2.4 PLANNING THE INSTALLATION
When planning the location for your RAY 430 to be installed, the following conditions
should be considered to insure dependable and trouble-free operation.
1) The mounting location should be easily accessible to allow easy operation of the
front panel and provide the best viewing angle of the display.
2) There should be adequate ventilation.
3) A sufficient space should be secured behind the unit to allow all cable connections to
the rear panel terminal strip.
4) The mounting place should be located as near to the power source as possible.
5) The selected location should be isolated away from devices that may cause offending
noise or interference, such as motors, steering cables and generators.
6) Generally speaking, the Loudhailer should be protected from prolonged direct
exposure to rain and salt spray. It is a good practice to protect this valuable equipment
as much as possible.
The unit can be conveniently mounted on a chart table, bulkhead, overhead or any other
desired place. (Refer to Figure 2- 1 for typical locations and mounting configurations)
