8.3.2 Optional MMB-84 Flush Mount Bracket
A GPS receiver and antenna is located in the front panel of the
GX1400GPS
and
GX1400GPS/E
. In many cases the radio may be flush mounted, however
before cutting holes to flush mount the radio it is recommended to temporarily
connect the radio to power and turn on in the location where it will be flush
mounted to confirm it is able to receive a GPS location on it’s display. If the
radio is not able to receive a location, a GPS Chart plotter with NMEA 0183
output or the optional
SCU-38
External GPS Antenna may be needed to receive
GPS satellite signals.
1. Use the template (page 93) to mark the location where the rectangular
hole is to be cut. Confirm the space behind the dash or panel is deep enough
to accommodate the transceiver (at least 4.72" (120 mm) deep).
There should be at least 1/2 inch (1.3 cm) between the transceiver’s heat
sink and any wiring, cables or structures.
2. Cut out the rectangular hole and insert the transceiver.
3. Fasten the brackets to the sides of the transceiver with the lock washer nut
combination, so that the mounting screw base faces the mounting surface.
4. Turn the adjusting screw to adjust the tension so that the transceiver is tight
against the mounting surface.
