Installation instructions
Before you start installing your SportPilot system, use the illustration
to check the parts supplied. Then read through the following
information and the relevant installation sections in this chapter.
Cabling guidelines
• consider how you will run cables to and from each component
• avoid running cables through bilges where possible
• avoid running cables close to fluorescent lights, engines, radio
transmitting equipment etc.
EMC suppression ferrites
We supply the fluxgate compass and power cables with suppression
ferrites fitted. Always use these ferrites supplied by Raymarine.
During installation you should position these ferrites as close as
possible to the SportPilot, just behind the bulkhead. You may need to
remove the ferrites during installation. If you do so, you MUST
reassemble them around the cable when installation is complete.
