GHP 10 Installation Instructions 5



Before installing the GHP 10 autopilot system, you must plan where all

the components will be located on your boat. Temporarily place all the

components where you intend to install them. Read these considerations

and consult the diagrams on pages 7–9 before you begin planning your

installation.

NOTE: There is an installation checklist on the last page of these

instructions. Remove the last page and refer to the checklist as you

proceed through the GHP 10 installation.

The GHP 10 components connect to each other and to power using the

included cables. Ensure that the correct cables reach each component

and that each component is in an acceptable location before mounting

or connecting any components.

• Mount the Shadow Drive horizontally and as level as possible, using

cable ties to rmly secure it in place.

• Mount the Shadow Drive at least 12 in. (0.3 m) away from

magnetic material such as speakers and electric motors,

including the autopilot pump.

• Install the Shadow Drive closer to the helm than to the pump.

• Install the Shadow Drive lower than the helm, but higher than the

pump.

• Avoid making loops in the hydraulic lines.

• Do not install the Shadow Drive directly to the ttings at the back of

the helm. Install a length of hose between the tting at the helm and

the Shadow Drive.

• Do not install the Shadow Drive directly to a hydraulic T-connector

in the hydraulic line. Install a length of hose between a

T-connector and the Shadow Drive.

• In a single-helm installation, do not install a T-connector

between the helm and the Shadow Drive.

• In a dual-helm installation, install the Shadow Drive between

the pump and the lower helm, closer to the helm than to the

pump.

• Install the Shadow Drive in either the starboard steering line or the

port steering line. Do not install the Shadow Drive in the return

line.

• Do not use Teon tape on any hydraulic tting. Use an appropriate

thread sealant such as Loctite Pro Lock Tight multipurpose

anaerobic gel, part number 51604, or equivalent, on all pipe threads

in the hydraulic system.

• The ECU can be mounted on a at surface facing any direction.

• Mounting screws are included with the ECU, but you may need to

provide different screws if the supplied screws are not suitable for

the mounting surface.

• The ECU must be located within 19 in. (0.5 m) of the drive unit.

• The ECU must not be mounted in a location where it will be

submerged or exposed to wash-down.

• The ECU power cable connects to the boat battery, and it can be

extended if needed (page 10).

• ECU units with a serial number prior to 19E002748 are only

compatible with 12 Vdc systems.

ECU units with a serial number of 19E002748 or later are

compatible with both 12 Vdc and 24 Vdc systems.

• The cables connecting the pump to the ECU cannot be extended.

• Ensure the appropriate pump has been correctly installed on your

boat.

NOTE: If you have questions about the appropriate pump for your boat,

contact your local Garmin dealer or Garmin Product Support for more

information.

• If possible, use larger inside diameter hydraulic hoses on your

steering system.

• Mount the pump closer to the cylinder to limit the length of the hose

runs.

• Eliminate unneeded hydraulic ttings in the hydraulic ttings.

• The CCU must be mounted in the forward half of the boat, no

higher than 10 ft. (3 m) above the waterline.

• The CCU must not be mounted in a location where it will be

submerged or exposed to wash-down.

• The CCU must not be mounted near magnetic material,

magnets (speakers and electric motors), or high-current wires.

• The CCU must be mounted at least 24 in. (0.6 m) away from

movable or changing magnetic disturbances such as anchors, anchor

chain, wiper motors, and tool boxes.

• A handheld compass should be used to test for magnetic interference

in the area where the CCU is to be mounted.

If the handheld compass does not point north when you hold it in

the location where you intend to mount the CCU, there is magnetic

interference. Choose another location, and test again.

• The CCU can be mounted below the waterline if it is not in a

location where it will be submerged or exposed to wash-down.

• The CCU bracket must be mounted on a vertical surface or under a

horizontal surface, so that the connected wires hang straight down.

• Mounting screws are included with the CCU, but you may need to

provide different screws if the supplied screws are not suitable for

the mounting surface.

• The CCU/ECU interconnect cable connects the CCU to the ECU

and is 16 ft. (5 m) long.

◦ If the CCU cannot be mounted within 16 ft. (5 m) of the ECU,

replacement and extension cables are available (page 4).

◦ The CCU/ECU interconnect cable must not be cut.

• The CCU/ECU interconnect cable connects the CCU to the GHC 20

with a single yellow signal wire (page 11). The autopilot system

does not power on if this connection is not made.
