42 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:
Cable length Copper area AWG
Up to 2.5 m (8 ft)
Up to 4.0 m (13 ft)
1.0 mm 2
1.5 mm 2
18
16
Up to 6.0 m (19.5 ft) 2.5 mm 2 14
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.
