Magnetic compass: Mount the scanner unit at least 1 m away from a magnetic compass. Cable run: The maximum length of cable between the display unit and the scanner unit should not normally exceed 20 m (60 ft) for radome scanners, or 15 m (45 ft) for open array scanners.
81154_6.book Page 9 Wednesday, October 10, 2001 10:48 AM Chapter 1: Overview 9 For open array scanners you should also consider the following points: • • • Mounting Platform: The platform must be mechanically secure and capable of supporting the mass and inertia of the open array scanner. The complete unit weighs: 48" scanner - 30 kg (66.2 lb); 72" scanner - 33.4 kg (73.7 lb). The site must be clear of ropes and moving rigging.

The radar beam is approximately 25° wide in the vertical direction, providing good target detection during the vessel’s pitching and rolling. 12.5˚ 12.
81154_6.book Page 11 Wednesday, October 10, 2001 10:48 AM Chapter 1: Overview 11 1.4 Cable runs You need to consider the following before installing the system cables: • • • • • You need to fit the inter-unit cable and the power cable. All cables should be adequately clamped and protected from physical damage and exposure to heat - avoid running cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects. Acute bends must be avoided.
81154_6.book Page 12 Wednesday, October 10, 2001 10:48 AM 12 Pathfinder Radar Scanners If you are mounting the scanner on the mast of a sailboat, and will need to unstep the mast, you should install a suitable junction box inside the boat. On a radome scanner, the junction box should provide an 11- or 13way terminal strip, depending on the number of power cores in your cable, with a 10 A rating.
81154_6.book Page 13 Wednesday, October 10, 2001 10:48 AM Chapter 1: Overview 13 Radome scanner cables Inter-unit cable The length of the supplied cable should be sufficient to complete the cable run required on most small vessels. For longer runs, additional or replacement cables are available, which have 4 power cores to minimize voltage drops over the longer cable run: these optional cables include 5 m and 10 m extension cables, and a 25 m replacement cable.
