1. MOUNTING

1.1 Antenna Unit

1.1.1 GPS antenna unit

Install the GPS antenna unit referring to the drawing at the back of this manual D-1. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep in mind the following points.

Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent reception of the GPS satellite signal.

There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites. Objects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast, may block reception or prolong acquisition time.

Mount the antenna unit as high as possible to keep it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can interrupt reception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes.

1.1.2 VHF antenna Location

Location of the mandatory AIS VHF-antenna should be carefully considered. Digital communication is more sensitive than analog/voice communication to interference created by reflections in obstructions like masts and booms. It may be necessary to relocate the VHF radiotelephone antenna to minimize interference effects.

To minimise interference effects, the following guidelines apply:

The AIS VHF antenna should be placed in an elevated position that is as free as possible with a minimum of 0.5 meters in the horizontal direction from constructions made of conductive materials. The antenna should not be installed close to any large vertical obstruction. The objective for the AIS VHF antenna is to see the horizon freely through 360 degrees.

The AIS VHF antenna should be installed safely away from interfering high-power energy sources like radar and other transmitting radio antennas, preferably at least 3 meters away from and out of the transmitting beam.

There should not be more than one antenna on the same plane. The AIS VHF antenna should be mounted directly above or below the ship’s primary VHF radiotelephone antenna, with no horizontal separation and with a minimum of 2.8 meters vertical separation. If it is located on the same plane as other antennas, the distance apart should be at least 10 meters.

Cabling

The cable should be kept as short as possible to minimize signal attenuation. Coaxial cables equal to or better than RG10U/Y are recommended.

All outdoor installed connectors on coaxial cables should be fitted with preventive isolation such as vulcanizing tape to protect against water penetration into the antenna cable.

Coaxial cables should be installed in separate signal cable channels/tubes and at least 10 cm away from power supply cables. Crossing of cables should be done at right angles (90°). The minimum bend radius of the coaxial cable should be 5 times the cable's outer diameter.

Install the VHF whip antenna referring to the outline drawing at the back of this manual. Separate this antenna from other VHF radiotelephone antennas as shown on the next page to prevent interference to the FA-100.

How to attach the plug M-P-7

Lay the coaxial cable and attach an M-type plug (if necessary) to the cable as follows.

1.Remove the sheath by 30 mm.

2.Bare 23 mm of the center conductor. Trim braided shield by 5 mm and tin.

3.Slide coupling ring onto cable.

4.Screw the plug assembly on the cable.

5.Solder plug assembly to braided shield through solder holes. Solder contact sleeve to conductor.

1.1.3 GPS/VHF combined antenna

Install the combined antenna unit referring to the outline drawing. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep in mind the following points.

Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent reception of the GPS satellite signal.

There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites. Objects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast, may block reception or prolong acquisition time.

Mount the antenna unit as high as possible. Mounting it this way keeps it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can interrupt reception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes.

Also, refer to the antenna installation guidelines page 3.

1.3 Junction Box

Mount the junction box where the junction box is protected from rain and water splash.

Mounting

1.Open the lid of the junction box and fix the junction box with four tapping screws (5x20). Avoid bundling the 3.3 m cable of the junction box together with any power cable. This causes malfunction.

2.Connect cables to the terminal board, referring to Chapter 2 and 3.

3.Fix the lid after connecting external equipment.

4.Clamp the cable with several U-type cable clamps (local supply) at suitable intervals.

1.4 Power Supply (option)

The length of the power cable between the power supply and the transponder unit is 3.5 m. Keep this length in mind when selecting a mounting location. A longer cable should not be used – voltage drop will result, affecting performance.

When selecting a mounting location for the unit, keep the following in mind:

Keep the unit out away from areas subject to water splash.

Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.

The mounting location should be well ventilated.

Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.

A magnetic compass will be affected if the unit is placed too close to it. Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent disturbance to the magnetic compass:

Steering compass: 0.6 m

Standard compass: 0.9 m

Fix the unit with four tapping screws (4x16) to a desktop or the deck as shown in the figure below. It is not necessary to open the cover.

1.5 Pilot Plug (option)

The pilot plug should be mounted near where the pilot steers the ship. This plug is used to connect a PC to display AIS information for use by the pilot. Refer to the outline drawing at the back of this manual for mounting dimensions.
