3.8 Install the scanner unit

Important: Remember that you must screw the bolts into place from the under side of the

location site, because the shape of the dome prevents you from installing the bolts from the top

side. Ensure that you can access the under side of the location site before drilling.

Find the paper mounting template and tape it securely to the chosen location site. Before

drilling, check that:

• the location site is not more than 0.6" (15 mm) thick.

• You have oriented the mounting template correctly so that the front of the scanner unit will

face the front of the vessel; and

• the location site allows the drain hole to empty.

Drill the four holes plus the drain hole where shown. Remove the mounting template, then

position a rubber washer over each hole on the scanner. Ensure that the slot in the rubber

washer is aligned with the rib on the scanner.

Position the scanner carefully over the bolt holes so that they are aligned with the holes of the

rubber washers and the drill holes.

Place a spring washer then a plain washer onto each bolt, as shown. Screw each bolt into each

drill hole from the under side of the location site, and tighten securely

Note: Use the bolts supplied as these are hardened stainless steel and the correct length.

3.9 Install a scanner on a trestle

Depending on your chosen location for the scanner, it may be easier to install the scanner if you

fabricate a trestle (or radar mast) on which you can mount the scanner.

The trestle must be sturdy and secure, and capable of supporting the scanner in all weather

conditions.

You are recommended to install the base of the trestle parallel to the water surface.

Orient the trestle so that the cable inlet on the scanner will face the stern, and so that the

scanner can be mounted at the correct angle (as discussed in the "Power boat installation"

section).

Make sure that the edges of the trestle won't trap water.

3.10 Install the radar processor

Install the radar processor in a dry location away from spray, rain, drips and condensation.

The radar processor must be located where it can be easily connected to the ship's ground, the

interconnection cable, the power cable and the radar communications cable or the network

cable. Check that these cables and the ship's ground can easily reach the radar processor

BEFORE you drill.

The radar processor dimensions are shown on the installation template. Follow the instructions

on the installation template to install the radar processor.
