DISPLAY ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
This manual is concerned only with the installation of the NAV-7 and does not cover
the installation of any peripheral equipment connected to the NAV-7 such as
printers, navigational systems or source of NMEA data. For proper installation and
connection of peripheral equipment to the NAV-7 refer to the installation manuals
for these products.
The table below shows the connections that must be made to the NAV-7 for it to
function correctly.
Connection Must connect Optional
Ship’s earth connection ü
12V or 24 V DC power supply ü
NAVTEX antenna ü
Alarm Relay ü
NMEA or IBS time reference See Note 1 See Note 1
Integrated Bridge/Navigation System ü
External printer ü
Note 1: Connecting a time reference (eg a GPS receiver) is highly recommended.
Ship’s earth connection
The earth terminal on the rear of the NAV-7 display must be connected to ship’s
ground by the earth cable supplied. The earth connection should be kept as short
as possible.
Safety Warning
To ensure the best possible protection of the NAV-7 from static electricity
or nearby lighting strikes, the pre-fitted green grounding wire (connected
to the safety earth spade) must be connected to a nearby (hull) electrical
grounding point.
25
12V or 24 V DC power connection
A connection must be made to a 12 or 24 V DC supply via a circuit breaker capable
of supplying at least 2 amps. Connection should be to the ship’s radio battery and
be in accordance with GMDSS requirements.
Connections should be made using the 2 m power cable provided
Use cable ties to restrain the wiring, and so prevent it becoming weakened
by vibration. The connecting cables should be restrained by securing them
to the rear of the NAV-7 bracket, or to adjacent metalwork
The screen of the cable should be connected to ship’s earth if possible.
The screen of the cable should not be connected to ship’s battery ve
Safety Warning
The NAV-7 has been designed and manufactured to be completely safe
when used in accordance with the instructions given in this manual. To
ensure that the complete installation is safe, it is essential that a fuse or
circuit breaker is installed in the power supply cable as described in the
Installation section of this manual.
Isolation between the power supply connections and any other connection to the
NAV-7 is 1 kV minimum.
The DC power source should comply with IMO guidelines for the class of vessel
concerned. National authorities and classification societies may have their own
power supply requirements; these should also be considered.
Signal cable connections
As shown in the table above, the NAV-7 may be connected to different types of
peripheral units including IBS & INS serial ports and printers.
The signal connections are all connected via a serial RS422 type interface; data
rates are selectable at 4800, 38400 or 115200 baud.
In some cases, particularly in retrofit installations, it may not be possible to connect
the NAV-7 directly to the required source/destination for serial data, because some
equipment does not provide the IEC 61162-2 (NMEA) sentences required by the
NAV-7 unit. In such cases a protocol converter is required between the sensor and
the NAV-7. Converters are available from different manufacturers, either as direct
protocol converters or frequently as repeater instruments for the sensor.

Signal line termination
RS422 signal lines may need termination resistors at the far end of the serial cable
connected to the NAV-7, depending on the length of connecting cable and the rate
of data transmission. Both the IBS and the NMEA ports in the NAV-7 have inbuilt
100O termination resistors for both Tx and Rx.
Whether termination is required depends on many factors, particularly the length of
the signal cable and the environment in which the equipment is operating. The
principle is shown in the sketch:
There is only one talker per twisted pair; there can be several listeners. The
intention is that terminations must be provided by the devices at the ends of the
line, regardless of whether they are listeners or the talker, and that no other device
should provide a termination.
Since the NAV-7 contains internal termination, it MUST be at the end of the line and
NOT in the middle.
It is good practice to use screened cables in all ship cable installations. Take care to
connect the cable screen to ship’s ground at one end only of the cable, as
connecting at both ends may cause ground loops and interference to the signals.
The cable screen should not be connected to any part of the NAV-7.
Connecting to the IBS serial interface
The display connection cable is supplied ready for
use, and needs only to be plugged into the
appropriate connector on the NAV-7.
Display cable: Six twisted pairs, screened, PVC
sheathed. For lengths to 200 meters, use 0.22 mm2
(7/32); Belden 8106 or equivalent.
The connections to the15-pin socket on the NAV-7 are given below. Note that the
cable screen should not be connected to any part of the NAV-7.

