The proper installation of the radar equipment is critical in ensuing its effective and reliable performance as
well as facilitating maintenance and repair. Therefore, carefully install the radar equipment by following the
procedures below:
1) Install the scanner as high as possible while ta
king the scanner's weight into consideration.
2) It is preferable to install the display unit in
t
he wheel house to facilitate observations.
3) The standard cable length for installing the radar JMA-5300MK2 is as shown in the table below. If
th
ere is a n
eed for using a cable longer than the standard length, notify JRC of it beforehand. A
cable longer than the standard length may hider performance of the radar, so give it careful
consideration when planning the installation. (The standard cable length is considered to be
sufficient for small and middle size ships for which this radar is designed.)
Standard cable length (number of cores)
JMA-5312-6/6HS 20 m (19 cores)
JMA-5322-7/9/6HS 20 m (19 cores)
JMA-5332-12 10 m (19 cores)(between the Display Unit and the Junction Unit)
20 m (14 cores)(between the Junction Unit and the Scanner Unit)
