Installation Procedures

1.1 Introduction

The Volvo Penta IPS Autopilot System consists of an IPS S3G Course Computer

core pack and an IPS DPU.
The IPS S3G core pack contains a Course Computer and a fluxgate compass. There

is no need to fit a drive unit or rudder feedback unit. This system can only be used

with a Volvo Penta IPS system.
The IPS Autopilot system is compatible with ST6001, ST7001 and ST8001range of

autopilot control units. Raymarine wireless controllers, the S100 or

SmartController can be fitted as optional extras.
This handbook will guide you through the installation of your IPS DPU and the

connections that you will need to make to the other parts of the IPS system.
