PRECAUTIONS

Common (MXP-5000/MXD-5000/EX-3187):

R WARNING! NEVER let metal, wire or other ob-

jects touch any internal part or terminals of these units.
This may result in an electric shock.

R WARNING! NEVER touch these units with wet

hands. This may result in an electric shock or damage
these units.

DO NOT place these units near heating equipment

or in direct sunlight or where hot or cold air blows di­rectly onto them.

DO NOT use or place these units in areas with

temperature below –20˚C (–4˚F) or above +60˚C
(+140˚F).

DO NOT place these units in areas that will block air

passage or put anything around these units. This will
obstruct heat dissipation.

DO NOT

cohol to clean these units, as they will damage these
units’ surfaces.

use harsh solvent such as benzine or al-

KEEP these units out of the reach of children.

For MXP-5000 (Main unit):

R WARNING! NEVER apply AC voltage to the DC

input terminals of the Main unit. This may pose a fire
hazard, result in an electric shock or damage the Main
unit.

R WARNING! NEVER apply more than 32 V DC

to the DC input terminals of the Main unit or use re­verse polarity. This may pose a fire hazard or damage
the Main unit.

KEEP the Main unit away from heavy rain, and never

immerse it in the water.

The Main unit meets IPX4 requirements for splash

resistance when the supplied connection cables are
connected, and the connector cap is installed on the
other connector.
However, if it is dropped, splash resistance cannot be
guaranteed because of possible damage to the case
or the waterproof seals.

For MXD-5000 (Display unit):

DO NOT place the Display unit in excessively dusty

environments.

BE CAREFUL!

ments for waterproof protection
and the access cover on the Front panel is closed.
However, if the Display unit has been dropped, water­proof protection cannot be guaranteed because of pos­sible damage to the Display unit’s case or the water­proof seal.

The Display unit meets IPX7 require-

when the rear cover,

For EX-3187 (Display extension unit):

KEEP the Display extension unit away from heavy

rain, and never immerse it in the water.

The Display extension unit meets IPX4 requirements

for splash resistance when the connection cables are
connected.
However, if it is dropped, splash resistance cannot be
guaranteed because of possible damage to the case
or the waterproof seals.

R WARNING! NEVER cut the DC power cable

between the DC plug and fuse holder. If an incorrect
connection is made after cutting, the Main unit may be
damaged.

R WARNING! NEVER open the bottom cover of

the Main unit. There are no user adjustment points.
This may result in an electric shock and incorrect reas­sembly may cause a fire hazard.

DO NOT place the Main unit in excessively dusty en-

vironments.

■ Power source requirement

CAUTION: Before connecting the DC power cable,

check the following important items. Make sure:

• Output voltage of the power source is 12 V/24 V

DC.

• DC power cable polarity is correct.

White : Positive + terminal

Black : Negative _ terminal
Green* : Ground

* Main unit side is thinner black.

• Fuse rating of the DC power cable is correct. (The

15 A fuse is pre-installed.)

7.5 A : For a 24 V power source
15 A : For a 12 V power source

■ Ground connection

To prevent electrical shocks and other problems,

ground the Main unit through the [GND] terminal. For

best results, connect a heavy gauge wire or strap to
the nearest grounding point on the boat. The distance

between the [GND] terminal and the ground point

should be as short as possible.

INSTALLATION AND CONNECTIONS

■ Installing the Display unit

DLocation

Select a place for installation which meets the follow­ing important conditions:

➥ The display unit should be placed near the wheel in

the cabin so that the operator may easily view the
radar screen while facing the bow.

➥ To minimize interference, KEEP the unit AT LEAST

THE COMPASS SAFE DISTANCE away from the
compass and the navigation receiver. The distance
is stated on the rear panel serial number label.

➥ Select a position where there is no danger of salt or

fresh water spray or immersion.

➥ Select a location where it is easy to perform mainte-

nance or adjustments after installation.

➥ Select a location which can support the weight of

the display unit.

➥ DO NOT select areas subject to extreme heat, cold,

vibrations or direct sunlight.

• Mounting Bracket Diagram (Fig. 1)

DMounting

The mounting bracket supplied with the display unit al­lows “dashboard” or “overhead” mounting.

q Hold the mounting bracket up to the selected loca-

tion, and mark pilot holes for the five installation
bolts.

w Drill five holes, according to the diagram, as shown

to the left. (Fig. 1)

e Install the bracket using the bolts, nuts or washers.

To install the display cable though a hole in a wall
where as the display connector cannot pass through

the hole, remove the cable from the EX-3187 or the

Display unit. Then pass it through the hole, as shown
below.

CAUTION: NEVER cut the display cable or display

extension cable.

q Remove the four screws from the corners of the

EX-3187.

w Unscrew the Sealing Nut from the Sealing tube.
e Unscrew the inside Nut from the Sealing tube.
r Remove the five connectors from the board, as

shown below.

t Remove the cable from the EX-3187’s case.
y After installing the removed cable at the desired

place, replace the connectors and the Sealing Nut.

BE CAREFUL! The EX-3187 meets IPX4 require-
ment for splash resistant when the connecting the
connection cables. However, once the unit has been
opened, splash resistance cannot be guaranteed.

NOTE: About Display Cable

The Display cable can also be removed to install

Continued, reliable operation of the main unit depends
on how you care for your equipment.
The simple maintenance tips that follow can help you
save time and money, and avoid premature equipment
failures.

MAINTENANCE AND OPTIONS

■ Periodic maintenance

q Keep the equipment as clean as possible.

• Use a soft cloth to remove dirt, dust and water.

w Check all hardware for loose screws, bolts, etc.
e Check cables and terminal connections.

■ Fuse replacement
