Introduction | AP70/AP80 Installation Manual
Introduction
Wheelmark approval
The AP70 and AP80 systems are produced and tested in accordance with the European
Marine Equipment Directive 96/98. This means that these systems comply with the highest
level of tests for non-military marine electronic navigation equipment existing today.
While the AP70/AP80 may be installed on vessels not needing to comply with the Marine
Equipment Directive, those requiring compliance must have one control unit set-up as a
“master unit” in order for the installation to be approved.
Navico has no responsibility for the incorrect installation or use of the autopilots, so it
is essential for the person in charge of the installation to be familiar with the relevant
requirements as well as with the contents of this manual, which covers correct installation of
the autopilot system.
Note: AP70 systems are not wheelmark approved when used with an AC70 computer.
Note: When a complete system (e.g. an autopilot system) is wheelmark approved, only the
main unit(s) in the system identifi es the wheelmark approval (wheelmark symbol on the label
or reference in the software). This to avoid the misunderstanding that all optional units in a
system retain their wheelmark approval even if they are installed in a not approved system.
The type examination certifi cate (MED-B) for the wheelmarked system lists all optional
equipment that is part of the wheelmark approval. The EC Declaration of Conformity do also
show which units that are part of the approval.
Spare parts and accessories
List of spare parts and accessories for the AP70/AP80 system can be found on our websites.
System overview
The AP70/AP80 systems include several modules that need to be mounted in diff erent
locations on the vessel and that need to interface with at least three diff erent systems on the
boat:
• The boat’s steering system
• The boat’s electrical system (input power)
• Other equipment onboard
It is important to become familiar with the confi guration of the system prior to beginning the
installation. Refer to illustrations on page 6 onwards.
