CAUTION:  The DPU is not waterproof and so must be installed in a 

dry location.

The DPU must be positioned below decks in a dry location where:
• It is protected against physical damage.

• It is at least 9 in (230 mm) from a compass.

• It is at least 20 in (500 mm) from radio receiving equipment.

• There is reasonable access for installation and servicing.

Fitting the Data Processing Unit

Fit the Data Processing Unit to a vertical surface, as follows:
1. Remove the outer cover.

            

2. Place the DPU in the required position and mark the position of the fixing 

holes.

3. Using a 1/8 in (3.5 mm) drill, drill a pilot hole for each of the two fixing screws.

4. Screw one of the selftapping screws provided (No 8 x 1 in) into each hole, so 

each screwhead is at least 15 mm from the surface.
