4.11 Control Unit
Avoid mounting the control unit(s) where it is easily exposed to
sunlight, as this will shorten the lifetime of the display. If this is
not possible, make sure the units are always covered with the
protective cover when not in use.
Panel-mounting
The mounting surface must be flat and even to within 0.5 mm.
• Drill the 4 mounting holes and
make a panel cutout according to
the supplied template.
• Use the supplied gasket between
the panel and the unit.
• Use the supplied 19 mm screws to
fasten the control unit to the panel.
• Apply the front panel corners.
• Connect the RobNet cable(s) to the
control unit connector(s) (see
“Note!” on page 97).
Gasket
Optional Bracket mounting
(This may be ordered separately from Simrad, part no.
20212130).
Note ! When the control unit is bracket-mounted, it is not weatherproof
from the back due to a breathing hole in the back cabinet. When
bracket-mounted, the exposed parts of the plugs should be
protected against salt corrosion.
• Locate the cradle on the mounting site and mark the 4 holes
for the screws on the mounting surface.
• Drill the 4 holes and screw the cradle to the mounting
surface.
• Use the supplied screws to fasten the control unit to the left
and right brackets.
• Apply the front panel corners.
• Use the two locking knobs to assemble the cradle with the
left and right brackets and adjust the control head for the best
viewing angle.
• Connect the RobNet cable(s) to the control unit connector(s)
(see “Note!” on page 97).
