Hi, I have Autohelm 1000 that was very good companion for a number of years, but has developed a fault recently. Would you still have the schema documents? I'd rather save the old one I have than buy a new one. I like the old design and there is a cost thing as well...

Cheers

Milan

Help? It's a gold mine...exactly what I needed. A few hours and a
couple of test leads should help me scavenge or repair the other
Autohelm 1000 as I am guessing that the only difference between the
old 800 model and my two examples is output power. Also, your PDF
scans of the manual for the 800 is superior to the Raymarine one,
which was indifferently done. Even the text file is helpful, esp. if I
farm out the Frankenstein aspects of the job to someone brighter than
me with a soldering iron.

BTW. I will be closing (what is left of) this site. I recommend downloading
all or anything you want. I will eventually set up a new site but not sure
where or when this will happen. In the mean time All are welcome..

Thanks so much, Steve. I d/led the stuff of interest to me, but I
would highly recommend this folder to anyone with older Autohelm
models. Electrons are cheap, but a new autopilot can cost thousands
when sometimes it's just a tiny part that's on the fritz.
