1. MOUNTING
1.1 Monitor Unit
The monitor unit can be flush mounted in a console panel, or mounted on a desktop using
the optional accessories. For MU-190/231, see the applicable Operator’s Manual(s).
Mounting considerations
When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:
• Select a location where the display unit can be viewed conveniently and where the
screen can be viewed while facing towards the bow.
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources because of heat that
can build up inside the cabinet.
• Locate the equipment away from places subject to water splash and rain.
• Leave sufficient space on the sides and rear of the unit to facilitate maintenance.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the monitor unit is placed too close to the magnetic
compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation of a
magnetic compass.
Installation for TCS
• TCS with separate Conning Display: To fulfill this requirement, certain installations may
require 21” monitor and separate Conning display.
• TCS without separate Conning Display (Single screen ECDIS): Require that certain
TCS related data is available in main Conning position of the vessel. To fulfill this
requirement, certain installations may require large 23” monitor alternative for single
screen installation. The viewing distance from main Conning position to installation place
of single screen ECDIS are 120 cm (MU-231CE) and 108 cm (MU-201CE). In this mode,
TCS related data fields should always be displayed. To prevent this fields obscured by
other popular operational dialogs, set dialog box to open next to left of sidebar. See “3.3.3
Activating dialog boxes on the display” in Operator's Manual.
Mounting procedure
Flush mounting
Follow the procedure below to mount the monitor unit in a console panel.
1. Make cutout in mounting location referring to the outline drawing shown on the next
page.
2. Insert the monitor unit to the hole and fix it by four self-tapping screws (6x30).
3. Attach panel hooks near the fixing holes. These are used to pull out the monitor unit
