1. MOUNTING
1.1 Display Unit, Control Unit
This searchlight sonar is available in two configurations: one with the FURUNO-supplied
display unit or one with no display unit and an interface unit (with which to connect a
monitor, locally supplied). For installation of the system which uses a locally supplied
monitor, see paragraph 1.1.3 on page 6 for monitor requirements and installation
information.
The control unit can be installed together with the display unit, or independently, using the
optional mounting kit. These units may be installed on a desktop or flush mounted in a
console.
1.1.1 General mounting considerations
• Keep the units out of direct sunlight.
• Select a location where the units can easily be operated while observing the fishing
ground or area surrounding the vessel.
• For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space at the sides and rear of
the units and leave slack in cable. (Refer to the outline drawing at the back of this manual
for recommended maintenance space.)
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the display unit (or control unit when it is installed
separately) is placed too close to the compass. Observe the following compass safe
distances to prevent deviation to the compass: Standard compass: 0.80 m, Steering
compass: 0.55 m.
