The S9 steering lever is intended for use together with
e.g. AP45 Autopilot. Several units can be connected in
parallel, but only if configured as alternative 1 (see
next page)
Operation
Activation is achieved by pulling out the lever. The
lever is spring loaded to mid position, and can be used
for starboard or port rudder commands. After
finishing the manoeuvres the lever will be locked
when pushed back to non-operational position.
