Navigation Aid System Setup and Operation Manual

 

Page 6 of 21 

 

General setup items to note: 
 

1.  The  antenna  is  waterproof  but  the  210-WiFi,  the  210LB,  and  the  computer  are  not 

waterproof. 

2.  The  210LB/Battery  is  waterproof,  and  is  intended  to  be  operated  outdoors  in  order  to 

reduce the antenna cable length. 

3.  It usually takes less than 5 minutes to install or remove the  Raven Portable Navigation 

Aid System.  

4.  Even  though the  Raven system  shows  remote  AIS  and  SEND  vessels  (see  SEND/AIS 

Operation  Manual),  t

he  pilot’s  visual  lookout  and  the  RADAR  are  as critical  as  ever  in 

knowing the positions of other vessels.  

4  Power Requirements 

Only  use  100-240  VAC  power  (use  provided  adapter  if  necessary)  for  the  laptop  computer,  the  DGPS 
unit, or the WPI. 

 

IMPORTANT 

Do not connect any device in the Raven system to a 
DC power outlet, such as the one in the photograph 
below. DC voltage will damage the Raven devices.
