EMC Installation Guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the
recreational marine environment.
Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised.
Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is
important to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product.
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognized
that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible
conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the
maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment.
ra
tc
op
06
04
/0
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible:
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
• 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).
• 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 equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops
below 10 V in the power supply to our products, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information
and may change the operating mode.
• Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC
performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
• If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be removed. If the ferrite needs
to be removed during installation it must be reassembled in the same position.
Suppression Ferrites
The following illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites used with Raymarine equipment.
Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine.
D3548-6
Connections to Other Equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by
Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the Raymarine unit.
EMC Conformance
Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it is not affected by radio
transmissions, engine starting etc.

LifeTag Installation & Commissioning Guide
Connecting Base Station
The LifeTag system Base Station has to be connected to a 12 V dc power source and to the Alarm
Buzzer:
• Temporary connections are required to enable an initial site survey to be carried out.
• Permanent connections are required when the system is fully installed.
An ancillary switched output is also available from the Base Station. This provides a 12 V output when
an alarm occurs.
The connection procedures are described here once for you to refer
to as necessary, whether you are making temporary connections for
the site survey or making the permanent connections for normal
operation.
To connect your Base Station, ensure the power supply for the Base
Station is switched off, then remove the Base Station cover.

Ensure satisfactory LifeTag coverage
The nominal LifeTag Base Station-to-Tag range is 30 feet (9 meters), so on boats where this
separation is unlikely to be exceeded, the LifeTag system should operate satisfactorily with just one
Base Station, provided it is positioned for optimum performance, as detailed in Figure 3 .
However, system performance can be affected by obstructions (superstructure, decking, bulkheads
etc) so to ensure satisfactory operation, it is strongly recommended you carry out a site survey to
ensure satisfactory system operation, before permanently installing the LifeTag Base Station.
Site survey

To carry out a site survey:
1. Referring to Figure 3 , place the Base Station at the location you intend installing it and temporarily connect it either to Seatalk as described in Figure 5 or to a separate 12 V dc supply via a 5 A
fuse, as described in Figure 6 .
2. Temporarily connect the alarm buzzer to the Base Station, as described in Figure 7 .
3. Switch on the 12 V supply to the Base Station.
4. Take one of the Tags supplied with the Base Station and ensure that the LED briefly flashes GREEN
once every 10 seconds to indicate the Tag is active. If the Tag is not active, press and release the
Tag push button to activate the Tag.
5. Take the Tag to every part of the vessel to which crew members have access, (i.e. every cabin, compartment and all extremes of the deck), to check if an alarm is initiated.
6. Take the appropriate action as detailed for either No alarm or Alarm initiated, below.
ra
No alarm
If no alarms are initiated during the site survey, the LifeTag system is operating satisfactorily with the
Base Station at its current location. Switch off the power, then permanently install the Base Station at
that location, as detailed under Fitting procedures, below.
Alarm initiated
If an alarm is initiated at any time during the site survey
1. Bring the Tag back into range of the Base Station, to automatically cancel the alarm. If the alarm
does not cancel automatically, hold down the Tag button for 5 seconds then release it, to manually cancel the alarm..
2. Reposition the Base Station, then carry out another site survey.
If on-board alarms still occur, you need to install a second Base Station, so that the system comprises
a Master Base Station (the original Base Station), and a Repeater Base Station (the second one).
