A radar unit should only be installed by a qualified marine technician, as potentially lethal high
voltage is present along with heavy rotating parts. There is a transmit interlock that prevents
radar transmissions if the scanner is not rotating. However, a high voltage remains for a period of
time after the system is turned off. If you are not familiar with this type of electronics, consult
with a trained service or installation technician before attempting to service any part of the
equipment.
Installation includes
• mechanical mounting
• electrical wiring
• configuring the display or network system to work with the radar
• adjusting the radar for proper performance.
Don't take any shortcuts, and follow these instructions carefully.
