System Packs. All-in-one box autopilot solutions
with corepack, control head and drive unit conveniently

Behind the autopilot control head is the intelligence
hub of the system, the Corepack. Consisting of an
advanced course computer, fluxgate compass and rudder
feedback, the Corepack is an integral part of the
autopilot system.
Corepack components:
Course Computer
The course computer is the intelligence behind your
autopilot system. It includes a powerful microprocessor,
programmed with all the steering know-how we've gained
over many years and hundreds of thousands of boats.
The course computer performs the main course keeping
function and also houses the electronic control circuitry
for the drive unit and power amplifier. NMEA inputs
and outputs enable it to operate easily with equipment
from other manufacturers. A SeaTalk interface provides
connection to the control head and communication with
other Raymarine devices.
Fluxgate Compass
The fluxgate compass module houses a state-of-the-art
electronic compass mechanism, capable of tracking
your boat's heading with incredible accuracy. The
mechanism is gimballed, enabling it to handle pitch
and roll movements up to +/-35o. The fluxgate compass
connects directly to the course computer. It mounts
on a bulkhead below decks on most boats; if yours
is a steel-decked boat, the compass will be mounted
above decks, out of the reach of magnetic interference.
Rudder Reference
Transducer
This transducer performs a vital role too: it tells
the course computer the precise position of your boat's
rudder at all times. the rotary model is most commonly
required; the linear model is used for hydraulic outboard
steering systems. The rotary model is mounted adjacent
to the rudder stock, while the optional linear model
is mounted on the bullhorn ram of outboard engines.
