1.1 Introduction
The TP20 & TP30 Tillerpilots from Simrad are suitable
for a wide variety of tiller steered sailing yachts up to
12.8M (42 Ft) in length.
Combining highly sophisticated electronics with
advanced software and a powerful mechanical drive,
it is capable of providing reliable and accurate steer-
ing performance under a variety of different condi-
tions with minimal current consumption.
The Tillerpilots have been designed so that, while they
represent the state of the art in marine autopilots with
many advanced features, they remain very simple to
operate, using only five keys to access all functions.
Sophisticated functions available include Sail To Wind
Mode and Nav Mode (Steer To GPS) using external
equipment linked directly to the Tillerpilot through
the inbuilt NMEA0183 interface.
There is also the option to operate the Tillerpilot
remotely, either using the simple HR20 Hand
Remotee. For more details, refer to the separate
instruction card supplied with this unit.
To ensure the best results from your Tillerpilot it is
essential that the unit is installed correctly. Please
read this manual thoroughly before installation.
