The radar antenna emits electromagnetic
radio frequency (RF) energy which can be
harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never
look directly into the antenna aperture from
a close distance while the radar is in
operation or expose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close distance.
Distances at which RF radiation levels of
100 and 10 W/m

1.1Scanner Unit
Mounting considerations
•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 all-round view.
(a) On bridge (b) Common mast (c) Radar mast
•No funnel, mast or derrick should be within the vertical beamwidth of the scanner in the bow direction, especially zero degrees ±5°, to prevent blind sectors
and false echoes on the radar picture.
MOUNTING
Figure 1-1 Mounting methods
•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.
•Locate the antenna of a direction finder clear of the scanner unit to prevent
interference to the direction finder. A separation of more than two meters is
recommended.
•T o 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,1.70 m (FR-21 15), 2.10 m (FR-2125), Steering compass, 1.90 m (FR-2115), 1.20 m (FR-2125).
•Do not paint the radiator aperture, to ensure proper emission of the radar waves.
•The signal cable run between the scanner and the display is available in lengths
of 15 m (standard), 20 m, and 30 m. Whatever length is used it must be unbroken; namely, no splicing allowed.
•The scanner base is made of cast aluminum. To prevent electrolytic corrosion
of the scanner base, use the seal washers and corrosion-proof rubber mat and
ground the unit with the ground wire (supplied).
•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.
•Leave sufficient space around the unit for maintenance and servicing. See the
scanner unit outline drawing for recommended maintenance space.

Assembling the scanner unit
The scanner unit consists of the scanner radiator and the scanner unit chassis,
and they are packed separately. Fasten the scanner radiator to the scanner unit
chassis as follows:
1. For the XN20AF, XN24AF, attach two guide pins to the underside of the scanner radiator.
2. Remove the waveguide cap from the radiator bracket. The cap may be discarded.
3. Coat the waveguide flange with anticorrosive sealant as shown in Figure 1-2.

5. Grease the O-ring and set it to the O-ring groove of the radiator flange.
6. Set the scanner radiator to the radiator bracket.
7. For the XN20AF , XN24AF, coat hex bolts (M8 x 40, slotted washer head, 8pcs.)
with anticorrosive sealant and use them to loosely fasten the scanner radiator
to the scanner unit chassis. For the XN12AF, coat hex bolts, flat washers and
spring washers with anticorrosive sealant and use them to loosely fasten the
scanner radiator to the scanner unit chassis.
8. Remove two guide pins (inserted at step 1), and then tighten fixing bolts.
CAUTION
Be sure to remove the guide pins.
Injury may result if the guide pins loosen
and fall.

1.2Display Unit
Before mounting the display unit
If Gyro Converter GC-8 (option) is to be used, install and setup the GYRO CONVERTER Board before mounting the display unit, because of the difficulty involved
in doing it after the display unit is installed. Instructions for installation and setup
are in Chapter 4.
Mounting considerations
When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:
•Select a location where the display unit can be viewed and operated conveniently and where the screen can be viewed while facing towards the bow.
•Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and way from heat sources because of
heat that can build up inside the cabinet.
•Locate the equipment away from places subject to water splash and rain.
•The display unit is very heavy. Be sure the mounting location is strong enough
to support the weight of the unit under the continued vibration which is normally
experienced on the ship. If necessary reinforce the mounting location.
•Determine the mounting location considering the length of the signal cable between the scanner unit and the display unit. (The signal cable comes in lengths
of 15, 20 or 30 meters; maximum 100 meters).
•Leave sufficient space on the sides and rear of the unit to facilitate maintenance. Also, leave a foot or so of “service loop” in cables behind the unit so it
can be pulled forward for servicing or easy removal of connectors.
•A magnetic compass will be affected if placed too close to the display unit.
Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass: Standard compass, 1.70 m, Steering compass, 0.90 m.

2.3Changing AC Power Specification
For 100 V AC or 220 V AC power , add or delete jumper wires on the PTU Board and
change the power fuses inside the display unit as shown in the table below according to ship’s mains. The figure below shows the location of the power fuses and the
jumper wires on the PTU Board.
Table 2-2 Jumper wire setting on the PTU board, fuse rating and power specification
Tune the radar as follows: Press [RADAR MENU] [0] [0] [2] [0] [0] [0] (TUNE
INITIALIZE on RADAR 3 menu) and press the [ENT] key. Also, confirm that "2.
MODEL" is set to "FR-2115, 2125" on the INITIAL SETTING 4 menu, following
paragraph 3.2 and then pressing [RADAR MENU], [0],[0],[0],[2],[0],[0],[0]. Trouble
may result if the setting is wrong.
3.2Accessing Menus for Initialization and Adjustment
To access them do the following:
1. Turn on the power.
2. Press the [RADAR MENU] key five times while pressing and holding down
the [HL OFF] key. A beep sounds to confirm operation.
Restoring default settings
1. Press [RADAR MENU] [0] [0] [0] [2] [0] [0] [0] to display the INITIAL SETTING
4 menu.
2. Press the [0] key to select FACTORY DEFAULT.
3. Press the [ENTER] key five times, and turn the power off and on again.
4. "Initializing" appears during restoring. It takes about 90 seconds to restore the
default settings, after which the normal display appears. Confirm that
"2. MODEL" is set to "FR-2115,2125" on the INITIAL SETTING 4 menu.
3.3Adjusting Video Signal Level
When the signal cable is very long, the video amplifier input level decreases,
shrinking target echoes. To prevent this, confirm (and adjust if necessary) video
amplifier input level.
1. Connect an oscilloscope to TP6 on the INT Board (03P9252) in the display
unit.
2. Transmit on the 12 nm range.
3-1
Page 34
3. Adjust R21 on the INT Board so the value of TP6 is 4 Vpp. (For remote display, adjust R134 on the INT Board.)
Figure 3-1 Display pedestal
3.4Heading Alignment
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 line (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.
