HAND REMOTE HR22
The HR22 is a remote control for use with the
TP22, TP32 and WP32 cockpit autopilots.
The keypad operates in the same manner as
the autopilot keypad - to engage the autopilot,
press the STBY/AUTO key (Fig 2). The LED
will light, indicating that the autopilot is activated. To disengage the autopilot, simply press
STBY/AUTO again.
While in Standby mode, the Port ( ) and
Starboard ( ) keys can be used to “power
steer” the vessel using the autopilot (Fig 3).
In Auto mode, press Port ( ) or Starboard ( )
once to alter course by 1º (Fig 4). Press and
hold the key to adjust the course by 10º.
To Autotack, press and hold the TACK key,
and while keeping it held, press Port ( ), or
Starboard ( ) (Fig 5), depending on which
direction the vessel is tacking.
NOTE - If in Sail To Wind mode, the vessel
will tack onto the same apparent wind bearing,
but on the opposite tack. In this mode, the
autopilot will only allow a tack in the correct
direction, and the facility is disabled if sailing
downwind.
NOTE - Access to Nav mode is not available.

SIMRAD HR22

Installation & Wiring
The HR22 connects to the autopilot via the SimNet high-speed bus network. A bulkhead socket and a
three-way joiner is supplied, to enable the HR22 to connect to the SimNet bus, and be easily unplugged
when not in use.
The rear port of the bulkhead socket connects to the three-way joiner via an interlink cable. The SimNet
cable from the Tillerpilot socket assembly (Fig 6), or from the Wheelpilot junction box (Fig 7), also plugs
into the three-way joiner. The third port is used to connect to the rest of the SimNet bus (if fitted) via an
interconnecting SimNet cable (available as an optional accessory). The HR22 is plugged into the SimNet
port on the front of the bulkhead socket. It can also plug into any available SimNet port on the bus.
NOTE – If the pilot and HR22 are not connected to other SimNet equipment, 12v power must be supplied
using the SimNet power cable provided (+12v DC [Red] and 0v [Black]).
NOTE – A weatherproof plug is provided to protect the front of the bulkhead socket when the HR22 is
not in use.
