ECU Mounting and Connection Considerations
• The ECU can be mounted on a flat surface, facing any direction.
• Mounting screws are included with the ECU, but you may need to provide different screws if the supplied
screws are not suitable for the mounting surface.
• The ECU must be mounted within 0.5 m (19 in.) of the pump.
◦
The cables connecting the ECU to the pump cannot be extended.
• The ECU must be mounted in a location where it will not be submerged or exposed to wash down.
• The ECU power cable connects to the boat battery, and it can be extended if needed (
Power Cable Extensions,
page 12 ).
Pump Mounting Considerations
Consult the hydraulic-layout diagrams in these instructions to help determine the pump-installation location
(
Hydraulic Layouts, page 9 ).
• The pump must be mounted at a location to which you can extend the hydraulic steering lines of the boat.
• The pump should be mounted horizontally if possible.
• If the pump must be mounted vertically, with the hydraulic connections facing upward.
Shadow Drive Sensor Mounting Considerations
NOTE: The Shadow Drive sensor is a device you install in the hydraulic steering lines of your boat. It detects
when you manually take control of the helm and suspends autopilot control of the boat.
• The Shadow Drive sensor must be mounted horizontally and as level as possible, with cable ties firmly
securing it in place.
• The Shadow Drive sensor must be mounted at least 305 mm (12 in.) away from magnetic materials or
devices, such as speakers or electric motors.
• The Shadow Drive sensor should be mounted closer to the helm than to the pump.
• The Shadow Drive sensor should be mounted lower than the lowest helm, but higher than the pump.
• The Shadow Drive sensor must not be connected directly to the fitting at the back of the helm. There must be
a length of hose between the fitting at the helm and the Shadow Drive sensor.
• The Shadow Drive sensor must not be connected directly to a hydraulic T-connector in the hydraulic line.
There must be a length of hose between a T-connector and the Shadow Drive sensor.
• In a single-helm installation, there must not be a T-connector between the helm and the Shadow Drive sensor.
• In a dual-helm installation, the Shadow Drive sensor should be installed between the pump and the hydraulic
T-connector that leads to the upper and lower helm, closer to the T-connector than to the pump.
• The Shadow Drive sensor must be installed in either the starboard steering line or the port steering line.
The Shadow Drive sensor must not be installed in either the return line or the high-pressure line, if applicable.
Alarm Mounting and Connection Considerations
• The alarm should be mounted near the primary helm station.
• The alarm can be mounted under the dashboard.
• If needed, the alarm wires can be extended with 28 AWG (0.08 mm
2
) wire.
NMEA 2000 Connection Considerations
• The CCU and the helm control must connect to a NMEA 2000 network.
• If your boat does not already have a NMEA 2000 network, one can be built using the included NMEA 2000
cables and connectors ( Building a Basic NMEA 2000 Network for the Autopilot System, page 17 ).
• To use the advanced features of the autopilot, optional NMEA 2000 devices, such as a wind sensor, a
water-speed sensor, or a GPS device, can be connected to the NMEA 2000 network.
