1.2 Planning the installation

This section provides information and advice for planning the installation of your Display.

EMC Installation Guidelines

All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment.

Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product.

The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment.

For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible:

•Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:

•At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2 m).

•More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.

•The equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode.

•Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.

•If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be reassembled in the same position.

Chapter 1: Preparation for installation	9

Suppression Ferrites

D6626-1

The illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites used with Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine.

Connections to other equipment

If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near to the Raymarine unit.

Where should the Display unit be located?

Your C-Series display can either be flush-mounted or mounted using the trunnion bracket supplied.

Before you install the display, plan its installation, considering:

•Convenience: The contrast and colors seen on all Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) vary slightly with viewing angle and are best viewed perpendicular to the display. The mounting location should be easily accessible to allow operation of the front panel controls. Avoid installing where excessive reflection will occur in normal use.

•Access: There must be sufficient space behind the display to allow cable connections to the rear panel connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cables.

•Interference: The selected location should be far enough away from devices that may cause interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitters/receivers (see EMC Guidelines).

•Magnetic compass: Mount the display at least 3ft (1m) away from a magnetic compass.

•Cable runs: The display should be mounted as near as possible to a Direct Current (DC) power source. All cables should be adequately secured, protected from physical damage and excessive vibration. Avoid running cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects.

•Environmental: The display should be protected from physical damage and excessive vibration. Although the display unit is waterproof, it is good practice to mount it in a protected area away from prolonged and direct exposure to rain and salt spray. The rear of the display should be in a well ventilated space to ensure air circulation to the rear of the unit.

EMC Conformance

Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it is not affected by radio transmissions, engine starting etc.

Chapter 2: System Integration	11

Chapter 2: System Integration

2.1 Introduction

This chapter provides an overview of system integration, you may find that your system does not use all the protocols or contain all the instrumentation that is described in it. However it is hoped that the information supplied will help in your understanding of how systems can be integrated and used successfully.

2.2 What is System Integration?

System integration enables various instruments and displays to communicate with each other and use the collected data to increase the functionality of the system.

This data exchange is only possible if the data gathering is accurate, and transfer between instruments is fast and accurate.

Fast and accurate data transfer is achieved by using a combination of the following data protocols:

•SeaTalk.

•SeaTalk2.

•National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA)0183.

•NMEA 2000.

What is SeaTalk?

SeaTalk

The SeaTalk protocol enables compatible instruments to be connected by a single cable carrying power (12 volts, 150 mA) and data in/out, without a central processor.

Additional instruments and functions can be added to a SeaTalk system, simply by plugging them into the network. SeaTalk equipment can also communicate with other non-SeaTalk equipment via the NMEA 0183 standard, provided a suitable interface is used.

SeaTalk2

SeaTalk2 is an enhanced replacement for SeaTalk and is a proprietary extension to

NMEA 2000 and the proven CAN bus technology. It enables other Raymarine SeaTalk2 devices to talk to each other, whilst maintaining near transparent NMEA 2000 compatibility.
