Intended Use
The scanner units detailed in this handbook form part of navigational radar
systems intended for light marine use. These radar systems are only an aid to
navigation.
WARNING:
The 4D radome scanner connected to an SL70, SL70 PLUS or SL70RC
PLUS 7" LCD display unit DOES NOT conform to the EU directive 95/
5/EC, therefore such a system cannot be installed on a vessel
within the EU.
Safety Notices
This radar equipment must be installed and operated in accordance with the
instructions contained in this manual. Failure to do so can result in personal injury
and/or navigational inaccuracies. In particular:
1. High Voltage. The scanner unit contains high voltages. Adjustments require
specialized service procedures and tools only available to qualified service
technicians – there are no user serviceable parts or adjustments. The operator
should never remove the scanner unit internal covers or attempt to service the
equipment.
2. Electromagnetic Energy. The radar scanner transmits electromagnetic
energy. It is important that the radar is turned off whenever personnel are
required to come close to the scanner to perform work on the scanner assembly or
associated equipment.
It is recommended that the radar scanner is mounted out of range of personnel
(above head height).
Do not look directly at the antenna at close range as your eyes are the most
sensitive part of the body to electromagnetic energy.
When properly installed and operated, the use of this radar will conform to the
requirements of ANSI/IEEE C95.1-1992 Standard for Safety Leve ls with Respec t to
Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 Hz to 300 GHz and
ii Pathfinder Radar Scanners
NRPB, Board Statement on Restrictions on Human Exposure to Static and Time
Varying Electromagnetic Fields and Radiation, Doc
NRPB, No. 5 (1993)
.
3. Navigation Aid. This radar unit is only an aid to navigation. Its accuracy can
be affected by many factors, including equipment failure or defects,
environmental conditions, and improper handling or use. It is the user’s
responsibility to exercise common prudence and navigational judgements. This
radar unit should not be relied upon as a substitute for such prudence and
judgement.

Preface
This handbook describes the following Raymarine Pathfinder radar scanners:
2D 18" 2 kW Radome Scanner
4D 24" 4 kW Radome Scanner
5S 48" 4 kW Open Array Scanner
7S 72" 4 kW Open Array Scanner
9S 48" 10 kW Open Array Scanner
11S 72" 10 kW Open Array Scanner
These scanner units may be connected to any HSB/hsb
In addition, the 2D radome scanner unit may be connected to an SL70, SL70 PLUS
or SL70RC PLUS 7" LCD display.
WARNING:
The 4D radome scanner connected to an SL70, SL70PLUS or SL70RC
PLUS 7” LCD display unit DOES NOT conform to the EU Directive
95/5/EC, therefore such a system cannot be installed on a vessel
within the EU.
A 4D radome scanner connected to any other Pathfinder display
unit including, SL70M PLUS, SL70MRC PLUS, SL70C PLUS and
SL70CRC PLUS conforms in full and is not affected.
CAUTION:
The open array scanners must not be used with the SL70, SL70
PLUS, SL70RC PLUS or Autohelm 7" LCD Display Unit. This may
result in damage to the display due to the high power
requirements of the open array scanner.

or C-Series display unit.
The handbook contains very important information on the installation and
operation of your new equipment. In order to obtain the best results in operation
and performance, please read this handbook thoroughly.
Raymarine’s Technical Support representatives or your local dealer will be
available to answer any questions you may have.
Display Software Version
For full operation of the Pathfinder scanners, the display unit requires an
appropriate software version. For new displays, the correct software version is
normally already installed in the display unit and is fully compatible with the
Pathfinder scanners.
Early display units may not have the correct software and will therefore require
upgrading.
iv Pathfinder Radar Scanners
The software version can be confirmed by switching-on the display and checking
the version number during the magnetron warm-up sequence.
Note:
If a scanner unit is not connected the version number is only displayed for 10 sec-
onds.
Where, necessary Software Upgrade Kits are available from your dealer,
distributor or from Raymarine. We recommend that where a repeater display is
fitted, both the repeater and the master display are upgraded.
C-Series Display Compatibility
To achieve full compatibility with a C-Series Display, your Raymarine radar
scanner may require upgrading. Please refer to the C-Series Display
Handbook
The open array scanners cannot be powered from a C-Series display unit; they
must be connected to ship’s power using a split pedestal cable or pedestal
adaptor cable. Full details are provided in this handbook.
, or contact Technical Support for details.
Owner’s
Warranty
To register your Pathfinder Radar Scanner ownership, please take a few minutes
to fill out the warranty registration card found at the end of this handbook. It is
very important that you complete the owner information and return the card to
the factory in order to receive full warranty benefits.
The radome scanner package includes a barcode label indicating the serial
number of the unit. This label should be stuck to the warranty registration card.
The open array scanner has two barcode labels indicating the serial numbers of
the pedestal and the antenna units. Both labels should be stuck to the warranty
registration card.
EMC Conformance
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry
standards for use in the leisure marine environment.
The design and manufacture of Raymarine equipment and accessories confor m to
the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct
installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised.
