1.2.1 Installation considerations
Follow the points below to select an installation location.
Mount the unit upright.
Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources because of heat
that can build up inside the unit.
Install the unit away from areas subject to water splash or rain.
Be sure the mounting location is strong enough to support the weight of the unit un-
der the continued vibration which is normally experienced on the ship. If necessary
reinforce the mounting location.
Determine the mounting location considering the length of these cables: - Signal ca-
ble from the transceiver unit - control cable from the control unit
Leave sufficient space on the sides of the unit to facilitate maintenance. Also, leave
a foot or so of "service loop" in cables for servicing or easy removal of connectors.
See the outline drawing for recommended maintenance space.
Follow the compass safe distances in the Safety Instructions to prevent interference
to a magnetic compass.
