INSTALLATION OF THE DISPLAY UNIT
The installation should be performed in the order specified
in the following sections.
Select a convenient position for the display. The area
should be flat and remain dry at all times.
Drill two 2mm holes to accommodate the stainless steel
self-tapping screws supplied. If desired, also drill a 5mm
hole to allow the cable to pass through the panel. Alternatively,
the cable can be folded so as to exit the unit vertically against
the panel face.
Screw the unit to the panel and connect the wires to the
terminal block provided. Connect the shunt cable to the
display unit as shown on Figure 1, above, using the terminal
block supplied. Be careful to connect the wires exactly as
shown, noting that the black and white wires are joined at the
shunt connection, and are connected separately at the
instrument end of the cable.
It is good practice to run the cables vertically downwards from
the
unit, even if they later have to rise to connect to the vessel's
supplies. Doing so prevents any water that might get onto the
cables from running back along the cables and into the unit.
