4. INSTALLATION
4.1 Display Unit
Mounting considerations
The display unit can be installed on a tabletop
or flush mounted in a panel. When choosing a
location keep the following in mind:
The temperature and humidity should be
moderate and stable.
Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes
and vents.
The mounting location should be well venti-
lated.
Mount the unit where shock and vibration
are minimal.
For maintenance and checking purposes,
leave sufficient space at the sides and rear
of the unit and leave slack in cables.
A magnetic compass will be affected if the
display unit is placed too close to it.
Observe the following compass safe dis-
tances to prevent disturbance to the mag-
netic compass:
Standard compass
FCV-620: 0.3 m, FCV-585: 0.5 m
Steering compass
FCV-620: 0.3 m, FCV-585: 0.3 m

a cutout in the mounting location.
