Configuring the GHP 20 The GHP 20 must be configured and tuned to your boat dynamics and motor configuration. Use the dockside wizard (if applicable) and the sea trial wizard on the GHC 20 to configure the GHP 20. These wizards will walk you through the necessary configuration steps. About the Dockside Wizard Notice If you perform the dockside wizard while your boat is out of the water, provide rudder-movement clearance to avoid damage to the rudder or other objects. You can complete the dockside wizard while your boat is in or out of the water. If your boat in the water, it must be stationary while you complete the wizard. Performing the Dockside Wizard Notice Not all of the steps listed in this section may apply to your boat. If one of the steps listed as "if applicable" does not appear on the GHC 20, proceed to the next step. 1. Turn on the GHP 20. The first time you turn on the GHP 20, you are prompted to complete a short setup sequence on the GHC 20. 2. If necessary, complete the setup sequence. 3. Start the dockside wizard (page 11). 4. If applicable, select the vessel type. 5. If applicable, test the steering direction (page 11). 6. If applicable, select the speed source and verify the tachometer (page 11). 7. Review the wizard results (page 11). Starting the Dockside Wizard This step may not apply to all boats. If it does not appear on the GHC 20, proceed to the next step. 1. After you complete the initial setup, select an option: • If the dockside wizard starts automatically, proceed to step 2. • If the dockside wizard does not start automatically, select Menu > Setup > Dealer Autopilot Configuration > Wizards > Dockside Wizard. 2. Select Begin. Testing the Steering Direction This step may not apply to all boats. If it does not appear on the GHC 20, proceed to the next step. 1. Use the arrows on the GHC 20 to test the steering direction. When you select the right arrow, the rudder should turn so that the boat would steer to the right, and when you select the left arrow, the rudder should turn so that the boat would steer to the left. 2. Select Continue. 3. Select an option: • If the steering test turns the boat in the correct direction, select Yes. • If the steering test turns the boat in the opposite direction, select No. 4. If you selected No in step 3, repeat steps 1-2. Selecting the Speed Source This step may not apply to all boats. If it does not appear on the GHC 20, proceed to the next step. If your steering system sends tachometer information to the autopilot, it will be automatically selected, and no NMEA 2000 tachometer or GPS speed source needs to be selected. Select an option: • If you connected a NMEA 2000-compatible engine (or engines) to the NMEA 2000 network, select NMEA 2000. • If tachometer data is unavailable or unusable, select GPS data as a speed source. ◦◦ When GPS data is used as a speed source, the maximum speed for all vessel types must be configured. • If you did not connect a speed source, select None. ◦◦ If the autopilot does not perform well using None as the speed source, Garmin recommends connecting a tachometer or GPS as the speed source. Verifying the Tachometer This step may not apply to all boats. If it does not appear on the GHC 20, proceed to the next step. With the engine (or engines) running, compare the RPM readings on the GHC 20 with the tachometer (or tachometers) on the dashboard of your boat. Reviewing the Results of the Dockside Wizard The GHC 20 displays the values you chose when you ran the Dockside Wizard. 1. Examine the results of the dockside wizard. 2. Select any incorrect value and select Select. 3. Correct the value. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for all incorrect values. 5. When you are finished reviewing the values, select Done.
