INSTALLATION

CHAIN COUNTER INSTALLATION TAKES PLACE IN THREE STEPS:

installation of the laps sensor on the windlass, installation of the socket and electrical connections.

Quick

windlasses

All Quick® windlasses come with a laps sensor suitable for use with chain counter CHC 1102 M.

Other windlasses

In order for the chain counter to measure the length of the chain lowered, it has to count the number of revolutions completed by the gear that drives the chain (gypsy). A laps sensor kit is supplied with the chain counter. This kit includes a cylindrical magnet, a magnetic field sensor and two plastic adaptors to be used to fix the sensor. The magnet is to be fixed to the gypsy while the magnetic sensor is to be fixed to the windlass base.

The standard installation procedure is described below. Unfortunately we cannot describe a procedure applicable to all types of windlass. Adapt this procedure to satisfy your own individual requirements.

INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE MAGNET

Take the gypsy off the windlass (consult the windlass user's manual). Find the spot most suitable for the magnet housing based on the following criteria:

• The magnet should not be installed in an area that the chain passes through (outer areas).

• The location should be preferably made in the area where the gypsy is thickest (in order not to weaken the structure).

• Regarding horizontal windlasses, make sure it is located near the edge of the gypsy.

• Regarding vertical windlasses, make certain the sensor is installed on the base at the circumference "traced" by the magnet.

• The magnet can protrude from the gypsy; make certain it does not interfere with the base or sensor.

• The magnet should be as close to the sensor as possible.

Once the hole has been drilled, glue the magnet inside it. Make sure the glue covers the part of the magnet still visible. Use glue designed for metals, resistant to brackish ambients and capable of withstanding temperatures ranging from -30 to +80 °C. Generally speaking, some epoxy-based bicomponent glues satisfy these requirements.

Several magnets can be installed on the same gypsy to increase the precision with which the chain counter reads (not provided). Place any additional magnets around the same circumference equally spaced apart.

INSTALLING THE SENSOR

Locate the most suitable position to secure the sensor to the base according to the following criteria:

• The sensor should not be installed in an area that the chain passes through.

• If holes are made in the base, make sure they do not interfere with normal operation, do not

weaken the structure or cause lubricant to flow out (windlasses with oil-bathed gears).

• Regarding vertical windlasses, make certain the sensor can be installed on the base at the circumference "traced" by the magnet.

• The magnet should be as close to the sensor as possible.

Use the plastic adaptors provided to secure the sensor. Use a sheath to protect the sensor cables.

Once installed, make sure the laps sensor works properly. Place the gypsy so that the magnet is aligned with the sensor and check electrical continuity between the two sensor cables. When the magnet is moved away from the sensor electrical continuity should no longer be present.

CHC1102M GB F - REV005B

INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE SOCKET

The standard installation procedure is described below. Unfortunately we cannot describe a procedure applicable to all types of windlasses. Adapt this procedure to satisfy your own individual requirements. Find the spot most suitable for the socket based on the following criteria:

• The socket is to be installed in an area where it can be easily reached by the user.

• Select a clean, smooth, flat spot.

• A rear point that provides access to the socket's fixing surface must be present for installation and maintenance purposes.

• Leave enough space free behind the installation spot to conveniently run the socket's cable.

• The back of the socket must be protected against contact with water and moisture.

• Pay careful attention when drilling the panel or parts of the boat. This hole should not weaken or break/ crack the boat's structure.

The chain counter meets standard EMC (electromagnetic compatibility). In any case correct installation is fundamental in order not to affect its performance or interfere with operation of instruments found near it.

For this reason the chain counter must be at least:

• 25 cm away from the compass.

• 50 cm away from any radio receivers.

• 1 m away from any radio transmitters (except for SSB).

• 2 m away from any radio transmitters SSB.

• 2 m away from the path of the radar beam.

Installing the socket

After selecting the area where the instrument is to be installed, perform the steps given below:

• Place the drilling template (provided) on the surface where the socket will be installed.

• Mark the center of each hole.

• Make the hole for the passage of the cable of the socket with a milling cutter (25 mm / 1").

