Commissioning S3G and Type 2 Hydraulic Linear Drive - bbayne - 07-02-16 07:38 PM
I have an older S3G Course Computer and a Type 2 Hydraulic Linear Drive. In the Commissioning manual there is a section on setting the drive type. There are 3 drive types; Type 3 (Linear, Rotary, I/O), Type 4 (Hydraulic reversing pump), and Type 5 (Constant running hydraulic pumps).
I'm thinking my Type 2 Hydraulic Linear Drive falls under the category of Type 3 as it is a linear drive. Is this correct?
Are there any other common mistakes or questions people have during the commissioning process of these older units?
Thanks!

Welcome to the Raymarine Forum bbayne,
When used with hydraulic linear drives, the Type 4 (Hydraulic reversing pump) option should be selected.

Thank you! Odd, as it seems more logical to use Type 3. Glad I asked the question.
