2. Unpack the template mounting kit and also confirm that all

hardware is present.

Using the instruction template supplied with the kit, trace out the

appropriate screw hole locations for flush mounting including the

display unit opening.

Drill a

l/2’

pilot hole in each opposing corners of the cut-out area.

Using an appropriate saw, cut the outside edge of the

cut-out

line.

Remove the yoke knobs, from the display cabinet. Check that the

unit will fit into the cut-out area.

7. Complete the installation of the DC power cabling, antenna cable,

data input, ground, and any other accessory cables, into the

console.

Slide the unit into the cutout of the panel. A suitable sealant may

be used between the trim ring and console to prevent moisture

entry.

9. Use the hardware supplied in the kit to secure the unit to the

console. Tighten the hardware as necessary. Connect all cables

to the unit rear panel.

2.3.2 Radome Antenna Mounting

Selecting the best location for the Scanner Unit requires careful

consideration. On many small vessels, the unit can be installed on a

mast platform, on an arch, or on bridge structure. Since radar

basically operates at line-of-sight, the unit should be mounted as high

as possible on the vessel to obtain the best long range performance.

The scanning beam should not be obstructed by surrounding large

objects. Try to locate the radome unit where other large structures or

equipment such as searchlights, horns, or masts are not in the same

horizontal plane, otherwise, blind areas and false targets can appear

on the radar screen.

Installation near the top of exhaust stacks must be avoided as damage

to the radome could result excessive heat and the corrosive effects
