The SI-TEX SP-120 System with Virtual Feedback and 9CI Pump is a marine autopilot control platform designed for vessels requiring reliable, hands-off directional stability in open water. This integrated system combines the SP-120 display and control head with a SI-TEX 9-axis rate compass to provide continuous course maintenance across varying sea conditions. The virtual feedback architecture enables precise rudder response without the complexity of multiple separate sensor installations, making it a practical choice for offshore fishing, extended cruising, and commercial marine operations where autopilot redundancy and accuracy directly impact safety and operational efficiency.
The system's 9-axis compass integration measures both rate of turn and heading orientation, allowing the autopilot to anticipate and correct course deviations before they compound. The included 9CI pump provides proportional rudder actuation—delivering appropriate steering authority scaled to the vessel's drift and sea state rather than binary on-off commands. The SP-120 display presents real-time course data, steering mode status, and system diagnostics on a dedicated helm-mounted control head. To complete the full autopilot installation, the SP-120 requires connection to a compatible rudder actuator system (sold separately) that translates electronic steering commands into physical rudder movement.
This configuration is suited for vessel operators who demand continuous course-holding capability without manual helm input during transit, fishing, or holding position. Commercial marine crews, offshore charter operations, and serious recreational boaters appreciate the SP-120's modular architecture—virtual feedback reduces sensor clutter while the proportional pump delivers fuel-efficient steering compared to older, less responsive systems. The 6.3-pound control head integrates compactly into existing helm installations, and the system's diagnostic readout aids troubleshooting underway or at dock.
