1. INSTALLATION AND WIRING
• In order to reduce electrical interference, avoid routing the power cable near other
electrical equipment on-board. Also, avoid running the cable in parallel with other
power cables.
• It is not recommended to install the antenna unit on the hardtop of a cabin. Vibra-
tions from the antenna unit will pass through the hardtop and into the cabin.
• It is not recommended to install the antenna unit on the off-center position. The ra-
dar echoes on the display may not be aligned with the actual target’s bearing.
• Select a location that does not allow water to accumulate at the installation location.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the antenna unit is too close to the compass.
Observe the compass safe distances mentioned in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
to prevent interference to a magnetic compass.
• To ensure proper emission of radar waves, do not paint the radiator.
• Referring to the outline drawings at the back of this manual, allow space for main-
tenance and service.
• When this antenna unit is to be installed on a large vessel, consider the following
points:
• The supplied cable assembly runs between the antenna unit and display (or eth-
ernet HUB) and comes in lengths of 10 m, 15 m, 20 m or 30 m. Select the appro-
priate length when purchasing.
• Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the
aerial performance and hot gases may distort the antenna unit. The antenna unit
must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C (131°F).
