GHP 10V Package Contents and needed
tools
The GHP 10V autopilot system consists of multiple components, each
sold separately. Familiarize yourself with all of the components before
beginning installation. You must know how the components operate
together in order to correctly plan the installation on your boat.
As you familiarize yourself with the GHP 10V components, confirm
that your package includes the following items. If any parts are missing,
contact your Garmin dealer immediately.
Record the serial number of each component in the space provided.
Main Components
The GHP 10V autopilot system consists of three main components,
the Course Computer Unit (CCU), the Autopilot Gateway, and the
GHC
™
10 user control interface.
CCu
The CCU acts as the brain of the GHP 10V. The CCU contains the
sensory equipment used to determine heading. The CCU connects to
the Autopilot Gateway with a single cable. The CCU also connects
to a NMEA 2000
®
network to communicate with the GHC 10, and to
optional NMEA 2000-compatible GPS devices (
).
Serial number
autopilot Gateway
The Autopilot Gateway allows the GHP 10V autopilot system to steer
the boat through the Volvo
™
steering system. The Autopilot Gateway
connects to the CCU through the CCU interconnect cable and connects
to the Volvo steering system using a proprietary Volvo connector.
Serial number
GHC 10
The GHC 10 is the primary interface used to operate the GHP 10V
autopilot system. Using the GHC 10, you engage and steer the
GHP 10V. You also set up and customize the GHP 10V using the
GHC 10.
The GHC 10 connects to a NMEA 2000 network to communicate
with the CCU. The GHC 10 also connects with optional NMEA
2000-compatible devices, such as a GPS device, to use advanced
features of the GHP 10V. If NMEA 2000-compatible devices are
not available, you can connect the GHC 10 to optional NMEA
0183-compatible devices instead.
