A Brief
The Distribution Box is the heart of the system and every
Overview
thing connects to this. It contains the computer section that
reads the data from the sensors, i.e. the rudder position
from the Rudder Feedback Unit, the vessel’s heading from
the Compass. It reads the helmsman’s orders from the
Autopilot Control or a Navigator, then calculates, using the
sea state and configuration settings and moves the rudder,
via the Drive Motor to maintain a course.
The Distribution Box contains customised software (618700
V1.0) for connecting a Propilot 700 system.
A link is fitted between Port B and power on the Windvane
Port. The switch on the Light Duty Supply must be located
near the Propilot 700 control.
