compass, and dene north on the GHP 12 through the GHC 10 without

Notice

Providing an incorrect drive-unit-voltage, clutch-voltage, or max-

current value for your non-Garmin drive unit can damage your drive

unit.

NOTE: If you adjust any of these values or run any of these tuning

procedures, you must re-run the autotune procedure (page 16).

1. Turn on the GHC 10 using the advanced conguration power-on

procedure (page 16).

2. From the Heading screen, select Menu > Setup > Dealer Autopilot

Conguration > Steering System Setup > Drive Unit Type >

Other.

3. Select an option:

• Select Generic Tune to re-run the tuning procedure you

completed during the dockside wizard (page 13).

• Select Drive Unit Voltage to set the drive-unit voltage according

to the specications provided by your drive-unit manufacturer.

• Select Clutch Voltage to set the clutch voltage according to the

specications provided by your drive-unit manufacturer.

• Select Drive Unit Max Current to set the drive-unit rated

current value according to the specications provided by your

drive-unit manufacturer.

• Select Advanced Tuning to perform high-level drive unit

adjustments (page 16).

• Select Restore Defaults to reset the non-Garmin drive unit to

default values.

You must perform the generic tune procedure if you reset your

drive unit to the default values.

Notice

Perform these procedures only if you completely understand the

concepts of drive-unit speed and error tolerance as dened below.

Incorrectly setting these values can damage your drive unit, drain

your battery at a faster-than-normal rate, or result in poor autopilot

performance.

For almost every non-Garmin drive-unit installation, the generic

tuning procedure performed during the dockside wizard is sufcient

to calibrate the drive unit to the GHP 12. Use the advanced tuning

procedures only if you would like to make slight adjustments to the

performance of the drive unit.



The speed of the drive unit determines how quickly it reacts to

commands from the autopilot.

If you set the speed value too low, the drive unit will appear slow and

take a long time to respond to commands from the autopilot.

If you set the speed value too high, the drive unit will react too quickly

and can force the rudder to the stops at a high rate of speed, potentially

damaging the drive unit or rudder stops as well as draining your battery

at a faster-than-normal speed.

1. From the Heading screen, select Menu > Setup > Dealer Autopilot

Conguration > Steering System Setup > Drive Unit Type >

Other > Advanced Tuning > Tune Speed.
