Bennett BOLT Control BCI8000 User manual

User Quick-start Guide
BCI Control Installation Instructions
• Before drilling any holes, read the entire instructions.
• Using the included template below, mark the
locations for the 3/16" holes and the 1"
center hole.
• Check carefully to ensure there are no obstructions behind
the console before drilling any holes.
• Using a 1" diameter hole-saw, drill the center hole.
Use a 3/16" drill for the four mounting stud holes.
• Place the helm display keypad onto the console, feeding the
pre-connected wires through the 1" center hole while
inserting the screws into each of the four holes.
• Once the control plate is properly seated, use the 4 white
nylon thumb nuts provided to secure the display.
• Connect the orange wire to the power source for the gauges
at the helm. is will power the control with all other dash
devices.
• Connect the purple wire to the ignition switch (or any 12V
circuit that turns ON and OFF with ignition) for auto tab
retraction. is wire is used to initiate Auto Tab Retraction
(ATR) when the ignition is switched to the OFF position. If
ATR is not desired, this connection may be omitted.
• BCI requires calibration. See reverse side.
Diagnostics Relay Module Installation
• Mount the Diagnostics Relay Module under the helm using
the mounting hardware (2 screws provided) to secure it in
place.
• Plug the (2) 20 ft. wire harnesses (BAW20XX) into the port
and starboard actuators at one end. en plug the other end
of the (2) 20 ft. wire harnesses (BAW20XX) to the port and
starboard plugs on the Diagnostics Relay Module (If cable
length is not long enough, an extension is available).
• Plug the 3 ft. wire harness on the display to the 3 ft. wire
harness on to the Diagnostics Relay Module (If cable length
is not long enough, an extension is available).
• Find a suitable dry location and mount using #8 x 1/2”
screws
• Connect helm control
• Plug the port yellow/blue 20ft. twisted cable (PN#
BAW20XX) to the port connector on the BRC Rocker
Control.
• Plug the starboard yellow/blue 20ft. twisted cable (PN#
BAW20XX) to the starboard connector on the BRC Rocker
Control. Connect ground (black wire) to ground bus
• Connect power (orange wire) to a supply capable of a 20A
(12V), or 10A (24V)
• Press any button on the control to power up (connect battery
or switch battery)
• See reverse side for system startup and wiring diagram

System Startup
e Bolt control system will perform a self-test on power up.
During the self-test, the system will check for the presence of a
working Bolt Actuator connected to both the Port and Starboard
outputs of the relay module. If the system does not detect an
actuator, the upper yellow LED will ash on the side that the error
was detected.
If either of the upper yellow LEDs is ashing, try to move the
actuator using the control to conrm that there is a problem.
Check the electrical connections at the actuator and at the relay
module if an extension cable is used. Verify that the plug and
receptacle at each connection is properly seated.
Turn o power to the system and then repower to cause the
system to go back through a self-test on power up. If the problem
remains, switch the port and starboard output cables at the relay
module. Power the system down and then repower to again cause
the system to go through a self-test. If the problem switches sides
and the opposite Yellow LED is now ashing on the BCI Display,
then the problem is with the actuators. Disconnect the actuator
and inspect the wire terminals. If one of the contacts has been
pushed back in the connector, remove the wedge lock and push
the connector forward until it clicks. Re-install the wedge lock
and retest. For help with connectors visit BennettTrimTabs.com/
ConnectorHelp. Repeat this process for the connection at the relay
module if an extension cable is used.
If the unit continues to fail after checking the connections and the
unit consistently fails on both Port and Starboard connections,
then the problem is likely with the actuator. If the failure remains
with the same LED on the same side (Port or Starboard) after the
actuator connections are changed, then the failure is likely with
the relay module. Contact Bennett Marine Technical Support for
further assistance at [phone].
