EMC installation guidelines
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to 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
made 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. (1m) from any equipment transmitting, or cables
carrying radio signals, e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the
case of Single Side Band (SSB) radios, the distance should be
increased to 7 ft. (2m).
• More than 7 ft. (2m) 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 to 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.
Suppression Ferrites
The illustration shows typical
cable suppression ferrites used
with Raymarine equipment.
Always use the ferrites supplied
D6626-1
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

Power cable
CAUTION: In-line fuse
If you do not have a breaker in the power circuit, an in-line
2A quick blow fuse should be fitted to the positive (red) lead
of the power cable.
Sirius SR100 weather systems are intended for use on boat’s DC power
systems operating in the range 9 V to 32 V. That is 12 V or 24 V systems.
There is no power switch on the SR100 receiver, it automatically turns on
when the system is powered.
11
The power connection for your system should be made at either the output
of the battery isolator switch, or at a DC power distribution panel. The
power must be fed directly to the system through its own dedicated cable
system and MUST be protected by a thermal circuit breaker or fuse,
installed close to the power connection
A 10 ft. (3m) cable is supplied with your system for connecting to the
boat’s DC power supply as follows:
Red (12/24 V/+)
Black (0V-)
D9077_1
Shield (0V/ ground /-)
Extending the power cable
The power cable may be extended up to a maximum length of 60 ft. (20m)
using a suitable AWG 12 multi-stranded cable.
Note:
If the power connections are accidentally reversed the system will
not work. Raymarine recommends using a multi-meter to ensure
that the power lead is connected with the correct polarity.
Grounding the system
CAUTION: Grounding
This system is not intended for use on ‘positive’ ground
boats. The power cable earth screen must be connected to
the boat’s RF ground system.
Your boat’s power system should be either:
• Negative grounded, with the negative battery terminal connected to
the boat’s ground, or
• Floating with neither battery terminal connected to the boat’s ground.
It is important that an effective RF ground is connected to your SR100
weather system.
You must ground your weather system by connecting the drain wire
(screen) of the power cable to the nearest ground point on your boat’s RF
system.
If you need to extend the wire, the extension wire should be an 8 mm braid
or AWG 10 multi-strand cable.
If your boat does not have an RF system, connect the drain wire to the
negative battery terminal.
SeaTalk

CAUTION: Power supply
Always turn your weather system OFF before carrying out
routine maintenance.
Routine checks
Your Sirius SR100 Weather System is a sealed unit. Routine checks are
therefore limited to the following periodical checks:
• Examine the cables for signs of damage, such as chafing, cuts, or nicks.
• Check that the cable connectors are firmly attached and dust caps are
fitted to any connection not in use.
Cleaning
Your Sirius SR100 Weather System is a sealed unit and does not require
regular cleaning. However, if you find it necessary to clean the unit, follow
these basic procedures:
• Wipe the module clean with a damp cloth.
• If necessary, use iso-propyl alcohol (IPA) or a mild detergent solution to
remove any grease marks.
Troubleshooting
Your Raymarine product, prior to packing and shipping, has been subjected
to comprehensive test and quality assurance programs. However, if the
unit should develop a fault, please refer to the following section to identify
the most likely cause and the corrective action required to restore normal
operation. If you still have a problem after referring to the following
section, contact your local dealer, national distributor or Raymarine Technical Services Department for further advice.
Status LED
The LED on the connector panel provides valuable information on the
status of your SR100 system.
The LED blinks green while the system is operating normally. If the unit
detects a problem, the LED blinks amber to indicate a warning or red to
indicate an error. The pattern of the LED blink is a code representing the
nature of the problem. For multiple warnings/errors the codes are given in
sequence with a 1.5 second pause between the indications.
The following table shows the LED status codes and their meanings:

Red Blinking Internal fault
It is normal during the first minute of initial power that the SR100 status
LED shows no activity and remains off. During the second minute the status
LED will start to flash the amber or red fault strings. Typically, during
normal operation, a flashing green LED will occur within 90 seconds of
initial power. If there is no LED indication of any sort displayed after 90
seconds you should check the in-line fuse or circuit breaker.
A blinking red LED indicates an internal fault condition. If this condition
persists contact Raymarine Technical Services.
