Sleipner Installation Guide
For S-Link External Switch Interface
The 8730 external switch interface allows the use of mechanical foot switches or other normally open switches to control a S-link bow thruster. In
addition it allows for connecting the 8980/8985 radio remote control.
The 8730 sends proportional thrust on the S-link bus. This is 70% as default. This value can be changed on an PJC212, PJC211, PJC222 or PJC221
panel. See manual of the panel for more details.
If you have two thrusters bow and stern, then you need two 8730. One 8730B for bow and one 8730S for stern. You can change instance of 8730 B
& S with a panel, see manual for panels for how to changing instance of 8730 B & S
IMPORTANT
This interface will only work with Sleipner thrusters with a S-link control system.
WARNING
DO NOT connect any other control equipment to the S-link controlled products except Sleipner original S-link products or via a Sleipner
supplied interface product made for interfacing with other controls. Any attempt to directly control or at all connect into the S-link control
system without the designated and approved interface, will render all warranties and responsibilities for the complete line of Sleipner
products connected void and null.
