An autopilot compensating line may be teed
into an existing compensating line between two helms or directly into a bottom R port on the SeaStar helm.
Connector fittings for compensating line are supplied with fitting kit HF5502.
Note: Fitting kit, part no. HF5502 is
required for additional steering helm(s) or for an autopilot connection.
Fitting kit, part no. HF5502
also contains a solid non-vent plug, which must be used on all helms including the highest helm in a steering
system with a pressurized engine reservoir.
When choosing a power pack, consult the
autopilot manufacturers literature for an appropriate power pack to give the required hard-over time. Note: When
sizing the power pack, you should size it for the volume of the servo cylinder.
