MOUNTING OPTIONS

THRU-HULL CABLE FITTINGS
Depending on preference, the Interceptors can be mounted with thru-hull cable fittings above the waterline (A) or below, concealed behind the Interceptors (B).ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control System for Integration -

PROPELLER CLEARANCE
If the boat has an outboard engine or sterndrive, the Interceptors must be mounted with clearance to the propeller(s).ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic Trim

PREPARE THE TRANSOM

ENSURE A FLAT SURFACE FOR EACH INTERCEPTOR
The transom must be relatively flat where the Interceptors are mounted to ensure that they work properly.ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control System
for Integration - TRANSOM

DRILLING TEMPLATE
Start mounting the Interceptors as far outward as possible, although well inside the transom. Continue inwards when installing multiple Interceptors.
Convex bottom: Place two straightedges under the bottom parallel to the boat’s centerline. When placed on the straightedges and pressed against the transom, the template will have the right position. Fix the template on the transom with tape.
Convcave bottom: Place one straightedge at the interceptor center and use one end of the template to find its right center position.ZiPWAKE SERIES S

DISTRIBUTION UNIT

MOUNT THE DISTRIBUTION UNIT
Mount the distribution unit inboard where it is easy to connect it to both interceptors and power supply (battery) e.g. the engineroom or other suitable compartment.
NOTE!
The maximum cable length (including extra cable) from an interceptor to the distribution unit is 6 m (20 ft).ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control
System for Integration - distribution

CONNECT THE DISTRIBUTION UNIT
NOTE!
Detailed wiring diagram is available at the end of this folder.ZiPWAKE
SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control System for Integration -
UNIT

NOTE! The system allows an unpaired Interceptor mounted on the center of the transom. A centerline mounted Interceptor should always be connected to port side 3 to  work properly.

INTEGRATOR MODULE

MOUNT THE INTEGRATOR MODULE
Mount the integrator module on a rigid surface where it is easy to connect it to the distribution unit and other equipment e.g. under the dash or another suitable compartment. If the system will be used with mobile devices, mount the integrator module for maximum signal strength.
NOTE!
0.5 m (1.6 ft) safe distance to magnetic compass. ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic
Trim Control System for Integration - compass

Mounting restrictions
Mount the integrator module within the angles shown in figures 1-3.ZiPWAKE
SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control System for Integration -
restrictions

NOTE!
Make sure the integrator module orientation angle (mounting angle relative the boat’s forward direction) is set as accurately as possible (±5°) during initial start-up.

CONNECT THE INTEGRATOR MODULE
Route the cables between the integrator module, the distribution unit and optional multifunction display (MFD) and/or other equipment. Use optional extension cables if necessary.ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control System
for Integration - MODULE

With the integrator module connected, the system can be controlled from one or several sources e.g. an MFD, a mobile device or a Zipwake control panel.
NOTE! Detailed wiring diagram is available at the end of this folder.ZiPWAKE SERIES S Dynamic Trim Control System for Integration -
Bluetooth

*IMPORTANT
The integrator module requires at least one external GPS signal via MFD, NMEA 2000, Zipwake control panel or Zipwake external GPS.

INITIAL START
Refer to the Operator’s Manual for detailed information about setting up and operating the system.
SETTING UP THE SYSTEM
MULTIFUNCTION DISPLAY (MFD)
The Zipwake application automatically appears on a connected (compatible) MFD. Refer to the MFD manufacturer or manual for detailed information on compatible models and how to launch integration applications such as the Zipwake Integrator Module interface on your MFD model. At first start-up, follow the steps on the MFD to complete system installation.

MOBILE DEVICE
Scan the QR-code from integrator module label to connect to the Wi-Fi network. Scan the QR-code from integrator module label to install the Zipwake App and add it to  the device start screen for future use. Follow the steps in the app to complete system installation

NOTE!
Make sure the integrator module orientation angle (mounting angle relative to the boat’s forward direction) is set as accurately as possible.

INTERCEPTOR CHECK
Carry out an Interceptor Check to verify function immediately after installation and before launching the boat. Repeat this before every launch.
All readings must be green!
Corrective action is always necessary when excessive servo torque levels are observed.
The root cause is usually the flatness of the transom behind the interceptor and/or excess antifouling between its blades.
IMPORTANT
Always use the controls to move the interceptor blades.Never try to force the interceptor blades by hand.

VERIFY FUNCTION ON SHORE

  1. Use the interface to extend the port interceptor
  2. Port side Interceptor(s) should move out
  3. Repeat for starboard side
