GHP 10V Installation Instructions 3
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, conrm
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.
The GHP 10V autopilot system consists of three main components,
the Course Computer Unit (CCU), the Autopilot Gateway, and the
GHC
™
20 user control interface.
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 20, and to
optional NMEA 2000-compatible GPS devices (page 9).
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.
The GHC 20 is the primary interface used to operate the GHP 10V
autopilot system. Using the GHC 20, you engage and steer the
GHP 10V. You also set up and customize the GHP 10V using the
GHC 20.
The GHC 20 connects to a NMEA 2000 network to communicate
with the CCU. The GHC 20 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 20 to optional NMEA
0183-compatible devices instead.
The GHP 10V autopilot system includes multiple cables. These cables
connect the components to power, to each other, to an alarm, and to
optional devices.
Notice
Do not connect this cable to a NMEA 2000 network.
This cable connects the CCU to the Autopilot Gateway. A portion of this
cable contains color-coded wires with bare ends. These wires connect
the CCU to the alarm and to the yellow wire from the GHC 20.
The alarm provides audible alerts from the GHP 10V (page 7).
This cable connects the GHC 20 to the yellow wire of the CCU (page
8). This cable can also be used to connect the GHC 20 to optional
NMEA 0183-compatible devices (page 10).
