Compass mounting
CAUTION:
You must mount the fluxgate compass on a vertical bulkhead,
with the cable exiting at the base.
1. Hold the compass against the mounting location.
2. Mark the four mounting holes, then remove the compass.
3. Drill four pilot holes using a 3 mm (
1
/
8
in) drill bit.
4. Making sure the cable exits at the bottom of the compass, secure the fluxgate
compass using the self-tapping screws provided (No 8 x
3
/
4
in, pan-head).
Note:
Stick the supplied warning label near to the compass, where it is clearly visible.
Compass cabling
1. Route the cable to the steering station, taking into account the EMC installa-
tion guidelines (
page 18
).
2. Secure the cable at regular intervals with suitable cable clips/ties.
Note:
You will plug the moulded connector into the
COMPASS
socket when installing
the SportPilot (see page 42). You will also need to attach the supplied suppression ferrite
behind the bulkhead as close as possible to the SportPilot.
