2
) wire.
2. Connect the cables, based on the table below.
alarm Wire
Color
CCu Interconnect Cable Wire Color
White (+) Orange (+)
Black (-) Blue (-)
3. Solder and cover all bare-wire connections.
autopilot Gateway Installation
Notice
Do not connect the CCU interface connector on either the CCU
interconnect cable or the Autopilot Gateway to a NMEA 2000 network.
The Autopilot Gateway allows the GHP 10V Autopilot System to
communicate with the Volvo EVC system and steer the boat.
Mounting the autopilot Gateway
1. Mount the Autopilot Gateway near the location where you plan to
access the Volvo proprietary multilink bus.
Ensure the Volvo interface cable reaches the location where you
plan to access the Volvo multilink bus.
2. Secure the Autopilot Gateway with cable ties or other appropriate
mounting hardware (not included).
