MOUNTING THE DISPLAY UNIT
When planning the installation for your display unit, the following conditions
should be considered to ensure dependable and trouble-free operation.
1) The mounting location should be accessible enough to allow easy operation
of all the front panel controls.
2) There should be adequate ventilation.
3) There should be sufficient space behind the display unit to allow for cable
connections to its rear.
4) The display unit should be located near a DC power source.
5) The selected location should be far enough away from any device which
might cause interference, such as motors, generators and echo sounders.
6) Generally, the display unit should be located in a protected area, away from
prolonged direct exposure to rain and salt spray. It is good practice to pro-
tect your valuable electronic equipment as much as possible.
The display unit can be conveniently bracket-mounted on a chart table, or flush
mounted in a bulkhead or other convenient panel. Using the outline of FIG. 3-1
and FIG. 3-3 as a guide, install the display unit and secure it firmly to the mount-
ing surface.
