ST50 PLUS RADAR Operation and Installation Handbook
Warning
This radar equipment must be installed and operated in accordance
with the instructions contained in this manual. Failure to do so can
result in personal injury and/or navigational inaccuracies. In particular:
1. HIGH VOLTAGE. The radar display unit contains high voltage.
Adjustments require specialized service procedures and tools only
available to qualified service technicians, and there are no user
serviceable parts or adjustments. The operator never should remove
the display unit covers or attempt to service the equipment.
2. ANTENNA. It is recommended that the radar antenna be mounted
above
objects which could interfere with the radar signal such as the
flying bridge, large engine
stacks, and
personnel. This may be difficult
on some vessels and in such a case it is recommended that a radar
mounting pedestal be used. Always turn off the radar system before
servicing the antenna or nearby equipment.
3. ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY. The radar antenna transmits
electromagnetic energy. It is important that the radar be turned off
whenever personnel are required to come in range of the antenna to
perform work on the antenna assembly or associated equipment.
When properly installed and operated, the use of this radar will
conform to the requirements of ANSI/IEEE
C95.1-1992
Standard for
Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency
Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz.
4. NAVIGATION AID. This radar unit is only an aid to navigation. Its
accuracy can be affected by many factors including equipment failure
or defects, environmental conditions, and improper handling or use.
It is the user’s responsibility to exercise common prudence and
navigational judgment. This radar unit should not be relied
upon as a
substitute for such prudence and judgment.
