7Warnings and cautionsEMC installation guidelinesRaymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations. This minimizes electromagnetic interference between equipment, which could oth-erwise affect the performance of your system.Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.For optimum EMC performance, we recommend that:• Raymarine equipment and the cables connected to it are:Product installationThis equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with the Raymarine instructions provided. Failure to do so could result in poor product performance, personal injury, and/or damage to your boat.Potential ignition sourcesThe equipment in these instructions is NOT approved for use in hazardous/flammable atmo-spheres such as an engine room.Switch off power supplyMake sure you have set the boat’s power supply to OFF before you start installing this product.Unless otherwise stated connect and disconnect equipment only with the power supply switched OFF.High voltageEquipment contains high voltages.Unless otherwise instructed within these instructions do not remove the covers or attempt to access the internal components.Grounding requirementsThis display is not intended for use on “positive” ground boats. The power input cable earth screen connections must be connected directly to the boats ground.RadarThe radar scanner transmits electromagnetic energy. Ensure all personnel are clear of the scanner before switching to Tx (transmit mode)Navigation aidRaymarine equipment is intended for use only as an aid to navigation. You must still ensure that a properly qualified person is acting as navigator at all times and that all applicable maritime regu-lations are adhered to. You must also ensure that all proper judgements and actions are taken to ensure a safe passage. Always maintain a perma-nent watchService and MaintenanceThis product contains no user serviceable components. Please refer all maintenance and repair to authorized Raymarine dealers.Unauthorized repair may affect your warranty.Sun coversTo provide protection against the damaging effects of ultra violet (UV) light, use the sun covers when equipment is not in use.CleaningDO NOT use acid, ammonia based or abrasive products.DO NOT use commercial high pressure washing (jet wash) equipment.
G-Series Installation & Commissioning 8i. At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2 m).ii. More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. This is important to prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have a separate battery.• Raymarine specified cables are used.• Cables are not cut or extended unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.RememberWhere constraints on the installation prevent any of the above recommendations:• Always allow the maximum separation possible between differ-ent items of electrical equipment. This will provide the best conditions for EMC performance for the installation.Suppression ferritesRaymarine cables may be fitted with suppression ferrites. These are important for correct EMC performance. Any ferrite removed to facilitate installation must be replaced in the original position imme-diately installation is complete.• Use only ferrites of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine au-thorized dealers.Connections to other equipmentIf Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a Raymarine suppres-sion ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.Waste Electrical and Electronic Equip-ment Directive The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive requires the recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipment. Whilst the WEEE Directive does not apply to some of Raymarine’s products, we support its pol-icy and ask you to be aware of how to dispose of this product.The crossed out wheeled bin symbol, illustrated above, and found on our products signifies that this product should not be disposed of in general waste or landfill.Please contact your local dealer, national distributor or Raymarine Technical Services for information on product disposal. Water ingressAs it exceeds the water proof rating capacity outlined by standards CFR46 / IPX7, subjecting any Raymarine equipment to commercial high pressure washing equipment may cause subsequent water intrusion and failure of the equipment. Raymarine will not warranty equipment subjected to high pressure washingWarrantyTo register your new Raymarine product, please take a few minutes to fill out the warranty card included in the box or go to:www.raymarine.comIt is important that you complete the owner information and return the card to receive full warranty benefits, including notification of software updates if they are required.

G-Series Installation & Commissioning 324.1 General instructionsCable types and length• Follow the guidelines given in this section to determine appro-priate cable types and length.• Unless otherwise stated use only standard cables of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine.• Ensure that any non-Raymarine cables are of the correct quality and gauge. For example, longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize any voltage drop in a cable.Routing cables• No acute bends. Minimum bend radius of 100mm.• Protect all cables from physical damage and exposure to heat. Use trunking or conduit where possible. Avoid running cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects.• Secure cables in place using tie-wraps or lacing twine. Coil any extra cable and tie it out of the way.• Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deck-head, a watertight feed-through should be used.You should always route data cables:• as far apart from other equipment and cables as possible,• as far away from high current carrying AC and DC power lines as possible,• as far away from antennas as possible.Strain relief• Ensure adequate strain relief is provided. Protect connectors from strain and ensure they will not pull out under extreme sea conditions.Circuit isolationFor installations using both AC and DC current:• Always use isolating transformers or a separate power-inverter to run PC’s, processors, displays and other sensitive electronic instruments or devices.• Always use an isolating transformer with Weather FAX audio cables.• Always use and RS232/NMEA converter with optical isolation on the signal lines.• Always make sure that PC’s or other sensitive electronic devic-es have a dedicated power circuit.Cable shieldingEnsure that all data cables are properly shielded that the cable shielding is intact (e.g. hasn’t been scraped off by being squeezed through a tight area).Schematic diagramWhen planning your connections and cabling, produce a schematic diagram to assist you.EMC installation guidelinesRaymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations. This minimizes electromagnetic interference between equipment, which could oth-erwise affect the performance of your system.Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.Ensure you comply with the EMC guidelines detailed on page 58D10596-1Minimum bend of cable100 mm (4 in) radiusMinimum bend200 mm (8 in)diameter

