Simrad WR10 Autopilot Remote, BT1 Base Station, Bluetooth, NMEA 2000 Micro-C, 30 m Range

Overview

The Simrad 000-12316-001 is a WR10 wireless autopilot remote and BT1 Bluetooth base station pack that lets you steer and manage a compatible autopilot from anywhere on board. The remote communicates over Bluetooth with up to 30 m (98 ft) range, while the BT1 base station plugs into an NMEA 2000 network using a Micro-C connector so there is no separate power feed to wire.

Five buttons cover the actions you use most: Standby, Engage, mode, and port or starboard course changes. Tap for 1° adjustments or hold for 10° changes, and use the mode key to switch between Auto and Wind on sailboats or Auto and NoDrift (COG) on powerboats. A multi-colour LED gives quick confirmation when commands are received and warns when the battery is getting low.

This setup suits skippers who move around during docking, fishing, or sail handling and still want direct control of the pilot without staying glued to the helm.

Key features

• Bluetooth link with up to 30 m (98 ft) working range for autopilot control around the boat
• Heading adjustments in 1° steps with a short press, or 10° steps with a long press
• Dedicated Standby and Engage buttons for quick changes between hand steering and autopilot control
• Mode key supports Auto and Wind switching for sailboats, and Auto and NoDrift (COG) switching for powerboats
• BT1 base station connects to the boat’s NMEA 2000 network via a Micro-C plug; no separate power supply is required
• Waterproof BT1 base station with deck or pole mounting options
• One BT1 base station can be paired with up to four WR10 remotes
• Multi-colour status LED for command acknowledgement and low battery indication

Installation and setup

Mount the BT1 base station where it can tie into the NMEA 2000 backbone and where its Bluetooth signal covers the areas you plan to use the remote. Plug the Micro-C connector into an available NMEA 2000 drop, then pair the WR10 remote to the base station. Once paired, the remote sends commands through the network, so you avoid running extra control wiring back to the helm.

Compatibility and fit

The WR10 system is for compatible Simrad autopilot installations that are on an NMEA 2000 network. Common matches include AC12, AC42, NAC-1, NAC-2, and NAC-3 autopilot computers. If your boat has multiple stations or you want more than one handheld on board, the same BT1 base station can support additional WR10 remotes.

Many products sold by Apollo Lighting include a manufacturer's warranty covering defects in materials or workmanship. Warranty terms vary by brand, product category, and model, so eligibility, coverage duration, exclusions, and available remedies are determined by the applicable manufacturer. We recommend reviewing the warranty information provided with your product before installation or use, especially for marine electronics, navigation equipment, lighting, electrical systems, pumps, safety equipment, and other specialized marine products.

If you need warranty service, the claim must follow the process established by the manufacturer, authorized service center, or designated warranty provider. You may be asked for proof of purchase, a serial number, product registration, photos, maintenance or installation records, or other documentation. Apollo Lighting does not determine or modify a manufacturer's warranty coverage or final claim decision, but we are happy to help provide purchase information and direct you to the appropriate manufacturer or warranty resource.

Keep your receipt, product documentation, serial number information, and original packaging when practical. Damage caused by normal wear, misuse, improper installation, insufficient maintenance, corrosion, impact, unauthorized modifications, electrical issues, or operation outside the manufacturer's specifications may not be covered. Warranty claims are separate from standard returns, so a product that has been installed, used, or exposed to marine conditions may no longer qualify for return while still remaining eligible for evaluation under the manufacturer's applicable warranty.
