Mounting the EX-2780 scanner unit
D
Location
The scanner unit is designed for high-pressure water
jet resistance (except for the cable connectors). Select
a place for installation which meets the following im-
portant conditions.
➥
The scanner unit must be near the boat’s center line
and have a good view in every direction. Be sure
there are no objects in the surrounding area which
will interfere with the scanning beam.
➥
Keep the scanner unit away from any exhaust pipes.
Exhaust gas can damage the unit.
➥
When the boat is equipped with a Radio Directional
Finder (RDF) system, keep the scanner unit at least
2 m (6.6 ft) away from any RDF antenna.
• Radiation from the scanner unit can affect the measure
-
ment data of RDF equipment.
➥
The unit should be placed as high as possible on
the boat to obtain best performance with maximum
range.
➥
If you install two or more radar in one boat, install
one above, and the other(s) below.
➥
The
mounting surface must be parallel with the
boat’s waterline.
➥
If the height is insufficient to install the scanner unit,
build a special frame for installation.

Mounting
q
Drill four holes, 12 mm (0.47 in) in diameter using

If the mounting surface or platform is metal, apply
sealing compound around the holes to prevent cor-

Attach the scanner unit to the selected position with
the supplied bolts (M10
