7.5 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.
7.6 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:
– At least 1 m (3.3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF
radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 2
m (6.6 ft).
– More than 2 m (6.6 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to
spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.
• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. This is important
to prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have a
separate battery.
• Raymarine specified cables are used.
• Cables are not cut or extended, unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
Note:
Where constraints on the installation prevent any of the above recommendations , always ensure
the maximum possible separation between different items of electrical equipment, to provide the
best conditions for EMC performance throughout the installation.
