CAUTION:
Do not use an open array scanner with an SL70, SL70 PLUS or
SL70RC PLUS 7" LCD display unit. Failure to observe this may
result in permanent damage to these display units.
The 10 kW open array scanner requires 24 V or higher; it will not
operate on 12 V systems.
This handbook is divided into three chapters as follows:
Chapter One
provides information to help you plan the scanner installation. It
includes sections on Unpacking and Inspecting the Components, Selecting the
Scanner Site, Cable Requirements and Power Requirements.
Chapter Two
provides detailed instructions on how to mount and connect each
type of scanner.
Chapter Three
provides instructions on how to perform the system checks,
alignment and adjustments. It also provides information on maintenance and
what to do if you have problems.
EMC installation guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry
standards for use in the leisure marine environment.
Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic
Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that
performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure
that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what
factors could affect the operation of the product.
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance,
but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all
situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the
constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation
possible between different items of electrical equipment.
For
optimum
EMC performance, it is recommended that
wherever possible
:
• Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:
• At least 1 m (3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying
radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB
radios, the distance should be increased to 2 m (7 ft).
• More than 2 m (7 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can nor-
mally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating
element.
