- No power is supplied to or from the SimNet bus – the Tillerpilot
must always have its own dedicated power connection
- Use a suitable gauge cable to run from switch panel to the socket
- Connect to the vessel’s switch panel via a 10 Amp fuse or breaker
- Do not fit other electronic or electrical equipment to the supply
cable or “tap into” the supply from a nearby cable – always wire
each piece of equipment to its own breaker in the switch panel
- Ensure all wire ends are tinned, and any connections are well
made. Poor contact will result in loss of thrust from the Tillerpilot
and slower speed of response
- If in any doubt, employ a qualified engineer
Installing the TP10
The TP10 Tillerpilot operates from a 12 V DC supply and is connected
to the supply by two wires. Although the cable is supplied with bare
ends, it is recommended that a good quality waterproof plug and
socket is fitted for maximum reliability. A suitable plug and socket
set is available as an optional accessory (part no. SKT100; see “Spares
& accessories” on page 27).
Wire to the electrical supply as follows:
Wire color
Brown + 12 V DC
Blue 0 V
- Use a suitable gauge cable for the run from the socket to the
supply (see previous page)
- Connect to the vessel’s switch panel via a 10 Amp fuse or breaker.
- Do not fit other electronic or electrical equipment to this cable,
or “tap into” the supply from a nearby cable – always wire each
piece of equipment to its own breaker in the electrical panel
- Ensure all connections are well made. Poor contact will result in
loss of thrust from the Tillerpilot and slower speed of response
- If in any doubt, employ a qualified engineer to install the
equipment
