through wizard, you can manually adjust any setting (

page 12

).

NOTE

: Depending upon the configuration of the autopilot, certain 

settings may not appear.

Setting

Description

Speed Source Setup Verify 

Tachometer

Allows you to compare the 

RPM readings on the GHC 

10 with the tachometers on 

the dashboard of your boat.

Speed Source Setup Planing RPM

Allows you to adjust the 

RPM reading on the 

GHC 10 at the point your 

boat transitions from 

displacement to planing 

speed. If the value does not 

match the value on the GHC 

10, use the arrows to adjust 

the value.

Speed Source Setup Low RPM 

Limit

Allows you to adjust lowest 

RPM point of your boat. If 

the value does not match 

the value on the GHC 10, 

use the arrows to adjust the 

value.

Speed Source Setup High RPM 

Limit

Allows you to adjust the 

highest RPM point of your 

boat. If the value does not 

match the value on the GHC 

10, use the arrows to adjust 

the value.

Setting

Description

Rudder Gains

Low Speed 

Gain

Allows you to set the rudder 

gain for low speeds.

This setting applies to the 

vessel when operating below 

planing speed.

If you set this value too 

high, the autopilot may 

be overactive, attempting 

to constantly adjust the 

heading at the slightest 

deviation. An overactive 

autopilot can cause excess 

wear and tear on the drive 

unit (

page 12

).

Rudder Gains

Low Speed 

Counter

Allows you to set the rudder 

gain counter-correction for 

low speeds.

This setting applies to the 

vessel when operating below 

planing speed.

If you set this value too 

high, the autopilot may 

be overactive, attempting 

to constantly adjust the 

heading at the slightest 

deviation. An overactive 

autopilot can cause excess 

wear and tear on the drive 

unit (

page 12

).

Rudder Gains

High Speed 

Gain

Allows you to set the rudder 

gain for high speeds. 

This setting applies to the 

vessel when operating 

above planing speed.

If you set this value too 

high, the autopilot may 

be overactive, attempting 

to constantly adjust the 

heading at the slightest 

deviation. An overactive 

autopilot can cause excess 

wear and tear on the drive 

unit (

page 12

).

Rudder Gains

High Speed 

Counter

Allows you to set the rudder 

gain counter-correction for 

high speeds.

This setting applies to the 

vessel when operating 

above planing speed.

If you set this value too 

high, the autopilot may 

be overactive, attempting 

to constantly adjust the 

heading at the slightest 

deviation. An overactive 

autopilot can cause excess 

wear and tear on the drive 

unit (

page 12

).

NMEA Setup

NMEA 

Checksum

If the connected NMEA 

0183 GPS unit incorrectly 

calculates checksums, you 

may still be able to use 

it if you turn this setting 

off. When set to off, data 

integrity is compromised.