• Remove the template and any burrs present in the hole.

• Place the seal at the base of the socket.

• Run the cable through the hole made.

• Fix the socket tightening the 4 screws provided.

CHC1102M GB F - REV005B

INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE SUPPORT

The standard installation procedure is described below. Unfortunately we cannot describe a procedure applicable to all the situations. Adapt this procedure to satisfy your own individual requirements. Find the spot most suitable for the support based on the following criteria:

•

The support must be positioned so that it can easily be reached by the oper

•

Choose a clean, smooth, flat location.

• Check that the back of the panel into which the screws of the support will be tightened is free from passing cables tubes, etc.

• Take particular attention when screwing into the panels or parts of the boat. The screws must not weaken or cause the breakage of structure of the boat.

• Place the support onto the chosen surface

• Fix the support with the 2 screws provided.

CHC1102M GB F - REV005B

INSTALLATION

EXTRACTING THE CHAIN COUNTER FROM THE SUPPORT

To extract the control panel from the support, follow the instructions in the illustrated sequence:

Slide the chain counter from its support by raising it a few centimetres, rotate in either direction and then extract it from the support by raising it.

ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS

• 1 m away from cables that transmit radio signals (except for SSB radio transmitters).

• 2 m away from cables for SSB radio transmitter signals.

Follow the safety precautions and directions given below when making the electrical circuit of the chain counter:

• Turn on power to the chain counter only after having effected and verified that all the electric connections are correct.

• Install a switch to turn on and shut off the chain counter; make sure the switch is in a position that can be easily reached so that, in the event of an emergency, the chain counter can be quickly shut off.

• Install a 4A fast fuse in the chain counter's power supply line.

• The cross-section of the solenoid/reversing solenoid unit and chain counter's power supply cables should be adequately sized according to the length of the cables.

• Do not run the chain counter on power delivered from the motors' batteries group.

• Use an unscreened cable with twisted pair (cross-section area 0.25/ 0.35 mm 100/150 ohm) for the data interface connection (CANH and CANL signals).

• The data cable should not be more than 100 meters long.

• The boat's electrical system should allow other switches to operate the windlass.

INSTALLATION

CHAIN COUNTER CALIBRATION

Before using the chain counter, either the manual or automatic calibration procedure has to be effected. The calibration procedure consists of setting the following data: unit of measurement used by the chain counter, lenght of chain unwound each gypsy lap and number of magnets installed on the gypsy. To calibrate, go to menu CALIBRATION or AUTO CALIBRATE (see chapter SETTING THE CHAIN COUNTER).

MULTIPLE CHAIN COUNTERS

The chain counter is equipped with a CAN BUS data interface that allows several chain counters to be connected and information to be exchanged (CAN network). A MASTER/SLAVE network structure is used, i.e. there is only one main chain counter (MASTER) and all the other chain counters are secondary (SLAVE). The network must have at least one MASTER chain counter. If there is more than one chain counter, instrument CHC1102 M must be set as SLAVE. The instrument CHC 1102 M should be set as MASTER only if it is the only instrument present.

The task of the MASTER chain counter is to align the length of the chain lowered and the operating parameters of all the SLAVE chain counters. The MASTER therefore is used as a reference for all the other SLAVE chain counters. If a parameter in a menu for a SLAVE chain counter is modified, the change is actually made to the MASTER chain counter that will automatically update all the SLAVE chain counters (except for menu PERSONAL SET, UTILITY and CAN CONFIG that cointain particular functions and parameters for every single chain counter not shared in network with the other chain counters).

The MASTER chain counter should be on even if the commands to the windlass are transmitted from SLAVE chain counters or other windlass operation switches.

If the MASTER chain counter should malfunction, one of the SLAVE chain counters can be set up as the MASTER.

Before using the chain counters on the CAN network, make sure the MASTER and SLAVE settings of all the chain counters are correct and that the network works in a trouble-free manner.

WARNING: If any of the instruments installed has a V2.9x version of the software or later release also the other instruments should be updated to the V2.9x version or later release. if in doubt, contact your nearest dealer or Quick

customer service.

CHC1102M GB F - REV005B
