Interference and other equipment Wireless products should be installed at least 1m (3 ft) away from: • Other wireless-enabled products. • Transmitting products that send wireless signals in the same frequency range. • Other electrical, electronic or electromagnetic equipment that may generate interference. Interference from other people’s wireless devices can also cause interference with your products.
Note: In areas of extreme EMC interference, some slight interference may be noticed on the product. Where this occurs the product and the source of the interference should be separated by a greater distance. For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever possible: • Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are: – At least 1 m (3.3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas.

3.7 Mounting the smart antenna The supplied smart antenna must be installed in a location which has a clear line of sight to the sky and where it will be away from structure and devices that could cause interference. 1. Drill a 23 mm (0.91 in) hole at the center of the desired mounting location to accept the antenna’s thread and cables. 2. Feed the cable and thread through the gasket. 3.
Chapter 4: Connections Chapter contents • 4.1 General cabling guidance on page 24 • 4.2 Connections overview on page 24 • 4.3 Power connection on page 25 • 4.4 Grounding connection on page 29 • 4.5 Smart antenna connections on page 30 • 4.6 Boat Wi-Fi antenna connections on page 31 • 4.7 RayNet connections on page 31 • 4.8 SeaTalkng connection on page 32 • 4.
4.1 General cabling guidance Cable types and length It is important to use cables of the appropriate type and length. • Unless otherwise stated only use cables supplied by Raymarine. • Where it is necessary to use non-Raymarine cables, ensure that they are of correct quality and gauge for their intended purpose. (e.g.: longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize voltage drop along the run).
8. Power connection 9. SeaTalkng ® connection 10. RayNet connections 11. Input connections 12. Output connections 4.3 Power connection The supplied power cable must be connected to a 12 V dc or 24 V dc power supply, this can be achieved by connecting directly to a battery, or via the distribution panel. 1. YachtSense ™ Link 2. Power cable (supplied) 3. Ground wire connects to RF ground point, if no ground point is available connect to the battery negative (-) terminal. 4.
Power distribution Recommendations and best practice. • The product is supplied with a power cable, either as a separate item or a captive cable permanently attached to the product. Only use the power cable supplied with the product. Do NOT use a power cable designed for, or supplied with, a different product. • Refer to the Power connection section for more information on how to identify the wires in your product’s power cable, and where to connect them.
1 Positive (+) bar 2 Negative (-) bar 3 Circuit breaker 4 Waterproof fuse holder containing a suitably-rated inline fuse must be fitted. For suitable fuse rating, refer to: In-line fuse and thermal breaker ratings. Important: Observe the recommended fuse / breaker ratings provided in the product’s documentation, however be aware that the suitable fuse / breaker rating is dependent on the number of devices being connected.
1 Waterproof fuse holder containing a suitably-rated inline fuse must be fitted. For suitable fuse rating, refer to: In-line fuse and thermal breaker ratings. 2 Product power cable. 3 Drain wire connection point. Battery connection scenario A: Suitable for a vessel with a common RF ground point. In this scenario, if your product’s power cable is supplied with a separate drain wire then it should be connected to the vessel’s common ground point.
Important: To ensure power cables (including any extension) are of a sufficient gauge, ensure that there is a continuous minimum voltage of 10.8 V dc at the end of the cable where it enters the product’s power connector, even with a fully flat battery at 11 V dc. (Do not assume that a flat battery is at 0 V dc. Due to the discharge profile and internal chemistry of batteries, the current drops much faster than the voltage.
3. Grounding strap connected to vessel RF ground (not supplied) 4. Grounding screw and washers (supplied fitted) Note: To connect the grounding point an M3 ring crimp and suitable cable is required to create an grounding strap. The grounding cable is connected using the M3 screw and washers that are supplied fitted to the grounding point. 4.5 Smart antenna connections The supplied smart antenna is connected to the antenna connections on the top of the YachtSense ™ Link.
4.6 Boat Wi-Fi antenna connections The supplied Wi-Fi antennas are connected to the BOAT WLAN connections on the top of the YachtSense ™ Link. Connect the antennas by screwing them in clockwise until hand tight. 4.7 RayNet connections Up to 4 RayNet devices can be connected to the YachtSense ™ Link using the RayNet connections. RayNet networks can also be created or expanded by connecting the YachtSense ™ Link to a network switch such as the HS5.
4.8 SeaTalkng connection The YachtSense ™ Link cam be connected to SeaTalkng ® network using the SeaTalkng ® connections. Connection to SeaTalkng ® networks enables compatible data to be received and transmitted by the YachtSense ™ Link. The SeaTalkng ® connection also enables communications with YachtSense ™ Digital Control Systems. Note: SeaTalkng networks require a dedicated 12 V dc power supply and are not supplied power via the YachtSense ™ Link SeaTalkng connection. 4.
