CS68 ECDIS
1.3 Unpacking and handling
Care should be taken when unpacking and handling the
equipment. A visual inspection should be made to see that the
equipment has not been damaged during shipment and that all
components and parts are present.
4 20221933 / E
1.4 Location of the units
The units included in the CS68 system should be mounted with
special regard to the units’ environmental protection,
temperature range and cable length.
The CS68 units are designed to operate within the temperature
range of 0°C to +55°C. However, it is recommended that
adequate ventilation/air-conditioning is provided in order to
keep the ambient operating temperature at +20°C.
It is also recommended that the area around the units is kept
relatively free from dust and build-up static electricity.

The unit should be mounted as close as possible to the FB200
Filter box as the cable length between FB200 and MC50 is
limited to 0.45 m.
The mounting location should allow access to the power button,
the DVD and the floppy drive. It is also necessary to have
working area when replacing the air inlet fans’ dust filter.
Refer dimensional drawing showing recommended working
area, page 67 onwards.
6 20221933 / E

deck with 6 bolts.
4 Reinstall the computer cabinet to
the mounting plate.
Monitor
One or two Hatteland Display series 1 Redesign 19”, 20.1”, 23”
and 27” monitor must be part of the ECDIS system. The
monitors must have equal size.
A separate Instruction manual is delivered with the monitor. This
manual includes installation procedures as well as dimensional
drawings.
The monitor must be validated to matrox P690 display adapter
to be ECDIS approved!
The FB200 is preferred to be mounted vertically, and should not
be installed close to heavy transformers or similar.
FB200 is secured to the bulkhead with four screws. Refer
dimensional drawing on page 72.
Use the following procedure when mounting the unit:
FB200 Filterbox
20221933 / E 7
CS68 ECDIS
The Chart Interface unit is preferred to be mounted vertically.

Alarm reset unit
The Alarm Reset unit is used in different chart systems, and it is
therefore delivered with different text stickers to match the
system.
Note If the Alarm Reset unit is used in an ECDIS system, the ECDIS
sticker should be used. If used in an ECDIS back-up system, the
CS68 sticker is to be used.
Use the following procedure when mounting the Alarm reset
unit:
Cherry keyboard and TrackMan® wheel
The Cherry keyboard and the TrackMan wheel may be fixed to
the desk by using the included Velcro fasteners.
Note To fulfill the ECDIS regulations, the Cherry keyboard and the

GROUND
TERMINALS
1.6 Grounding the units
The computer, Chart interface unit and FB200 should have a
proper ground connection from the units’ ground terminal. The
wires should be as short as possible and have a cross section of
at least 16mm2 (gauge).

Main power supply
CS68 system is supplied with 24V DC. The power has to be
connected via the FB200 Filter box.
Caution Do not connect 24V DC to the CS68 system without using
FB200 filter box. Doing so may course electromagnetic
interference!
1 Remove the cover on the FB200, and connect the cable
from 24V DC supply according to the labelling on the
terminals as shown on the figure below.
Note This cable is not supplied with the equipment! It should have a
cross section of at least 2.5mm2 (gauge).
2 Connect the cable from FB200 to the 24V DC power-in
jack on the MC50 computer.
3 Secure the cable to the fixing bracket to avoid that
vibration should cause the plug to loose connection.
Alarm supply
24V alarm supply from the vessel’s alarm supply has to be
connected to TB9 in the Chart Interface unit. This alarm supply
is used to activate an alarm if the main power supply to the CS
system is lost.
12 20221933 / E
INSTALLATION
1.9 MC50/Chart Interface unit cable connections
Connections between the MC50 computer and the Chart
Interface unit are made by three cables. The cables are pre-made
from factory.
For cables lengths, refer Cabling section, page 49.
Refer also to CS68 Cabling diagram, page 77.

1.12 Connecting the monitor(s)
If two monitors are used they can be used in Clone or Dual
mode.
In Clone mode both monitors display the same image.
In Dual mode the second monitor gives the operator an
additional workspace for route planning and head up display
while normal system operation is maintained on the primary
display.
It has to be decided during installation of the system if the
second monitor should be used in Clone mode or Dual mode.
Cabling
It is possible to connect 2 monitors to a CS68 ECDIS and 4
monitors to a PLECDIS
TM
system. A DVI cable is connected to
the DVI port (J4) on MC50 MKII.
A 9-pin serial cable must be connected between COM 9 or
COM 10 on MC50 MKII and the monitor(s).
If longer cable lengths are required, a high quality VGA cable
must be used together with the supplied DVI/VGA converters.
Note Do not use the VGA output on J1 on the rear of MC50 MKII.
According to Simrad CS68 ECDIS certificate only DVI ports on
J4( can be used to connect one or two ECDIS compliant
Hatteland series 1 RD monitors.
Display configuration
The system is pre-configured to use 2 JH 19T14 MMD, and to
use these in Clone mode.
The following monitors from Hatteland Display are supported:
JH19T14 MMD (1280*1024 – 60 Hz)
JH20T17 MMD (1600*1200 – 60 Hz)
16 20221933 / E
JH23T12 MMD (1600*1200 – 60 Hz)
JH27T11 MMD (1920*1200 – 60 Hz)
INSTALLATION
The support site is authorized for OEM, dealers and distributors. A
password is required to get access to this web site.
To configure these alternative monitors and change from Clone
to Dual mode the additional ECDIS Admin tool must be used.
This sw must be downloaded from Simrad’s support site
(http://www.simrad-yachting.com/en/Support/).
The selected COM port(s) need to be defined in the System
Configuration dialog to make sure that automatically backlight
adjustment are done according to ECDIS regulations.
Refer Output configuration, page 37.
20221933 / E 17
CS68 ECDIS
The CS68 system can be connected to
Internet to utilize online chart update.
The system is connected by using a
shielded Ethernet cable.
NOTE:
Pin 1 and 3 or pin 2 and 6 must be
broken!
To fulfill the ECDIS requirements the system must be connected via
a switch that electrically separates the ECDIS from the Internet!
1.13 Connecting the system to Internet
The Ethernet cable must be equipped with one of the supplied
ferrite beds (SFC-10).
