ST4000+ Wheel & Tiller Autopilots: Owner’s Handbook
•
As standard, we supply a 1 m (3 ft 3 in) power cable terminated
with
1
/
4
inch spade connectors.
•
You can extend the power cable if required. The following table
shows the minimum acceptable cable sizes:
Note: If you need to extend the cable, you MUST use the correct cable
size.A lighter gauge cable might cause a voltage drop between the
supply and the control unit. This will reduce the power to the drive,
causing slower response to course changes and corrections.
SeaTalk connections
You will not need any SeaTalk cables to install the standard ST4000+
autopilot system.
However, if you want to connect your ST4000+ control unit to other
SeaTalk equipment, you will need to purchase the necessary cables
from your Raymarine dealer.
The following illustration shows the range of available SeaTalk
cables.
