Introduction ‹ Warnings You are responsible for the safe and prudent operation of your vessel. The GHP™ 10/10V/12 is a tool that will enhance your capability to operate your boat. It does not relieve you from the responsibility of safely operating your boat. Avoid navigational hazards and never leave the helm unattended. Always be prepared to promptly regain manual control of your boat. Learn to operate the GHP on calm and hazard-free open water. Use caution when operating the GHP near hazards in the water, such as docks, pilings, and other boats. The GHP autopilot system continuously adjusts the steering of your boat to maintain a constant heading. In addition to the basic heading-hold functionality, the GHP autopilot system allows manual steering and several modes of automatic-steering functions and patterns. Operate the GHP autopilot system using the GHC™ 10 control unit. Through the GHC 10 control unit, you engage and steer, set up, and customize the GHP autopilot system. To install the GHP autopilot system, including the GHC 10 control unit, use the provided installation instructions. Introduction Tips and Shortcuts • Select the STBY key from any screen to place the autopilot in standby mode and return to the Heading screen. • Select to adjust the backlight and color mode. • Hold to turn the autopilot on or off. Note: If more than one GHC 10 device is wired to turn on the autopilot, you must turn off all of the wired GHC 10 devices to turn off the autopilot. • Select or to highlight an option on a menu.
