11. INSTALLATION1.1 Installation ConsiderationsGeneral considerations• The radar sensor has no power switch. Therefore, it is recommended that you con-nect the sensor to a distribution switchboard with a switch for power control.Sensor placement• Install the radar sensor on the hardtop, radar arch or on a mast on an appropriate platform. (For sailboats, a “radome mount” is optionally available for fixing the sen-sor to a mast.) Place the sensor where there is a good all-round view with, as far as possible, no part of the ship’s superstructure or rigging intercepting the scanning beam. Any obstruction will cause shadow and blind sectors. A mast for instance, with a diameter considerably less than the horizontal beam width of the radiator, will cause only a small blind sector, but a horizontal spreader or cross trees 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. Be sure there are no metallic objects near the antenna. See illustrations below for typical placement on a sailboat and powerboat.NOTICEDo 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.Installation on a sailboat Installation on a powerboatTypical installation on a sailboat and power boatRadar sensorRadar sensorRadar sensorRadar sensorRadar sensorRadar sensorRear View(Rear View)(Rear View)Horizontal Beam Width12.5°12.5°

1. INSTALLATION2• 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.• In order to reduce the chance of picking up electrical interference, avoid where pos-sible routing the power cable near other electrical equipment on-board. Also, avoid running the cable in parallel with other power cables.• Select a location that does not allow water to accumulate at the base of the sensor.• A magnetic compass will be affected if the radar sensor is too close to the compass. Observe the compass safe distances mentioned in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS to prevent interference to a magnetic compass.• Do not paint the radome to ensure proper emission of the radar waves.• When this radar sensor is to be installed on large vessels, consider the following points:• The length of the standard supply power/LAN cable 1 m (from radome to the con-nector).• The power/LAN cable runs between the radar sensor and display and comes in lengths of 10 m, 15 m, 20 m or 30 m. Select the length when purchasing.• 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 sen-sor must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C (131°F).1.2 Installation of the Radar SensorPrepare a wrench for M10 bolts for installation. Determine the suitability of the mount-ing location BEFORE permanently mounting the sensor. Incoming and outgoing sig-nals may overlap one another depending on the shape of the vessel, preventing communication between the radar and display. Set the sensor on the selected location and connect the sensor to the distribution switchboard and display unit. Turn on the sensor and the display unit. Check that the picture is updated with each sweep on the display unit. Some trial and error may be necessary to find a suitable location.Required tools for installationPrepare below tool before installation of radar sensor.• A wrench for M10 bolts• A drill with 11 mm (0.43”) drill bit

1. INSTALLATION3Installation on a platformInstallation of radar sensor to a platform is as shown below. Read below for the steps and details.1. Remove four each of hex bolts (M1020), flat washers and spring washers pre-attached to the bottom of the radar sensor.2. Construct a platform, cut four holes in the platform referring to the outline drawing and the mounting template at the back of this manual. Fasten the platform to the mounting location. The holes of the platform must be parallel with the fore and aft line.3. Put the radar sensor on the platform with the bow mark () on the sensor aligned with the ship’s bow.4. Use hex bolts*, flat washers and spring washers (removed at the first step) to at-tach the radar sensor to the platform. The torque for the bolts is 19.6 to 24.5 N•m.
