Notes
1) The gyrocompass must be type approved for compliance with IMO resolution A.424(XI) (and/
or resolution A.821(19) for installation on HSC). The gyrocompass must also have an update
rate that is adequate for the ship’s rate of turn. The update rate must be better than 40 Hz
(HSC) or 20 Hz (conventional vessel).
2) The EPFS must be type approved for compliance with IMO resolution MSC.112(73).
3) These monitors have been approved by the IMO, MU-190/MU-190HD for CAT 2 and CAT 2H,
MU-231/MU-270W for CAT 1 and CAT 1H. If a different monitor is to be used on IMO vessels,
its effective diameter must meet the Category requirements:
• CAT 1 and CAT 1H: effective diameter 320 mm or higher
• CAT 2 and CAT 2H: effective diameter 250 mm or higher
For installation, operation and viewing distance of other monitor, see its manuals.
For BB type, a monitor unit is prepared by user.
4) Characteristics of contact output for Alarm:
• (Load current) 250 mA
• (Polarity) Normally Open: 2 ports, Normally Close: 2 ports
• Serial I/O for alarm is also possible, which complies with IEC 61162-1.
5) For configurations with 3 or more radars/ECDIS (FMD-3100/FMD-3200/FMD-3300) connect-
ed, connect via the HUB-3000. For 2 radars, HUB-100 can be used. Connection to a FMD (EC-
DIS) is not available for C-type radars.
6) For configurations with a VDR connected, connect via the HUB-3000. Connection to a VDR is
not available for C-type radars.
7) Some antenna configurations do not have an in-built Performance Monitor. This type of anten-
na is not usable for IMO-type radars.
8) For connecting non-FURUNO ECDIS only. For connection of radars or plotters, the connection
must be done at the radar antenna (or the transceiver unit) via the sub monitor connector.
9) Available on C-type and A/B/W-type radars with Radar Plotter functionality
10) Junction boxes are required for antenna cable length greater than 100 m (only for TR-UP radar
of X-band). Max. cable length is 400 m.
11) Unavailable on IMO-type radars.
