SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Do not open the cover unless totally familiar with electrical circuits.

Hazardous voltage which will cause death or serious injury exists inside the equipment.

Turn off the power at the mains switchboard before beginning the installation. Post a warning sign near the switchboard to indicate that power should not be applied while the equipment is being installed.

Electrical shock, serious injury or fire can result if the power is not turned off or is applied while the equipment is being installed.

CAUTION

Ground the equipment to prevent electrical shock and mutual interference.

Confirm that the power supply voltage is compatible with the voltage rating of the equipment.

Connection to the wrong power supply can cause fire or equipment damage. The voltage rating appears on the label at the rear of the display unit.

Observe the compass safe disatnce to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass.

3. Mounting

Transceiver Unit

General mounting considerations

Determine the mounting location for the transceiver unit considering operator convenience, proximity to the power source and the ground location. Keep these and the following points in mind when selecting a mounting location.

Locate the unit in a place free of water spray and water splash.

Keep the unit out of direct sunlight because of heat that can build up inside the unit.

Leave a little slack in cables to allow a service technician to move the radio from its usual location with the cables connected. This

lets him make tuning and other adjustments on a “live” set.

Do not install the unit where flammable gases are stored.

Select a well ventilated area.

Ensure the mounting location is strong enough to support the weight of the unit (6 kg) under the condition of continued vibration nor-

mally encountered aboard the vessel. If necessary, reinforce the mounting area with a doubling plate or lining block.

Leave sufficient space at the sides and rear of the unit for maintenance and service purposes and to provide for circulation of cooling air. The minimum service clearance appears in Figure 2.

For flush mounting, select a location where the LCD can be easily viewed.

Note:

Take great care not to press the DISTRESS switch during the installation. If you accidentally press the switch, immediately turn off the equipment and contact appropriate authority by telephone.

Mounting procedure for tabletop, overhead and bulkhead mounting

1.Using the hanger as a template, mark fixing holes in the mounting location.

2.Fix the hanger to the mounting location with 4 sets of tapping screw, washer, space and two kinds of bushing.

3.Screw the knob bolts with washers into the transceiver unit.

4.Set the transceiver unit to the hanger and tighten knob bolts.

For added support, fasten hanger with nuts, bolts and washers (local supply) instead of wood screws.

Leave sufficient space at the sides and rear of the unit to provide easy access for maintenance and service. The mini-

mum service clearance is shown in the figure.

The mounting procedure for flush mount (option)

Requires flush mount kit OP05-73 (optional supply). Prepare a cutout in the mounting location whose dimensions are as shown in the Figure 3.

Duplexer Unit

General mounting consideration

Locate the unit in a place free of water spray and water splash.

Keep the unit out of direct sunlight because of heat that can build up inside the unit.

Leave a little slack in cables to allow a service technician to move the radio from its usual location with the cables connected. This

lets him make tuning and other adjustments on a "live" set.

Do not install the unit where flammable gases are stored.

Select a well ventilated area.

Ensure the mounting location is strong enough support the weight of the unit (2.7 kg) under the condition of continued vibration nor-

mally encountered aboard the vesssel. If necessay, reinforce the mounting area with a doubling plate or lining block.

• Leave sufficient space at the sides and rear of the unit for maintenance and service purposes and to provide for circulation of cooling air.

Mounting the unit

Mount the unit with four tapping screws supplied.

VHF Antenna

The antenna requirements

Any good quality antenna meeting the requirements shown below may be used. A high-gain antenna is preferable.

Frequency range:

155 to 164 MHz

Impedance:

50 ohms

Polarization:

Vertical

Handling power:

30 W/ min

Quality:

Able to withstand marine environment

Mounting considerations

The antenna should be well separated from nearby antennas, masts, and other interfering objects.

The higher the antenna is mounted above the horizon, the further the communications range.

Mounting procedure

The basic mounting procedure for antennas supplied by FURUNO is as follows, however consult appropriate outline drawing for details.

1.Fasten the antenna bracket to the stanchion.

2.Set the antenna to the antenna bracket and tighten bolts.

3.Screw the coaxial cable plug into the antenna.

CH70 Rx Antenna

The antenna should be well separated from nearby antennas, masts, and other interfering objects.

The mounting procedure is the same as that for the VHF antenna, however consult appropriate outline drawing for details.

Handset Hanger

The handset hanger can be mounted at the front or rear of the transceiver unit. To mount the hanger at the rear of the unit, a connector and connector assembly are required (option). The mounting location should provide easy access to front panel controls while operating the handset. Also, the length of the standard handset cable is 50 cm, so locate the handset hanger within 50 cm of the unit. (Longer cables are available optionally.)

8

Power Supply (option)

For Convention vessels, both AC and DC power must be fed to the FM-8700, via an AC/DC power supply. When AC input fails, DC power is supplied. FURUNO can supply an AC/DC power supply unit, the PR-300.

Mounting considerations

When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points.

Select a location which provides adequate ventilation.

The location must be clean and dry.

The mounting location must be able to support the weight of the unit (14.5 kg) under the continued conditions of vibration normally encountered aboard the vessel. If necessary, reinforce the mounting location.

Mounting

Refer to outline drawing.

Printer Interface (option)

Printer Interface IF-8700 is connected between the printer PP-510 and the transceiver unit. See outline drawing on page D-11.

Printer (option)

Refer to the printer outline drawing on page D-12 for mounting dimensions.

Lay the printer on a tabletop and fix it with printer fixtures 1 and 2.
