ComNav 1101 Autopilot INSTALLATION 4 - 15
Mounting ComNav Compass Sensor
The Magnetic Compass Sensor can be mounted to the bottom of the
compass using the brass screw supplied, or it may be bonded
directly to the compass bowl using a suitable adhesive. The Nylon
Washer should be placed between the Compass Sensor and the
bottom of the compass bowl.
Plug the end of the Magnetic Compass Sensor cable into the
“COMPASS” receptacle on the SPU. Ensure that there is sufficient
slack in the cable to allow the compass bowl to tilt and rotate freely
in all directions. If the 3m (10') cable is too short, plug-in Compass
Extension Cables are available in various lengths from your ComNav
dealer. Cutting and splicing the Magnetic Compass Sensor cable is
NOT recommended.
Because the Sensor mounts to the bottom of the bowl, the magnetic
compass may be used as a steering compass if desired.
