Loading the New Software on a Memory Card The device may contain a software-update memory card. If so, follow the instructions provided with the card. If a software update memory card is not included, you must copy the software update to a memory card. October 2013 • The unit has two mounting options when installed on a standard marine mount. One mounting option is closer to the 190-01656-02_0A Printed in Taiwan center of the unit  , and the second option is offset towards the back à to allow for installation closer to a mast or structure. ◦ If is necessary to extend the power cable, the appropriate gauge of wire must be used as directed in these instructions. ◦ Incorrectly extended runs of cable may cause the radar to malfunction due to insufficient power transmission. Mounting the unit Cable Considerations FT • The device should be mounted away from heat sources such as smoke stacks and lights. • The device should be mounted at a different level than horizontal spreaders and mast crosstrees. • To avoid interference with a magnetic compass, the device should not be mounted closer to a compass than the compass-safe distance value listed in the product specifications. • Other electronics and cables should be mounted more than 2 m (6 ½ ft.) from the radar beam path. • GPS antennas should be either above or below the radar beam path. • The device should be mounted at least 1 m (40 in.) from any transmitting equipment. • The device should be mounted at least 1 m (40 in.) away from cables carrying radio signals such as VHF radios, cables, and antennas. For Single Side Band (SSB) radios, increase the distance to 2 m (78 ¾ in.). Before you mount the unit, you must review the mounting location considerations and select a mounting location. NOTE: The supplied M8 x 1.25 x 60 threaded rods can be used on mounting thicknesses of 5 to 30 mm (3/16 to 1 3/16 in.) (recommended). For surfaces over 30 mm (1 3/16 in.), use longer threaded rods. 1 If you are not installing the device on a pre-drilled Garmincompatible radar mount, use the included mounting template to drill four 9.5 mm (3/8 in.) mounting holes. 2 Install the locking rings and o-rings on the end of the power and Garmin Marine Network cables. 3 Connect the power cable to the power port À and the network cable to the network port Á. It may be necessary to drill 31.7 mm (1 ¼ in.) holes for routing the power or network cable. The provided rubber cable grommet can be used to cover a cable installation hole. • The grommet does NOT provide a waterproof seal. To make the grommet waterproof, marine sealant must be applied. • Additional cable grommets can be purchased from Garmin or a Garmin dealer. When installing the power and network cables, you should observe these considerations. • Cutting the Garmin Marine Network cable is not recommended, but a field install kit can be purchased from Garmin or a Garmin dealer if cutting the network cable is necessary. • To ensure safety, appropriate tie-wraps, fasteners, and sealant should be used to secure the cable along the route and through any bulkheads or the deck. • Cables should not be run near moving objects and high-heat sources or through doorways and bilges. • To avoid interference with other equipment, power and network cables should not be run next to or parallel to other cables, such as radio antenna lines or power cables. If this is not possible, the cables should be shielded with metal conduit or a form of EMI shielding. • The power cable should be installed as close to the battery source as possible. 4 Press the cables into any of the guide grooves  on the bottom of the case, and secure them using cable hold-down plates Ã. The cables should be bent or twisted as little as possible. Position the radome on the mounting surface with the triangular mark on the case aligned to the front of the vessel. Apply the included anti-seize compound to the threads of the four M8 x 1.25 x 60 threaded rods. Insert the four threaded rods into the mounting holes on the bottom of the radome. Up to 50 mm (2 in.) of the threaded rods may extend below the radome. Apply a bead of marine sealant on the mounting surface around each mounting hole. Fasten the device Ä to the mounting surface Å using the threaded rods Æ, flat washers Ç, spring washers È, and hex nuts É. • If the device is compatible with the Garmin Marine Network, connect the network cable to the port labeled NETWORK. Unit Operation All functions of the Garmin radome are controlled with your Garmin marine network chartplotter. See the Radar section of your chartplotter's manual for operating instructions. To download the latest manual, go to www.garmin.com/support/. Measuring the Potential Front-of-Boat Offset The front-of-boat offset compensates for the physical location of the radar scanner on a boat, if the device does not align with the bow-stern axis. 1 Using a magnetic compass, take an optical bearing of a stationary target located within viewable range. Measure the target bearing on the radar. 3 If the bearing deviation is more than +/- 1°, set the front-ofboat offset. 10 Using a torque wrench, tighten the nuts from 13.7 to 18.6 Nm (10 to 14 lbf-in.) of force. Connecting the Power Cable FT WARNING When connecting the power cable, do not remove the in-line fuse holder. To prevent the possibility of injury or product damage caused by fire or overheating, the appropriate fuse must be in place as indicated in the product specifications. In addition, connecting the power cable without the appropriate fuse in place will void the product warranty. Setting the Front-of-Boat Offset Before you can set the front-of-boat offset, you must measure the potential front-of-boat offset. The front-of-boat offset setting configured for use in one radar mode is applied to every other radar mode and to the Radar overlay. Select Up or Down to adjust the offset.
