GHP 10 Installation Instructions 

17

adjusting the autopilot Gain Settings

NOTE:

 When you manually adjust the rudder gain (or counter gain), 

make relatively small adjustments, and adjust only one value at a time. 

Test the change before making additional adjustments.
1.  Enable the advanced configuration procedure (

page 17

).

2.  On the GHC 10, select 

Menu

 > 

Setup

 > 

Dealer Autopilot 

Configuration

 > 

Autopilot Tuning 

Rudder Gains

.

3.  Select an option:

•  Select 

Low Speed

 or 

High Speed

 and use the arrows on the 

GHC 10 to adjust how tightly the rudder holds the heading and 

makes turns at low speed or high speed.
If you set this value too high, the autopilot may be overactive, 

attempting to constantly adjust the heading at the slightest 

deviation. An overactive autopilot can cause excess wear and 

tear on the drive unit, and drains the battery at a faster-than-

normal rate.

•  Select 

Low Speed Counter

 or 

High Speed Counter

 to adjust 

how tightly the rudder corrects the turn overshoot. If you set this 

value too high, the autopilot can overshoot the turn again when 

attempting to counter the original turn.

4.  Test the autopilot configuration.
5.  Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the GHP 10 performance is satisfactory.

Reducing the Risk of ECu Drive Circuit overload

If you receive an 

Error: ECU Drive Circuit Overload. See manual 

for tips on reducing load

 error message, use these tips to help reduce 

the load:
•  Ensure the appropriate pump has been correctly installed on your 

boat.

•  If possible, use larger inside diameter hydraulic hoses on your 

steering system.

•  Mount the pump closer to the cylinder to limit the length of the hose 

runs.

•  Eliminate unneeded hydraulic fittings in the hydraulic fittings.
•  If overloading occurs during the autotune procedure, skip the 

procedure and manually tune the autopilot.

•  Increase the rudder rate limiter setting to slow the fluid rate.
•  Reduce rudder gain to limit pump activity.

adjusting the Rudder Rate Limiter

If the 

ECU Drive Circuit Overload. See manual for tips on reducing 

load

 error message continues to appear, you may need to adjust the 

rudder rate limiter.

NOTE

: Complete rudder rate adjustments only at the dock or while 

your boat is not moving.

NOTE

: If you adjust the rudder rate limiter, you must perform the 

autotune procedure.
1.  Enable the advanced configuration procedure (

page 17

).

2.  On the GHC 10, select 

Menu

 > 

Setup

 > 

Dealer Autopilot 

Configuration

 > 

Autopilot Tuning 

Rudder Rate Limiter

.

3.  Select 

Continue

.

Autopilot takes control of the rudder.

4.  Use the arrows on the GHC 10 to adjust the speed of the limiter.

•  0% is the is the default speed for the rudder rate limiter.
•  Lower rudder rate limiter numbers allow the rudder to move 

faster between the right rail and left rail.

•  Lower rudder rate limiter numbers increase the running current. 
•  Higher rudder rate limiter numbers decrease the running current.

5.  Select 

Done

.

6.  Test the rudder rate limiter settings.
7.  Repeat steps 2–6 until rudder rate limiter performance is 

satisfactory.

8.  Perform the autotune procedure. 

advanced Configuration Procedure

Advanced configuration options are not available on the GHC 10 under

running the wizards, if you do not feel the GHP 10 is working correctly, 

you can run the wizards again at any time. To access the wizards, enable 

the advanced configuration procedure (

page 17
