I am ready to install Raymarine ev 100 wheel pilot
. The harness from the wheel actuator has a green and blue wires that go to the ACU 100. On the ACU 100 there is a + and - . Which wire
color is the+ and which is the - ?.
Also, when installing the P70, the manual says it has to be 2 feet from a compass. All the u tube I watch for that system, the P70 controller is literally on the compass.
Thanks for the help

Doesn’t matter. If it turns the wrong way reverse them. It’s a 50/50 crap shoot so I always end up reversing things.

Once you get the unit up and running the configuration is easy. Follow the procedure. It will guide you thru the process. Take the boat out and away from everything and test the unit. You will soon be giving the machine a name.

And when he says “better half” that is a euphemism for “The one that is perpetually late.” “Drive to fast over speed bumps” smells better than us.
