Power/Data cable considerations
Before mounting the HS80/MX575C consider the following regarding power/data cable
routing:
•
Cable must reach an appropriate power source
•
Cable may connect to a data storage device, computer, or other device that accepts GPS data
•
Avoid running the cable in areas of excessive heat
•
Keep cable away from corrosive chemicals
•
Do not run the cable through door or window jams
•
Keep cable away from rotating machinery
•
Do not crimp or excessively bend the cable
•
Avoid placing tension on the cable
•
Remove unwanted slack from the cable at the HS80/MX575C end
•
Secure along the cable route using plastic wraps
Warning:
Improperly installed cable near machinery can be
dangerous.
Mounting the HS80/MX575C
This section describes how to flush mount or pole mount the HS80/MX575C. Keep the
following in mind when planning your installation:
•
SIMRAD does not supply mounting surface hardware or a mounting pole. You must supply
the appropriate hardware or mounting pole required to complete HS80/MX575C installation.
•
You do not necessarily need to orient the antenna precisely as you can enter a software offset
to accommodate for a heading measurement bias due to installation.
Flush mounting the HS80/MX575C
The bottom of the HS80/MX575C contains eight holes (two sets of four holes) for flush
mounting the unit to a flat surface (Figure 2-7). The flat surface may be something you
fabricate per your installation, an off-the-shelf item (such as a radar mounting plate), or an
existing surface on your vessel.
Figure 2-7: Flush mounting holes on bottom of HS80/MX575C
Complete the following steps to flush mount the HS80/MX575C:
1.
Determine the desired location and proper orientation for the HS80/MX575C.
See “Mounting orientation” on page 8 for information on determining the desired
orientation.
2.
Use the supplied template or photocopy the section of the HS80/MX575C that contains
the eight mounting holes (see Figure 2-7) for use as a template to plan the mounting hole
locations. Use the inner four holes or the outer four holes per your installation.
If using a photocopy make sure it is scaled one-to-one with the mounting holes on the
bottom of the HS80/MX575C.
3.
Mark the mounting hole centers on the mounting surface.
