1. MOUNTING

1.1 Mounting Methods for Scanner Unit

The scanner unit is generally installed ei­ther on top of the wheelhouse or on the radar mast on a suitable platform. Locate the scanner unit where there is a good all­round view. Any obstruction will cause shadow and blind sectors. A mast for in­stance, with a diameter considerably less than the width of the radiator, will cause only a small blind sector, but a horizontal spreader or crosstrees in the same hori­zontal plane as the scanner unit would be a much more serious obstruction; you would need to place the scanner unit well above or below it.
It is rarely possible to place the scanner unit where a completely clear view in all directions is available. Thus, you should determine the angular width and relative bearing of any shadow sectors for their in­fluence on the radar at the first opportu­nity after fitting.
Do not paint the radiator aperture, to en­sure proper emission of the radar waves.
When this radar is to be installed on larger vessels, consider the following points:
• The signal cable run between the scan­ner and the display comes in lengths of 10 m (standard), 15 m, 20 m and 30 m. Whatever length is used it must be unbroken; namely , no splicing allowed.
• Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the aerial performance and hot gases may distort the radiator portion. The scanner unit must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 70 C.
As shown in the figure below, the scanner unit may be installed on the bridge, on a com­mon mast or on the radar mast.
If you have a radio direction finder on your boat, locate its antenna clear of the scan­ner unit to prevent interference to the di­rection finder. A separation of more than two meters is recommended.
To lessen the chance of picking up elec­trical interference, avoid where possible routing the signal cable near other onboard electrical equipment. Also avoid running the cable in parallel with power cables.
A magnetic compass will be affected if placed too close to the scanner unit. Ob­serve the following compass safe dis­tances to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass: Standard compass, 1.00 m, Steering compass, 0.75 m.

1.2 Fixing Holes in Mounting Platform

Referring to the outline drawing on page D­1, drill five holes in the mounting platform: four holes of 15 mm diameter for fixing the scanner unit and one hole of 25-30 mm di­ameter for the signal cable.

Mounting considerations
When selecting a mounting location for the display unit keep in mind the following points:
Provide adequate space behind and around the unit to permit circulation of air and to provide convenient access to the rear connection.
Even though the picture is quite legible even in bright sunlight, keep the display unit out of direct sunlight or at least shaded because of heat that can build up inside the cabinet.
Locate the display unit in a position where you can view and operate it conveniently but where there is no danger of salt or fresh water spray or immersion.
The orientation of the display unit should be so the radar screen is viewed while the operator is facing in the direction of the bow. This makes determination of your position much easier.
Make sure you allow enough clearance both to get to the connectors behind the unit and to allow you to get your hands in on both sides to loosen or tighten the mounting knobs. Make sure you leave at least a foot or so of “service loop” of cables behind the unit so it can be pulled forward for servicing or easy removal of the con­nectors.
The compass safe distance of 0.75 meters (standard compass) and 0.6 meters (steer­ing compass) should be observed to pre­vent deviation of the magnetic compass.
Even though the display unit meets wa­terproof standard IPX-5, the connection of external buzzer, radar plotter and/or re­mote display can affect waterproofness. W atertight integrity cannot be guaranteed. When these modification has been done, the display unit should not be mounted where exposed.
Mounting
The display unit is designed to be mounted on a tabletop or bulkhead.
1. Using the hanger as a template, mark
screw locations in the mounting location.
2. Fix the hanger to the mounting location
with five M6 tapping screws (supplied).
3. Fit the knob bolts to the display unit. In-
stall the display unit in the hanger. Tighten the knob bolts securely.

2. CONNECTIONS

2.1 Connecting the Signal Cable

Only the signal cable runs from the display unit to the scanner unit. In order to minimize the chance of picking up electrical interfer­ence, avoid where possible routing the sig­nal cable near other onboard electrical equipment. Also, avoid running the cable in parallel with power cables. Pass the cable through the hole and apply sealing compound around the hole for waterproofing.
1. Open the scanner cover by loosening two screws, and then fix the stay.

3.4 Aligning Heading

3.5 Adjusting Sweep Timing

(Adjustment sector: 0~359.90)
You have mounted the scanner unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the bow. Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should appear on the heading marker (zero degrees).
In practice, you will probably observe some small bearing error on the display because of the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the scanner unit. The following adjustment will compensate for this error.
1. Identify a suitable target (for example, ship or buoy) at a range between 0.125 to 0.25 nautical miles, preferably near the head­ing marker. To lessen error, keep echoes in the outer half of the picture by chang­ing the range. Also, be sure the zoom and off center functions are off.
2. Select “9. Heading Alignment” from the Installation Setup menu and press the [ACQ/ENTER] key. The following mes­sage appears:
[Heading Alignment]
Set EBL1 to center of target
dead ahead and press ENTER.
(Adjustment range: 0.000~4.266 nm)
This adjustment ensures proper radar per­formance, especially on short ranges. The radar measures the time required for a trans­mitted echo to travel to the target and return to the source. The received echo appears on the display based on this time. Thus, at the instant the transmitter is fired, the sweep should start from the center of the display (sometimes called sweep origin).
A trigger pulse generated in the display unit goes to the scanner unit through the signal cable to trigger the transmitter (magnetron). The time taken by the signal to travel up to the scanner unit varies, depending largely on the length of the signal cable. During this pe­riod the display unit should wait before start­ing the sweep. When the display unit is not adjusted correctly , the echoes from a straight local object (for example, a harbor wall or straight pier) will not appear with straight edges – they will be seen as “pushed out” or “pulled in” near the picture center. The range of objects will also be incorrectly shown.

3. Operate the omnipad to bisect target se­lected at step 1 with the heading marker.
4. Press the [ACQ/ENTER] key.
5. As a final test, move the boat towards a small buoy and confirm that the buoy shows up dead ahead on the radar when it is visually dead ahead.

3.6 Adjusting MBS

(Adjustment range: 0.00~0.25)
Main bang, a large filled circle which appears at the display center on short ranges, can be suppressed as follows:
1. Transmit on long range about 10 minutes.
2. Adjust the gain to show a small amount of noise on the display.
2. Select STC curve desired; Sharp: The effective range of the [A/C
SEA] control is relatively short.
Std: Between Sharp and Gentle. Gntl (Gentle): The effective range of
the [A/C SEA] control is relatively long.
3. Press the [ACQ/ENTER] key.

3.8 Setting a Dead Sector

When the scanner is installed at a close dis­tance in front of the wheelhouse, the radar should be set not to transmit within that area, to prevent microwave hazard. The dead sec­tor area graphic can be turned on/off on the OTHERS menu.
1. Select “7. Dead Sector” from the Installa-
tion Setup menu and press the [ACQ/EN­TER] key.
3. Change to the 0.125 nautical mile range and adjust the [A/C SEA] control.
4. Select “1 1. MBS Adjustment” from the In­stallation Setup menu and press the [ACQ/ENTER] key. The following mes­sage appears:

5. Operate the trackball to suppress main bang (adjustment range: 000 to 025).
6. Press the [ACQ/ENTER] key.

3.7 Selecting STC Curve

The STC curve changes with respect to the antenna height above the waterline. The de­fault STC curve can be maintained in most cases. If necessary the STC curve can be changed as follows:
2. Operate the omnipad to enter starting point of sector (in figures).
3. Press the [ACQ/ENTER] key.
4. Operate the omnipad to enter ending point of sector (in figures, Max: 270°).
5. Press the [ACQ/ENTER] key.
Note: This setting should be done after other adjustment are finished.
