Common Question of Simrad A2004 Pack
What does no compass mean?
No compass means the Simrad A2004 Autopilot Pack is supplied without a compass or heading sensor. Confirm the required heading source, drive, feedback, wiring, power supply, software, and marine autopilot controller compatibility before installation.
Is it a complete autopilot?
Not necessarily. The pack is identified as no compass, so a compatible heading sensor may be required separately. Confirm included display, processor, drive, feedback, cables, network components, battery, and mounting hardware before purchase or commissioning.
Does it operate a windlass?
No. The A2004 Autopilot Pack controls vessel steering and does not operate a gypsy, drum, chain, or anchor rope. It is not an anchor windlass component. Verify separate controls for marine anchor retrieval.