ANTENNA INSTALLATION
Selecting a suitable antenna
The NAV-7 receives transmissions on three frequencies. 518 kHz transmissions are
in International English; 490 kHz and 4209.5 kHz transmissions may be in a local
language.
To receive on all frequencies the NAV-7 must be used with a wide frequency
(400kHz to 5MHz) antenna that covers 518 kHz, 490 kHz and 4209.5 kHz.
If you have purchased the NAV-7 receiver without an antenna then a suitable active
NAVTEX antenna should be used. McMurdo supplies a suitable wide frequency
antenna with the NAV-7 System; this antenna can be purchased separately as Part
No. 905-05.
If the Installer is supplying an alternative antenna, note that the NAV-7 must
be used with a low impedance 50 ohm antenna or an antenna with a 50 ohm
matching network. A mis-matched or high impedance whip or wire antenna
should not be used as the operational range of NAVTEX reception may be greatly
reduced; it is also important that the antenna is capable of reception over the
frequency range specified above.
If a Wire or long whip antenna is used with the NAV-7 it must be fitted with a 50
ohm matching transformer. Take care that the antenna power is disabled refer to
Setup Receiver mode for details. A qualified installer should be consulted.
31
Important
NAVTEX antennas must be mounted clear of obstructions and at least 0.5
metres away from other antennas.
Where practical avoid locating the NAVTEX antenna close to MF / HF
transmitting antennas or VHF / AIS antennas.
Ensure that antennas cannot be snagged by mooring warps or running
rigging or engulfed by green water.
Antennas should always be mounted vertically.
32
Installation of the tri-channel NAVTEX antenna
The NAVTEX antenna should be mounted vertically, in an elevated position. Metal,
rigging or other antennas must not be located in the 'NO GO cone' surrounding the
upper part.
Use the mounting bracket supplied; an alternative mounting kit may be purchased if
the mounting arrangement is unsuitable for your installation.
Attach the clamping brackets to the antenna mounting adapter and use the
clamping arrangement to fix to a suitable vertical tube.
Thread the PL259 connector end of the coax cable through the antenna mounting
adapter and secure the connector to the antenna 1" threaded adapter.
33
Slide the rubber boot over the PL259 connector; if desired, it may be filled with
silicone grease for a better weatherproof seal.
Screw the antenna down into the antenna mounting adapter.
Ensure that the mounting adapter is connected to ground. If necessary, connect a
grounding wire, 2.5 mm2 minimum, to a suitable ground point.
Installation of the antenna cable
Start routing the antenna cable at the antenna end.
Where the cable passes through bulkheads or decks, waterproof deck glands
should be installed. Securely fasten the cable against vibration using plastic cable
tie wraps.
Complete routing of the antenna cable at the NAV-7 TNC connector.
Fitting the TNC connector
A TNC connector is supplied as part of the NAV-7 Receiver Kit.
Fit the TNC connector as shown below:
Place the rubber boot, gland nut, washer and rubber seal onto cable.
Remove the outer insulation for a distance of 8mm.
Slide the cable braid sleeve over the screen braid, fold the braid back and
trim off extra braid.
Strip 2.5mm of the inner insulation to expose the centre conductor.
Solder the pin onto the centre conductor.
Assemble the connector and tighten the gland nut. Push the rubber boot
securely over the gland nut.

34
Extending the antenna coax cable
If required, the coaxial cable may be extended with 50 ohm coaxial cable and
connectors. The maximum cable length should not exceed 100 m. Ensure that any
cable joints are well secured and waterproofed using self-amalgamating (rubber)
tape.
Cable should be RG-58 / RG-67 / RG-213 / RG-214 grade or better; connectors
should be suitable RF types (TNC, BNC, etc).
Testing the tri-channel active antenna installation
By default the NAV-7 provides a regulated 12 V DC (nom) 100 mA output to provide
power for an active antenna such as the one supplied as part of a NAV-7 System.
If you are using an alternative active antenna please check that it is compatible with
this power output. If it is not, then an external power supply interface will be
required. Your antenna supplier should be able to provide this.
WARNING
Take care not to apply power to the antenna TNC connector
from an external supply
Switch on the NAV-7 by applying power (12 V DC or 24 V DC) via a circuit breaker
or fuse.
There will be a few seconds delay whilst the software loads the contents of the
NAVTEX message store during which time the front panel red LED will blink.
The LCD display backlight will come on and the NAV-7 start-up screen will be
shown.
If the antenna fault icon appears along the top of the display, switch off immediately
and check for a short circuit at the antenna, the TNC connector or any other RF
connections in-between. If the fault persists then please follow the trouble shooting
guide in this manual.
35
Testing the Banten active antenna
If it is suspected that reception is being compromised by the antenna performance,
the antenna should be checked for electrical damage.
Disconnect the antenna from the NAV-7 by unscrewing the TNC connector at the
back of the NAV-7.
Using a DVM set on resistance, measure across the TNC RF connector from the
centre pin to the outer ferrule, looking back up towards the antenna. DO NOT
ATTEMPT TO MEASURE THE RESISTANCE OF THE TNC SOCKET ON THE
NAV-7.
A good antenna will show a reading in the range 1500 2000 ohms.
A failed antenna will show a reading < 1000 ohms.
If a reading of greater than 5000 ohms is measured, then there is a continuity
problem with the connector or cable; these should be checked for damage or
misconnection.
Note that these resistance values only apply to a Banten active antenna as supplied
by McMurdo. Other active antennas will have different resistance readings; consult
the supplier in order to check such antennas.
Testing a passive antenna installation
The NAV-7 regulated 12 V DC 100 mA output can be disabled for passive antenna
installations or for installations using a matching transformer.
NOTE: This should be done the first time that power is applied to the NAV-7
BEFORE the antenna is connected.
Switch on the NAV-7 by applying power (12 V DC or 24 V DC) via a circuit breaker
or fuse.
There will be a few seconds delay whilst the software loads the contents of the
NAVTEX message store during which time the front panel red LED will blink.
The LCD display backlight will come on and the NAV-7 start-up screen will be
shown.
If the antenna fault icon appears along the top of the display, switch off immediately
and check for a short circuit at the antenna, the TNC connector or any other RF
connections in-between. If the fault persists then please follow the trouble shooting
guide in this manual.
