- In this video I install the Raymarine EV-150 autopilot in my parker 2320. The install is pretty straight forward however, there are several extra parts you will need. Below are the items I that were not included but needed for installation:
1. Seastar hydraulic fluid and fill hose
2. Sitex auto pilot hose kit from amazon www.amazon.com...
3. NMEA 2k to Seatalk NG adapter
4. 3 double male adapters to connect pump to autopilot hose kit.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you for the demo Mr. Gio, that was very helpful. BIG MAHALO!!!
Best autopilot installation video I have ever seen. Thanks so much. It made my installation so much easier after watching this.
Thank you!! I’m glade it helped!
Cheers for the video. im about to do the same for my boat really handy just to see the basics as I haven't dont anything like that before.
great video. im planning on installing the same system soon. this will save me a ton of time hunting down hoses and adapters. thanks for sharing. I feel the same about myself making videos lol. I think it came out great.
Thanks for doing the vid. I did find it very helpful, appreciated the link to finding the hydraulic hoses as well. Nice!
This cleared up everything I was unsure about. Solid information. Thanks.
Glad it helped!
Great video!
Nice one brother! slick rick
Thanks for the video and descriptions. We're thinking about replacing our existing (originally great, but problematic now) S1000 with the EV-150, and it looks like a good upgrade. I'll comment back if we do, and if the existing hydraulics will work with the EV-150. Thanks!
Thanks for the video brother.
10:30 I simply used the 2 90 deg fittings that are in the back of the steering helm and put them on the pump. The kit from Sitex comes with one straight fitting for the return line reservoir . Didn't need to go to Home Depot for 3 extra fittings for the 150 with kit..
Great idea!
Thanks man.
Just ordered the EV 100 for my lund, curious how well it works with the lowrance elite fs 9 or if it will. Not a big deal as the head unit offers the main functionality that I was looking for.
Thanks for the video. Can you control the AP exclusively from the MFD or do you have to use the unit that comes with it?
You can control it from the mfd. that’s what I’ll be using in the Tower
Hi sir. The ev 150 need some kind of piece in the outboard to measure de shaft angle? OR the only things you need are inside de box kit?. Thanks a lot from Argentina
Hola! Gracias por ver el video! You can buy a rudder position sensor or “smart stick” to get rudder position feedback. I currently don’t have one and it works fine but it’s something I’ll probably add eventually
Thanks a lot
What are the double male fittings you got to connect the pump and hose kit ? Do you have a link or exact model ?
I’m sorry I don’t but it is a 3/8” NPT double male adapter
Nice video. I am looking at the 2320 as my next boat. Can’t find one local… how much headroom do you have in the pilot house?
Thank you! Yeah they’re awesome boats I ended up buying mine in New Jersey. I’m 6’2” and can stand straight up in the cabin.
@@Tonygiooffshore thank you!
Great video 👍. Can you also send a link to where you can buy the 3 x double male adapters to connect pump to autopilot hose kit?
Thank you! Unfortunately I just had to go to the hardware store to find the right ones. I’ll see if I can find them online and post the link
We’re you able to get the right male adaptors? I can’t figure out which ones to buy
Does anybody out there know of an autopilot system that works for cable/ hydraulic cylinder inboard outboard system? 1988 Thompson Carrera 24' 350 V8 mer cruiser
Hi from England. Can I ask, do you power the control unit with 12v or will it get power from the NMEA through the seatalk connections?
Hi there!! Thanks for watching. It’s supplied by 12v.
I only have an NMEA2k system in my boat and will have no other raymarine equipment aside from this autopilot. Do I need to order the seatalk network switch to make the autopilot work? Or did you only need that because of your raymarine MFD?
Yeah your NMEA 2k will work I only used it because a lot of my components are already tied into the sea talk network
Where do the green wires go coming out of ACU?
I just had green lying around so I used those as power.
Did you have to install check valves so the pump wouldn't move the steering wheel?
No, how the T’s are set up it bypasses the steering wheel. But, when the AP is active the steering wheel does not control steering
So I will not be linking my unit to anything other than the head unit that comes with, so if I'm thinking correctly I shouldn't need the nemma network right? Thanks again
No unfortunately you will still need the seatalkNG (or NMEA with adapters) network. It’s the only way each component will communicate with each other. So for example the ACU (brain) tells the pump which corrections to make. The only way the ACU gets it’s info if via the EV-1 sensor and P70 controller which feed the info via the seatalkNG network. I know it seems complicated but it’s only a few parts and it’s very easy once you get your hands on it.
@@Tonygiooffshore thank you
What size fittings did his use 1/4” or 1/2”? Also what size hydraulic line comes with the octopus kits
Sorry for the delay it’s 5/16” hose with 1/4” fittings
Having trouble getting the male to male fittings where did you get yours.
I actually ended up finding them at Home Depot. They are 3/8” compression fittings. Hope that helps I also had a rough time tracking them down
Thank you
In the 150 Manuel the are calling the fittings 1/4 BPT to 1/4 NPT male adapter my sea star hydrolic helm is 1/4 NPT was you system ORB .
Yeah mine is ORB
Hello, do you have the rudder position sensor installed?
No I don’t, with the outboard I didn’t feel it was necessary
Thanks you!!!
Thanks you!!!
What size hole saw did you use?
Sorry refresh my memory where did I use a hole saw I haven’t watched the video in a while
@@Tonygiooffshore It looked like you used a hole saw to cut the hole in your dash for the control head
I totally forgot that part I’m sorry it was a 3 5/8” hole saw. Thanks for watching
Do you have a Instagram!?
Yeah it’s @Tony.Giovannetti
