Extending cable runs
Note:
System performance will be reduced if supplied cables
are extended.
If the RF cable supplied as standard is not long enough, a
98 ft (30 m) cable, is available from your Raymarine dealer,
(part number E96008). Connect the longer cable to the supplied 15
m (49 ft) RF cable to obtain a total cable length of 147 ft (45 m).
Note:
Total cable lengths should not exceed 45 m (147 ft).
System performance can not be guaranteed if cables are
extended.
Antenna Control Unit (ACU)
The Antenna Control Unit (ACU) provides all control and
power-switching functions for the antenna. Three soft keys enable
satellite programming and antenna diagnostics to be carried out.
