Pin numbers differ from the pinouts in some of the individual manuals (for example the IRIS II manual lists a 6-pole connector with pin 5 UP and pin 6 DOWN). Always check against the connector on your unit and its own manual before wiring.
How the System Is Wired
- The magnetic sensor at the gypsy has a + and − lead back to the chain counter.
- UP and DOWN commands go to the windlass control box terminals B2 and B3, with C as common.
- Supply from + BATT. through a 5A fuse and a switch; − BATT. to the common negative.
- Optional external remote switches are wired in parallel with the chain counter commands.
The sheet is a single drawing with no text instructions: follow the installation manual of your chain counter for fuse, cable size and mounting.
