Description
You need to set up at least 3 cable connections.
Vision Unit to Processing Unit
The Vision Unit needs to be installed either on top of the mast or signal mast
with no danger of getting harmed (e.g. from the rope of the spinnaker) and a
free view to the front. It comes with a 700 mm long network & power cable and
plug (2 & 8 pin-connectors RMV3). The Processing Unit will be installed within
the boat – so you need to wire a power cable as well as a network cable through
the mast and boat which has the right connectors to the Vision Unit (Amphenol
circular connectors 2 pin & 8 pin) as well as the Processing Unit (TE Mini I/O for
the network cable and Switchcraft hollow plug for the power supply).
Processing Unit to power supply
Make sure you have enough space on your switch panel to make the system
able to be switched on & off. To connect the power supply to the Processing Unit
you need a Switchcraft hollow plug. Check + and – before you plug in the power
supply. Switching “+” and “-“ can damage the system
Processing Unit to boat bus
NMEA 2000 cable to connect your NMEA 2000 compatible boat bus.
Processing Unit to Boat Network – Chart Plotter (Ethernet)
To run OSCAR on an MFD (chart plotter), connect the Processing Unit to the
Boat Network HUB or directly to the MFD. Please check the compatible systems
and MFDs. The necessary cable depends on the system you use (B&G, Garmin,
Furuno, Raymarine….) and can be provided by BSB as an accessory.
