Description
The Garmin Reactor 40 Mechanical autopilot with GHC 50 brings GPS-stabilised steering to boats that use a mechanical drive unit or solenoid valve block. The Reactor 40 CCU is a solid-state course computer that senses heading, attitude and rate of turn to hold a course or follow a route accurately, while the supplied ECU 10 drives the steering. It is built for retrofit and mixed installations: it connects to a Garmin or compatible mechanical drive, or to a solenoid drive via the appropriate cable, with a three-terminal potentiometer rudder feedback sensor such as the GRF 10 used on non-Garmin drives. A Shadow Drive sensor can be added on hydraulic steering. Control is through the supplied GHC 50, a 5 in colour touchscreen instrument with NMEA 2000, Wi-Fi and ANT+ connectivity. Dockside and Sea Trial wizards tune performance to your boat.

What drives does this work with?
It works with mechanical drive units and solenoid valve blocks. You connect a Garmin drive directly, or adapt an existing drive or solenoid using the appropriate cable (sold separately).
Is a rudder feedback sensor needed?
If you use a drive not sold by Garmin, you must add a three-terminal potentiometer rudder feedback sensor such as the GRF 10. Frequency-based rudder feedback sensors are not supported.
What is the GHC 50?
The GHC 50 is Garmin marine autopilot instrument, with a 5 in sunlight-readable colour touchscreen and NMEA 2000, Wi-Fi and ANT+ connectivity for wired and wireless control.
Can I use the Shadow Drive feature?
The Shadow Drive sensor is an optional accessory that can only be used on a boat with hydraulic steering. On other steering types an autopilot disable switch is used instead.
What power supply is required?
The ECU 10 connects to a 12 to 24 Vdc supply through the supplied 40 A fuse, and the NMEA 2000 network is powered from a 9 to 16 Vdc source.
