(DG) EV1 sensor Location

[West32]

I just got my new EV150 autopilot and I am planning where I should put the EV1 Sensor. The boat is a 1999 Sea Ray 370 Express Cruiser.

Any idea where the EV1 should go? The old Autopilot compass was below deck under the steps. Should I put it there?

Please let me know what your thoughts are and or if you know where people are mounting them.
Thanks in Advance

Hi West32

Thank you for your enquiry.

In general, (there are very few exceptions), the EV1 can be mounted in the same place as the fluxgate compass, it is subject to the same external magnetic influences as the fluxgate compass.
