Use selection guide for estimates.Once drive is selected, the AC12\/AC42 is easily determined. Good practice is to recommend dealer for confirmation of driveselection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep 4: Complete the System – heading information \u0026amp; rudder feedbackSystem requires heading input. FC40 compass or a RC42 rate gyro. The RC42 rate gyro gives maximum performance (and networked for Radar Overlay\/MARPA)VRF is designed for boats that can’t easily use a feedback unit (like outboards). For boats that can fit an RFU: RF25 is easiest if near a SimNet backbone: 5.5m (18ft) SimNet cableRF300 is easiest if not near SimNet (10m 2-wire lead)LF3000 is an alternate to VRF for outboard boats.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStep 5: Recommend add-onsAdditional networked control heads or control thru NSE, NSO,NSS.