G-Series Installation & Commissioning 34Power distribution notes:• Raymarine recommend that you have a dedicated distribution panel for your G-Series system.• All GPM400 processor units must be powered from a single breaker or switch, with appropriate circuit protection.• All monitors and ancillary equipment should where possible be wired to individual breakers.Sharing a breakerWhere more than 1 piece of equipment shares a breaker you must provide protection for the individual circuits. E.g. an in-line fuse for each power circuitThe fuse must be of an appropriate type and rating for the load to be protected.Circuit groundingGrounding notes• Use a dedicated earthing plate (e.g. dynaplate) in contact with the water.• Ground cables may be routed to a common point (e.g. within the switch panel. With a single (appropriately rated) copper braid connecting to the earthing plate.• Use flat tinned copper braid, 30 A rating (1/4 inch) or greater. Equivalent stranded wire diameter 4mm or greater.• Keep the length of the earth braid as short as possible.• Installations using both AC and DC current should have a sepa-rate ground circuit for each. See Circuit isolation on page 32.D10164-1+VE barCircuit breakerFuseFuseMonitors and ancilliary equipment wherepossible be wired to individual breakers.Where this not possible an inline FUSE can be used to provide additional portection.-VE barGroundingThe power cable screen and all Ground terminals MUST be connected to ship’s ground.Failure to connect to ship’s ground may cause it, or other on-board electronics to function incorrectly.No positive groundThe G-Series system is NOT intended for use on “positive” ground boats. The power input cable earth screen connections must be connected directly to the boats ground.No ground loopsGround loops may cause galvanic corrosion. Avoid using the ships structure (metal) as an earth point, as this could result in ground loops.

39 Chapter 4: Cables and connectionsScreen resolution and aspect ratioEach GPM will output the same screen resolution to all connected displays.Therefore where multiple displays are connected to a single GPM they should have the same aspect ratio and screen resolution. For example we recommend that wide screen televisions and standard displays are connected to separate GPMs.IP AddressWhen connecting a display to the processor, note its IP address on your system diagram. You will need to refer to this during the com-missioning process. (See Appendix B for sample diagrams.)Selector SwitchRaymarine G-Series displays have a selector switch located by the SeaTalkhs connector. This must be in the UP position for connec-tion to the SeaTalkhs network.3rd party displaysEnsure that any 3rd party (non-Raymarine) displays have electrical isolation between the video connections and power supply (and any other 0 V referenced connection). This is to avoid 0 V loops which can cause interference issues.Marine display cablesThe following cables can be used with marine displays:Cable Part No NotesDVI Connection To ensure optimum signal quality use only Raymarine cables.5 m (16.4 ft)DVI to DVI (digital) cableE0602110 m (32.8 ft)DVI to DVI (digital) cableE06022VGA To ensure optimum signal quality use only Raymarine cables.500 mm (19.69 in)DVI-VGA converterE06053 Required for any VGA connec-tion to the GPM400.1.5 m (4.9 ft)VGA cableR081305 m (16.4 ft)VGA cableR08174 Supplied with Raymarine G-Series Marine Displays.10 m (32.8 ft)VGA cableR0829620 m (65.6 ft)VGA cableR08297Display to SeaTalkhs Required for keyboard control of display functions.1.5 m (4.9 ft)SeaTalkhs cableE550495 m (16.4 ft)SeaTalkhs cableE5505010 m (32.8 ft)SeaTalkhs cableE5505120 m (65.6 ft)SeaTalkhs cableE55052Power1.5 m (4.9 ft)Power cableR08173 Supplied with productCable Part No Notes

G-Series Installation & Commissioning 585.1 General instructionsEquipment locationWhen deciding on the location of system components, consider the following:• Ignition hazards• Ventilation• Mounting surface• Cable entry• EMC installation guidelinesIgnition hazardsVentilationTo ensure adequate airflow:• Ensure that equipment is mounted in a compartment of suitable size.• Ensure that ventilation holes are not obstructed.• Allow adequate separation of equipment.Any specific requirements for each system component are provided later in this chapter.Mounting surfaceEnsure equipment is adequately supported on a secure surface.Do not mount units or cut holes in places which may damage the structure of the vessel.Any specific requirements for each system component are provided later in this chapter.Cable entryEnsure the unit is mounted in a location which allows proper routing and connection of cables:• Minimum bend radius of 100 mm (3.94 in).• Use cable supports to prevent stress on connectors.EMC installation guidelinesRaymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations. This minimizes electromagnetic interference between equipment, which could oth-erwise affect the performance of your system.Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.For optimum EMC performance, we recommend that:• Raymarine equipment and the cables connected to it are:i. At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2 m).ii. More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. This is important to prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have a separate battery.• Raymarine specified cables are used.• Cables are not cut or extended unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.Potential ignition sourcesThe equipment in these instructions is NOT approved for use in hazardous/flammable atmo-spheres such as an engine room.
59 Chapter 5: Installation and mountingRememberWhere constraints on the installation prevent any of the above recommendations:• Always allow the maximum separation possible between differ-ent items of electrical equipment.• This will provide the best conditions for EMC performance for the installation.Suppression ferritesRaymarine cables may be fitted with suppression ferrites. These are important for correct EMC performance. Any ferrite removed to facilitate installation must be replaced in the original position imme-diately after the installation is complete.• Use only ferrites of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine au-thorized dealers.Connections to other equipmentIf Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a Raymarine suppres-sion ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.5.2 GPM400 Processor moduleD10100-1Minimum radiusbend of cable(100mm)Minimum ventilationclearance of XXX mmaround total perimeter Cable clipAir vents335 mm (13.2 in)230 mm (9.0 in) 125 mm (4.92 in)
