1.5 GPS Antenna

Do not connect the GPS antenna connector to ground.
Short circuit can result.
Install the GPS antenna unit referring to the outline drawing at the back of this manual. When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep the following in mind:
• Select a location out of the radar and inmarsat beams. 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.
CAUTION
• The location should be well away from a VHF antenna. A VHF antenna emits har­monic waves, which can interfere with the GPS receiver.
How to extend the antenna cable
Use the cable type RG-10/UY (shipyard supply) to extend the antenna cable.
Note: The length of this cable should be less than 20 m to prevent signal loss. The coax. coupling cable assy.(type: NJ-TP-3DXV-1, code no. 000-123-809), coaxial con­nector (N-P-8DFB; supplied), vulcanizing tape and vinyl tape are required. Fabricate both ends of the cable as shown in the figure below.

Location
The location of the VHF antenna should be carefully considered. It may be necessary to relocate the VHF radiotelephone antenna to minimize interference effects. To min­imize interference effects, the following guidelines apply:
• Select a location out of the radar and inmarsat beams. Those beams will obstruct or prevent reception of the AIS signal.
• The 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 VHF antenna is to see the horizon freely through 360 degrees.
• There should not be more than one antenna on the same plane. The 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.
1. INSTALLATION
Cabling
• The cable should be kept as short as possible to minimize signal attenuation. Co­axial cables equal to or better than 5D-2V 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. Also, apply marine sealant at the antenna base to prevent water intru­sion from the screw part of the antenna base.
• 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 degrees). The minimum bend radius of the coaxial cable should be 5 times the cable's outer diameter.
When coaxial cable 5D-2V (shipyard supply) is used, attach the coaxial plug M-P-5 (shipyard supply) as shown on the next page.

1.7 AC-DC Power Supply (option)

When selecting a mounting location for the unit, keep the following in mind:
• Keep the unit 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
compass safe distances noted in the safety instructions to prevent disturbance to the magnetic compass.
Fix the unit with four self-tapping screws (4u16) to a desktop or the deck. It is not nec­essary to open the cover.
