Alwayscheck the installation before going to sea to make sure that it is not
affectedby radiotransmissions,engine startingetc.
8.8 Integrated Systems
The hsb
2
series displays can be linked to other equipmentto transfer data as
follows:
• Additional displays,either CRT or LCD, can be connected via
hsb
2
(and
SeaTalk) to repeat fishfinder, chart and/or radar information at a remote
location.
• Data can be received via SeaTalk or NMEA, some of which will increase
the functionalityof the display. Other datacan be viewed on the display.
• Data can be transmittedvia SeaTalk and NMEA to enhance other equip-
ment.
• Some incomingdata can be converted across the communicationlink and
re-transmitted - see Data Conversion on page 8-30.
Power for External Equipment
Externalequipment cannot be powered fromthe display’s SeaTalk
interface. Itmust be powered from the ship’s supply or via a SeaTalkbus.
Ensurecorrect polarity of the SeaTalk connection.
For systems where the ship’s power source is 24 V only, you may need to
installa 24 V to 12 V DC converter. This is only necessary if the products
beingconnected to the display are:
• SeaTalk compatible (for example, compass,GPS and instruments),and
thereis no existingSeaTalk bus
• NMEA compatible, but operate only from 12 V (for example, compass,
GPS and some navigators)
The DC~DC converter must conform to the following specification:
