External alarm

The SmartPilot sounds all critical alarms from all controllers. On large or

noisy boats you can fit a Raymarine external alarm (part number: Z035,

connected through E85001 interface box) as a high volume audible repeater.

Wind vane (sail boats)

The SmartPilot computer can use wind angle information from a wind vane

or instrument to maintain a course relative to the wind. You can provide wind

angle information to the autopilot system by connecting it to:

• a suitable SeaTalk or NMEA instrument (providing wind angle and speed

information)

• a Raymarine pushpit wind vane (part number: Z159) connected through

an interface box (part number: M81189)

Off switch (S2 and S3 only)

The SmartPilot computer has inputs so you can fit an off switch if required.

By closing a circuit, this switch will turn off the computer power supply.

Connect a suitable off switch to the OFF SWITCH inputs on the computer.

Other manufacturers’ drive units (S2 and S3 only)

If you are connecting another manufacturer’s drive unit, refer to the

specifications (see page 63) for information on the SmartPilot computer’s

drive motor, drive clutch and drive solenoid terminals. Connect the drive unit

to these terminals as necessary. For more information, contact the drive unit

manufacturer.
