6.1 Warnings and cautions
Important:
Before proceeding, ensure that you have read and understood the
warnings and cautions provided in the following section of this document:
p.8 — Important information
6.2 General location requirements
Below are important requirements that need to be considered when choosing
a suitable location to install your product.
The product is suitable for mounting above or below decks.
The product should be mounted in a location where it will be:
• Protected from physical damage and excessive vibration.
• Well ventilated and away from heat sources.
• Away from any potential ignition source such as an engine room, near
fuel tanks or a gas locker.
• Easily accessible for operations.
When choosing a location for the product, consider the following to ensure
reliable and trouble-free operation:
• Access — there must be sufficient space to enable cable connections and
to avoid tight cable bends.
• Electrical interference — the product should be mounted far enough away
from any equipment that may cause interference such as engines, motors,
generators, radio transmitters / receivers and cables carrying high power.
• Magnetic compass — refer to the Compass safe distance section in this
document for advice on maintaining a suitable distance between this
product and any compasses on your vessel.
• Mounting surface — ensure the product is adequately supported on a
secure surface. Refer to the weight information provided in the Technical
specification for this product and ensure that the intended mounting
surface is suitable for bearing the product weight. Do NOT mount units or
cut holes in places which may damage the structure of the vessel.
6.3 Compass safe distance
To prevent potential interference with the vessel's magnetic compasses,
ensure an adequate distance is maintained from the product.
When choosing a suitable location for the product you should aim to maintain
the maximum possible distance from any compasses. Typically this distance
should be at least 1 m (3.3 ft) in all directions. However for some smaller
vessels it may not be possible to locate the product this far away from a
compass. In this situation, when choosing the installation location for your
product, ensure that the compass is not affected by the product when it
is in a powered state.
6.4 Viewing angle considerations
As display contrast and color are affected by the viewing angle, It is
recommended that you temporarily power up the display, prior to installation,
to enable you to best judge which location provides the optimum viewing
angle.
For viewing angles for your product refer to the
Technical specification .
6.5 EMC installation guidelines
Raymarine® equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, to minimize electromagnetic
interference between equipment and minimize the effect such interference
could have on the performance of your system.
Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not
compromised.
Note:
In areas of extreme EMC interference, some slight interference may be
noticed on the product. Where this occurs the product and the source of
the interference should be separated by a greater distance.
For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever possible:
• Raymarine® equipment and cables connected to it are:
