Yes. The KA-51B slaving accessory used in the KCS-55A compass system may be located remotely. An optional compensator kit is available for installations where the installer wants to use a different switch/meter arrangement. The compensator kit includes a compensator assembly which is basically the back half of the KA-51B. The kit also includes a mating connector and a special remote mounting plate for the compensator assembly. Mounting the compensator remotely allows the installer to easily adjust the E/W & N/S compensation without removing the KA-51B from the panel.
