MPC Display Panel Installation
Each display panel is supplied with an external alarm buzzer to provide audible alerts in the
event of a fault or at the end of certain timed cycles.
If you want to connect an additional buzzer, which can be heard in a remote location, use on-
ly the buzzer units supplied by Spectra Watermakers, as the display buzzer terminal is limited
to 20 mA max and an excessive load may damage the MPC or display panel.
Connect the buzzer RED wire to the terminal POSITIVE, connect the buzzer BLACK
wire to the terminal marked –NEGATIVE on the back of the remote display panel.
This buzzer output terminal is
20mA MAX current limit!
DO NOT CONNECT POWER TO
THESE TERMINALS
The Catalina 340 Z ships with a Vacuum Florescent Display (VFD). The display brightness can
be adjusted using the programming function on page 74.
There are two jacks on the MPC control board, so an additional panel can be installed on a
single machine, and commands to the system can be entered at either.
The display must be mounted in a protected location, out of direct sunlight, and away from
spray or dripping water.
The display panel connects with the supplied 50-foot cable to the connector on the MPC con-
trol box, marked DISPLAY. Route the 50’ cable for MPC display through the boat to the display
location. Be careful not to damage the connector or get it wet. Plug this into the back of the
remote display. Do not substitute a different type of cable! Contact the factory if you need
longer or additional cables.
