SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
The operator and installer must read the applicable safety instructions before attempting to
install or operate the equipment.
DANGER
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
will result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided,
can result in minor or moderate injury.
Warning, Caution
Mandatory Action
Prohibitive Action
DANGER
Wear a safety belt and hard hat when working on the antenna unit.
Serious injury or death can result if someone falls from the radar antenna
mast.
WARNING
Radio Frequency Radiation Hazard
The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy which can be harmful,
particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance
while the radar ius in operation or eexpose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close
distance. Distances at which RF radiation level of 100, 50 and 10 W/m 2 are given in the table
below.
Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a close distance in front of the wheel house, your
administration may require halt of transmission within a certain sector of antenna revolution.
This is possible. Ask your FURUNO representive or dealer to provide this feature.

1. MOUNTING
NOTICE
Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant
or contact spray to coating or plastic
parts of the equipment.
Those items contain organic solvents that
can damage coating and plastic parts,
especially plastic connectors.
1.1
Antenna Unit
Mounting considerations
• The antenna unit is generally installed either on top of the wheelhouse, on the radar mast,
or on a suitable platform. Locate the antenna unit in an elevated position to permit
maximum target visibility.
• A line of sight from the antenna unit to the bow of the ship should hit the surface of the
sea in not more than 500 m or twice the ship’s length, depending which value is smaller,
for all load and trim conditions.
less than 500 m or twice the ship’s length
• Mount the antenna unit so that any blind sectors caused by objects (mast, etc.) are kept
to a minimum. No blind sector should exist in arc of the horizon from right ahead to 22.5°
aft of the beam to either side (see Figure 1 below). Also, individual blind sectors of more
than 5°, or the total arc of both blind sectors of more than 20°, should not occur in the
remaining arc (Figure 2). Note that any two blind sectors separated by 3° or less are
regarded as one sector.

1. MOUNTING
• Install the antenna unit away from interfering high-power energy sources and other
transmitting radio antenna.
• Keep the lower edge of the antenna unit above the safety rail by 500 mm or more.
• Two antenna units should be mounted as below:
more than 20
more
than 1 m
• No funnel, mast or derrick should be within the vertical beamwidth of the antenna unit in
the bow direction, especially zero degrees ±5°, to prevent blind sectors and false echoes
on the radar picture.
• It is rarely possible to place the antenna unit where a completely clear view in all
directions is available. Thus, you should determine the angular width and relative bearing
of any shadow sectors for their influence on the radar at the first opportunity after fitting.
• Locate a direction finder antenna clear of the antenna unit to prevent interference to the
direction finder. A separation of more than two meters is recommended.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the antenna unit is placed too close to the
magnetic compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation
of the magnetic compass.
• Do not paint the radiator aperture, to ensure proper emission of the radar waves.
• The antenna base is made of cast aluminum. To prevent electrolytic corrosion of the
antenna base, use the seal washers and corrosion-proof rubber mat and ground the unit
with the ground wire (supplied).
• Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the aerial
performance and hot gases may distort the radiator portion. The antenna unit must not be
mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C.
• Leave sufficient space around the unit for maintenance and servicing. See the antenna
unit outline drawing for recommended maintenance space.

1. MOUNTING
Assembling the antenna unit
The antenna unit consists of the antenna radiator and the antenna unit chassis, and they
are packed separately. Fasten the antenna radiator to the antenna unit chassis as follows:
1. For the XN20AF, XN24AF, attach two guide pins to the underside of the antenna
radiator.
2. Remove the waveguide cap from the radiator bracket. The cap may be discarded.
3. Coat the waveguide flange with anticorrosive sealant as shown below.

7.
Coat fixing holes for the antenna radiator with anticorrosive sealant.
Grease the O-ring and set it to the O-ring groove of the radiator flange.
Set the antenna radiator to the radiator bracket.
Coat hex bolts M8x40 (for XN-20AF or XN-24AF) or hex bolt M8x35/ flat washer/spring
washer (for XN-12AF) with anticorrosive sealant and use them to loosely fasten the
antenna radiator to the antenna unit chassis.

2. WIRING
Wiring consideration
• To lessen the chance of picking up electrical interference, avoid where possible routing
the signal cable near other onboard electrical equipment (radars, transmitting radio
antennas, etc.) Also avoid running the cable in parallel with power cables. When crossing
with other cable, the angle should be 90°to minimize the magnetic field coupling.
• The signal cable run between the antenna and processor units is available in lengths of
15 m (standard), 30 m and 50 m. Whatever length is used it must be unbroken; namely,
no splicing allowed. Use the signal cable as short as possible to minimize attenuation of
the signal.
• The radar should be connected to an emergency power source, as required by SOLAS
II-1.

Changing AC Power Specification of Processor
Unit
To change AC power specification between 100 VAC and 220 VAC, add or remove jumper
connector P108 on the PWR board 03P9339 and change the fuse on the processor unit
according to ship’s mains as shown in the table below. The figures below and on the next
page show the location of the fuse and the jumper connector on the PWR board. Also,
adjustment of the overvoltage detection circuit is required.
Note: To change from 200 VAC to 100 VAC, locally prepare the jumper connector, referring
to the figure shown on the next page (VH8P connector housing is fitted at J108).

How to adjust the overvoltage detection circuit:
1. Add or remove the jumper connector P108 and change the fuse.
2. Rotate R21 fully clockwise on the PWR board.
3. Connect a variable transformer between ship's mains and the input power terminal board
TB-1 of the processor unit.
4. Adjust the variable transformer output (i.e., input voltage to the processor unit) as follows.
For 100 VAC set: 144 VAC
For 220 VAC set: 288 VAC
5. Turn on the radar and rotate the R21 counterclockwise gradually until the overvoltage
detection circuit functions (i.e., power supply cuts off).
6. Lower the output voltage of the variable transformer and confirm that the radar
automatically turn on with a voltage lower than 142VAC or 284VAC.
7. Gradually increase the output voltage of the variable transformer and confirm that the
overvoltage detection circuit functions at 144V or 288VAC of the variable transformer
output.
8. Assemble and connect the processor unit.

Heading Alignment
You have mounted the antenna unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the bow.
Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should appear on the
heading line (zero degrees).
In practice, you will probably observe some small bearing error on the display because of
the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the antenna unit. The following
adjustment will compensate for this error.

Note 2: In the dual radar display, a guard zone set on the main radar is also accommodated on
the external radar. When the position of the antennas for the main and external radars
is different and the No. 2 guard zone is set on a close-in range, the on-screen guard
zone may be shifted slightly from both the main radar antenna reference and external
radar antenna reference. Accordingly, on the dual radar display, the actual guard zone
area may be shifted slightly. For example, the guard alarm sounds against a target
which has almost entered the guard zone. The further the range the smaller the shift;
however, there is little shift with the No.1 guard zone (3-6 mile range, fixed). Further, do
not set a guard zone such that it straddles a boundary line of the dual radar sector.
A guard zone cannot be set while the dual radar display is active. Set a zone before
