S-1 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING WARNING Do not open the equipment unless totally familiar with electrical circuits and service manual. 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 is in operation or expose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close distance. 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. Distances at which RF radiation levels of 100 and 10 W/m2 exist are given in the table below. Construct a suitable service platform from which to install the antennaunit. Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a closedistance 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. Serious injury or death can result if the power is left on or is applied while the equipment is being installed. Turn off the power at the mains switch-board before beginning the installation. Model DRS4A DRS6A Fire, electrical shock or serious injury can result if the power is left on or is applied while the equipment is being installed. DRS2D DRS4D CAUTION Ground the equipment to prevent electrical shock and mutual interference. Observe the following compass safe distance to prevent deviation of a ma gnetic compass.

MOUNTING 1.1 Mounting Considerations • The radar sensor is generally installed either on top of the wheelhouse or on the radar mast on a suitable platform. Locate the radar sensor where there is a good all-round view. Any obstruction will cause shadow and blind sectors. A mast for instance, with a diameter considerably less than the horizontal beamwidth of the radiator, will cause only a small blind sector, but a horizontal spreader or crosstrees in the same horizontal plane as the radar sensor would be a much more serious obstruction; you would need to place the radar sensor well above or below it. • It is rarely possible to place the radar sensor 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. • A magnetic compass will be affected if the radar sensor is placed too close to it. Observe the compass safe distances mentioned in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS to prevent interference to a magnetic compass. • Do not paint the radiator aperture, to ensure proper emision of the radar waves. • When this radar sensor is to be installed on large vessels, consider the following points: • The signal cable run between the radar sensor and MFDBB, MFD8 or MFD12 comes in lengths of 10 m, 15 m, 20 m and 30 m. • 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 radar sensor must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 70°C. As shown in the figure below, the radar sensor may be installed on the bridge, on a common mast or on the radar mast.

Confirm that the rubber gasket is properly positioned and that the triangle mark on the cover is aligned with the triangle mark on the mounting base, then tighten the fixing screws for the cover. 12 3. ADJUSTMENT This section provides the information necessary for setting and adjusting the radar sensor, which is carried out from the menu. 3.1 Selecting Radar Source 1. Open the Radar Installation menu. 2. Choose “Radar Source” to show the menu options window. 3. Choose “DRS4A” or DRS6A” as applicable. 4. Close the Radar Source options window. 3.2 Heading Alignment You have mounted the radar sensor 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 error on the display because of the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the radar sensor. The following adjustment wil compensate for this error. 1. Choose “Heading Alignment” from the menu. 2. Select a stationary target echo at a range between 0.125 and 0.25 nm, preferably near the heading line. 3. Place the cursor on the indication “EBL 1” or “EBL 2” at the bottom left corner, and then press the left-button key at the center of the cursorpad to show the EBL. 4. Rotate the RotoKey to bisect the target echo with the EBL. 5. Press the left-button key. 6. As a final test, move the boat towards a small buoy and confirm that the buoy shows up dead ahead on the radar when it is visually dead ahead. 3.3 Setting the Antenna Height 1. Select “ANTENNA HEIGHT” from the menu. 2. Select the height of the radar sensor above the water surface. 13 Pub.No. IME-35670 Z
