Type 150/400 Autopilot System: Installation Guide
EMC, servicing and safety guidelines
•
Raymarine equipment should be serviced only by authorized
Raymarine service technicians. They will ensure that service
procedures and replacement parts used will not affect
performance. There are no user serviceable parts in any
Raymarine product.
•
Some products generate high voltages: never handle the
cables/connectors when power is being supplied to the
equipment.
•
When powered up, all electrical equipment produces
electromagnetic fields. These can cause adjacent pieces of
electrical equipment to interact with one another, with a
consequent adverse effect on operation. In order to minimize
these effects and enable you to get the best possible performance
from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the
installation instructions, to enable you to ensure minimum
interaction between different items of equipment, i.e. ensure
optimum Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC).
•
Always report EMC-related problems to your nearest Raymarine
dealer. We use such information to improve our quality standards.
•
In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the
equipment from being affected by external influences. In general
this will not damage the equipment but it can lead to spurious
resetting action, or momentarily may result in faulty operation.
