2.2 Mounting
Mounting considerations
When selecting a location, keep in mind the following points.
• Make sure the location is strong enough to support the unit under the conditions of continued
vibration and shock normally encountered on the vessel.
• Locate the unit away from heat sources.
• The location must not be near water, rain and water splash.
• Follow the recommended maintenance space shown in the outline drawing.
• Follow the compass safe distance (standard compass: 0.30 m, steering compass: 0.30 m) to
prevent interference to a magnetic compass.
• Connect the ground wire between the ground terminal and ship’s earth.
• Keep in mind the length of the connection cable between the units.
Procedure
Install the unit with two self-tapping screws, on a bulkhead or desktop.
