Installation Procedures
1.1 Introduction
The Volvo Penta IPS Autopilot System consists of an IPS S3G Course Computer
core pack and an IPS DPU.
The IPS S3G core pack contains a Course Computer and a fluxgate compass. There
is no need to fit a drive unit or rudder feedback unit. This system can only be used
with a Volvo Penta IPS system.
The IPS Autopilot system is compatible with ST6001, ST7001 and ST8001range of
autopilot control units. Raymarine wireless controllers, the S100 or
SmartController can be fitted as optional extras.
This handbook will guide you through the installation of your IPS DPU and the
connections that you will need to make to the other parts of the IPS system.
