Warning, Caution Mandatory ActionProhibitive ActionRead these safety instructions before you operate the equipment. Do not open the equipment unless totally familiar with electrical circuits and service manual.Only qualified personnel should work inside the equipment.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 mast.Construct a suitable service platform from which to install the antenna unit.Serious injury or death can result if someone falls from the radar mast.Turn off the power at the mains switchboard before beginning the installation.Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result if the power is left on or is applied while the equipment is being installed.Ground the equipment to prevent electrical shock and mutual interference. Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass.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 is in operation or expose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close distance.Distances at which RF radiation levels of 100 W/m2and 10 W/m2 exist 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 representative or dealer to provide this feature.FR-8065100W/m210W/m2FR-8125FR-8255FR-8045ModelDisplay Unit RDP-154FR-8065 AntennaFR-8125 AntennaFR-8255 AntennaFR-8045 Antenna1.00m1.95m0.65m1.25mPSU-0080.80m 0.50mRSB-0070RSB-0070RSB-0070RSB-0073RSB-0073RSB-00731.90m1.00m1.10m1.85m1.80m0.95m1.20m0.60m0.70m1.25m1.15m0.60mModel Standard SteeringXN-12AXN-13AXN-12AXN-13AXN-12AXN-13AXN-12AXN-13A N/AN/AN/AN/AN/AN/A1.1m1.0m1.9m0.6m0.4m 3.1m4.6m1.7m2.1m1.9m

1. HOW TO INSTALL THE SYSTEM51.2 Antenna Unit InstallationHow to select the location for the antenna unit• The antenna unit is installed either on top of the wheelhouse or a platform on the radar mast. Install the antenna unit where there is a good complete view. Any ob-struction causes blind sectors. For example, a mast with a diameter smaller than the horizontal beamwidth of the radiator causes only a small blind sector. A horizon-tal spreader or crosstrees in the same horizontal plane creates a large obstruction. Install the antenna unit above, or below a horizontal spreader or crosstrees.• You cannot put the antenna unit where there is a completely clear view in all direc-tions. Make sure you check for blind sectors on the radar screen after you have in-stalled the radar.• To reduce the electrical interference, do not run the signal cable near other electri-cal equipment. Also do not run the cable in parallel to power cables.• A magnetic compass gives error if the antenna unit is installed near the magnetic compass. See SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS for the compass safe distances to prevent the interference to a magnetic compass.• Do not apply paint to the radiator aperture. The radar wave cannot be transmitted if there is paint on the radiator.• If this radar is installed on a large vessel, follow the points shown below:• The length of the signal cable between the antenna unit and the display unit is max. 30 m.• The output from a funnel or exhaust vent decreases aerial performance and hot gases can damage the radiator. The antenna unit must not be installed where the temperature is more than 55°C.• The antenna unit can be installed on the bridge, a common mast, or the radar mast.(a) On bridge(c) Radar mast(b) Common mast
