SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
ii
Ground the equipment to prevent
mutual interference.
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, 50 and 10 W/m2 exist
are given in the table below.
WARNING LABEL
A warning label is attached to the antenna unit. Do not remove the label.
If the label is missing or damaged, contact your dealer about replacement.
Name: Warning Label (2)
Type: 03-129-1001-3
Code No: 100-236-743
It is recommended that you
connect the antenna unit to a
disconnecting device (circuit
breaker, etc.) to control the
power.

1. INSTALLATION AND WIRING
1.1 Mounting Considerations
Select a mounting location, keeping in mind in the following points:
Install the antenna unit on the hardtop, radar arch or on a mast on an appropriate
platform.
Locate the antenna unit where there is a good all-round view with, as far as possi-
ble, no part of the ship’s superstructure or rigging intercepting the scanning beam.
Any obstruction will cause shadow sectors and decrease the radiator’s performance
(beam width, side-lobe level, etc.). The loss of the radiator’s performance cause the
deterioration of the radar’s observation (bearing resolution, etc.) and false echoes.
A mast for instance, with a diameter considerably less than the horizontal beam
width of the radiator, will cause only a small shadow sector, but a horizontal spread-
er or cross trees in the same horizontal plane as the antenna unit would be a much
more serious obstruction; you would need to place the antenna unit well above or
below it. Be sure there are no metallic objects near the antenna.
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.
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. INSTALLATION AND WIRING

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.
It is not recommended to install the antenna unit on the hardtop of a cabin. Vibra-
tions from the antenna unit will pass through the hardtop and into the cabin.
It is not recommended to install the antenna unit on the off-center position. The ra-
dar echoes on the display may not be aligned with the actual target’s bearing.
Select a location that does not allow water to accumulate at the base of the antenna
unit.
A magnetic compass will be affected if the antenna unit 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 radiator to ensure proper emission of the radar waves.
Make the maintenance space shown in the outline drawing for maintenance and
checking purpose.
When this antenna unit is to be installed on a large vessel, consider the following
points:
The supplied power/LAN cable runs between the antenna unit and display (or
ethernet HUB) 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 antenna
unit must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C (131°F).

1.5 Mounting the Antenna Unit
The antenna unit can be mounted using the fixing holes on the outside (200 200 mm)
or inside (140 150 mm) the antenna unit. Normally, use the outside fixing holes.
When 140 150 mm fixing holes already exist on the mounting platform, use the in-
side fixing holes.
Hoisting the antenna unit
When you hoist the antenna unit, set belt slings to the radiator bracket. Do not set
belt slings to the radiator - the radiator may get damaged.
Hoist the antenna unit slowly. If the antenna unit is hoisted too quickly, shock is ap-
plied to the radiator bracket, which can damage the bracket.
1. Use the mounting template to drill four fixing holes in the mounting location.
Note: The holes must be parallel with the fore and aft line.
2. Attach four corrosion-proof rubber pads to the mounting holes.
WRONG: Belt slings are set to the radiator. OK: Belt slings are set to the radiator bracket.

1.6 Wiring
Wiring considerations
Turn off the power at the switchboard before beginning the wiring.
The power/LAN cable has connectors. Do not cut the power/LAN cable.
When you replace the DRS4A/6A/12A/25A with the DRS6A X-Class, the existing
cable cannot be used. Use the power/LAN cable supplied with the DRS6A X-Class.
1. Unfasten two screws to remove the cable cover.
2. Connect the power/LAN cable to the antenna cable that is pre-attached to the an-
tenna unit.
