2.2 Choosing a Mounting Location
The J2K100 is mounted between the J1939 network and the NMEA 2000
®
network. Please
consider the following when choosing a mounting location.
1. The J2K100 is waterproof, so it can be mounted in a damp or dry location.
2. The orientation is not important, so the J2K100 can be mounted on a horizontal deck,
vertical bulkhead, or even upside down if desired.
3. The J2K100 is temperature rated to 55°C (130°F), so it should be mounted away from
engines or engine rooms where the operating temperature exceeds the specified limit.
2.3 Mounting the J2K100
Attach the J2K100 securely to the vessel using the included brass mounting screws or other
fasteners as shown in Figure 1 below.
