Common Question of SI-TEX Rudder Feedback
What does this feedback unit include?
The SI-TEX Inboard Rotary Rudder Feedback includes a 50-foot cable but does not include linkage. It reports rudder position to a compatible autopilot system. Confirm linkage type, mounting, connection, calibration, control unit, and marine autopilot controller compatibility before installation.
Does it include linkage?
No. The listing specifically states that linkage is not included. Confirm the required mechanical linkage, mounting hardware, cable routing, rudder travel, connection type, and calibration procedure before purchase. Correct installation supports accurate autopilot steering response.
Is it an anchor component?
No. The rotary rudder feedback unit monitors steering position and does not operate a gypsy, drum, chain, or anchor rope. It is not an electric anchor windlass. Verify separate equipment for marine anchor retrieval.
