INTRODUCTION
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The H3000 Pilot fully integrates with the H3000 instrument system, both
in terms of style and performance. The instrument system transmits sensor
information via the B&G Fastnet network to the ACP Pilot computer unit.
The Pilot computer processes the sensor data and then sends signals to the
rudder drive system (linear ram, rotary drive or hydraulic pump) to steer
the vessel on the desired course. The complex learning algorithms used in
the Pilot computer ensure that the steering performance is optimised for
the sea and weather conditions, and quickly responds to any changes that
may occur.
Control of the Pilot is via the keys on any one of the dedicated Graphical
Pilot Displays (GPD). Each display acts as a master allowing control of
the Pilot from any station.
H3000 Pilots are available with a wide range of powerful and reliable 12V
or 24V dc rudder drive units suitable for boats of over 7m (23ft). The ACP
(Advanced Control Program) Pilot computers are supplied in two
specifications ACP1 or ACP2 (Advanced Control Programming)
depending on the size of vessel, power requirements and options in use.
The H3000 Pilot can be used for both sailing and power boats that have a
H3000 System installed.
