Garmin GHP Reactor40 SBW Standard Corepack

The Garmin GHP Reactor 40 SBW Standard Corepack is the core hardware set for Garmin's Reactor 40 steer-by-wire autopilot system -- the electronics package a boatbuilder or installer combines with a compatible steer-by-wire steering system (such as SeaStar Optimus EPS, Yanmar Marine ZT 370 stern-drive electronic power steering, or ZF 2800 Pod Drives) to add full autopilot capability to a boat that already steers electronically rather than hydraulically. 'Standard' denotes the base corepack configuration rather than a bundle that already includes a GHC autopilot controller -- Garmin also sells versions of this corepack paired with a GHC 50 display for customers who want the control head included.
At its heart is a compact course computer built around a solid-state 9-axis attitude and heading reference system (AHRS), which reads the boat's heading, roll and pitch and issues steering commands over the boat's NMEA 2000 backbone so autopilot data can be shared freely with chartplotters and other instruments. The corepack supports up to three GHC controllers on a single Reactor 40 system and covers both powerboat and sailing autopilot modes -- heading hold, wind hold, tack and jibe, step turns, and more. The course computer itself is compact and rugged: roughly 91.4mm (3-19/32in) in diameter, weighing about 159g (5.6oz), rated to IEC 529 IPX7 waterproofing in a fully gasketed, high-impact plastic case, and operable from -15C to 55C -- built to be mounted out of sight in a helm or lazarette rather than at the dash.
