• DO NOT apply the adhesive to the four vent holes near the name plate.
1.4.2 Required tools
The following tools should be prepared in advance for this installation.
1.4.3 How to mount the Antenna Unit
1. Construct a suitable mounting platform, minimum size 260 mm (bow-stern)

240
mm. If corrosive material is used, take necessary anti-corrosion measures.
Note: The mounting platform must be flat, level and firmly secured.
2. Make a cable hole (

25±2 mm) for passing the
supplied antenna cable through the center of
the mounting platform.
Note: The cable hole should be made accord-
ing to the above specifications. An excessive-
ly large hole can result in water leakage.
Alternatively, an excessively small hole can
prevent cable routing.
3. Pass the NMEA 2000 antenna cable through
the hole made at step 2 so the connector of
the antenna cable exits on the upper side of
the mounting platform.
