Important !

 

This interface will only work with Side-Power thrusters with a S-link 
control system. 

Installation:

1.   Connect the (foot)switches according to the wiring diagram(s).

2.   To connect the optional radio remote, first cut the wires close to the plastic 

connector on the “bow” connection lead according to Fig. 1. Strip the wires 

properly and connect to the 8730 according to the wiring diagram(s).

 

Do the same with the “stern” wires if needed. 

3.  Mount the 8730 in a place where it will be protected from direct and con-

ensed water ingress. Use cable ties or other suitable means of mounting.

4.  Plug the S-link Spur cable into the green connector at the rear of interface 

box. Twist the locking ring on the connector clockwise to secure connector.

Installation guide S-link external switch interface 8730          Page 2

The 8730 external switch interface allows the use of mechanical foot switches 

or other normally open switches to control a S-link bow thruster. In addition it 

allows for connecting the 8980/8985 radio remote control.

The 8730 sends proportional thrust on the S-link bus. This is 70% as default. 

This value can be changed on an PJC212, PJC211, PJC222 or PJC221 panel. 

Se manual of the panel for more details.

If you have two thrusters bow and stern, then you need two 8730. One 8730B 

for bow and one 8730S for stern. You can change instance of 8730 B & S with 

a panel, see manual for panels for how to changing instance of 8730 B & S.

DO NOT connect any other control equipment to the S-link controlled products 

except Side-Power original S-link products or via a Side-Power supplied interface 

product made for interfacing with other controls. Any attempt to directly control or 

at all connect into the S-link control system without the designated and approved 

interface, will render all warranties and responsibilities for the complete line of 

Side-Power products connected void and null.
