Mounting Guidelines
Mounting Location
The mounting location must be carefully chosen before you drill or cut. VesselView must be mounted so that the operator can
use the controls and clearly see the display screen. The display screen has high‑contrast and anti‑reflective properties that
allow viewing in direct sunlight. For best results, mount the display out of direct sunlight and where there is minimal glare from
windows or bright objects.
Verify that there are no hidden electrical wires or other parts behind the panel before cutting.
Do not install where it can be used as a handhold, where it might be submerged, or where it will interfere with the operation of
the boat.
Ensure that there is sufficient clearance space to connect all relevant cables.
Good ventilation must be considered when identifying a mounting location. Poor ventilation can cause the display to overheat.
This product is designed to operate within temperatures of –15 to +55 °C (+5 to 131 °F).
Electromagnetic Interference
The following are the minimum distances that must be considered when selecting a mounting location. Verify that VesselView
is not mounted closer than:
• 1.5 m (5 ft) from a radio or transmitting mast
• 2 m (6.5 ft) from a radar antenna
• 1 m (3 ft) from a compass
Installing VesselView 4
The following installation instructions have been written for the harnesses included with the VesselView. The 90° harness
connector may not allow VesselView to be installed when the dash board thickness is greater than the dimension listed.
Straight connector PN# 8M0075079 should be ordered when the dash board thickness exceeds the maximum allowable
thickness.
1. Verify that there is sufficient clearance for the VesselView harness connections.
