4.1 General cabling guidance Cable types and length It is important to use cables of the appropriate type and length • Unless otherwise stated use only standard cables of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine. • Ensure that any non-Raymarine cables are of the correct quality and gauge. For example, longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize voltage drop along the run. • Always use an RS232/NMEA converter with optical isolation on the signal lines.
4.2 Connection overview Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector to network switch A network patch cable is required for connecting the PoE injector to the network switch. Network patch cables are available in a variety of lengths. Video cables Video cables are not supplied with the product. Please contact your dealer for suitable cables and adaptors. Raymarine recommends the use of a BNC terminated RG59 75ohm (or better) coaxial cable. 5 SeaTalkhs patch cables 1 2 3 4 D11957-1 1. Power and drain 2.

Sharing a breaker 4.4 JCU Connection Where more than 1 piece of equipment shares a breaker you must provide protection for the individual circuits. E.g. by connecting an in-line fuse for each power circuit. The JCU (Joystick Control Unit) can be connected as part of the SeaTalkhs network. Alternatively it can be connected directly to the thermal camera provided that there are no other camera controllers on the system.
Cables SeaTalkhs connection Use a SeaTalkhs patch cable. These are available in various lengths from your dealer. JCU to PoE injector Use the 1.5 m (5 ft) PoE cable supplied with the JCU for this connection, if you require a different length contact your dealer for suitable cables. Connection direct to camera Direct connection is only valid if the JCU is the only controller and there are no displays with the thermal camera application. 1 2 3 D11979-1 1. Thermal camera 2. JCU 3.
Chapter 5: Installation Chapter contents • • 5.1 Camera mounting on page 30 5.
5.1 Camera mounting Location requirement • If installing an optional JCU, select a location for the JCU that is at least 11 cm (4.33 in.) from any magnetic compass. When planning the installation location, consider the following points: Camera orientation • The camera is waterproof, and appropriate for above decks mounting. • When mounting the camera in a ball-down position, ensure that the camera is installed with adequate drainage so that standing water does not collect above the cable glands.
• Note the camera forward markings on the camera base, and make sure the template is oriented properly relative to the bow of the vessel. This is affected by whether the camera is to be mounted ball-up or ball-down. 2. Fasten the camera unit to the riser using the 6x threaded bolts and a suitable thread-locking compound. 2. Install the 6x threaded studs into the base of the camera with thread-locking compound. If required, you can use studs of a different length to suit your installation. 3. 4. 5. 6.
5.2 JCU Mounting Location requirements When planning the installation location, consider the following points: • Select a position on your vessel that is close to the monitor that displays the T-Series camera video output. • Ensure the JCU is mounted at least 55 cm (21.7") away from any equipment fitted with a magnetic compass.

7 HOME 6.3 Power up and standby • Momentary press – Return camera to home position. When the breaker connecting power to the camera is switched on, the camera will run a boot up sequence lasting for about 1 minute, after which the camera will be in Standby mode. In order for the camera to operate, you must bring the camera out of standby mode using the camera controls. • Press and hold – Set current position as camera home. • 4 x press – Reset the camera (realign home and stow positions).
Note: The power menu is only displayed on the JCU's LCD display. 6.4 Camera control Pan, tilt and zoom The camera controls allow for pan and tilt (elevation) of the camera, as well as zoom (magnification) of the thermal image. D11973-1 • Pan continuously through 360º. • Tilt (elevate) to ±90º relative to the horizon. • Zoom (magnify) the thermal camera image.
Thermal camera home position The home position is a preset position for the camera. The home position usually defines a useful reference point — for example, straight ahead and level with the horizon. You can set the home position as required and to return the camera to the home position at any time. 4. Select Disable Stabilization to turn off mechanical stabilization. 5. Press MENU to cancel the on-screen menu.
6.5 Image adjustments White-hot thermal image. Thermal camera scene presets Scene presets enable you to quickly select the best image setting for the current environmental conditions. During normal operation the thermal camera automatically adjusts itself to provide a high-contrast image optimized for most conditions. The Scene presets provide 4 additional settings that may provide better imagery in certain conditions. The 4 modes are: Black-hot thermal image.
Thermal and visible-light operation 6.6 System reset “Dual payload” thermal cameras are equipped with 2 cameras — a thermal imaging (infrared) camera and a visible-light camera. Resetting the JCU Thermal camera — provides night-time imagery, based on temperature differences between objects. Thermal imaging produces a clear image even in total darkness. Visible-light camera — provides black and white (or greyscale) imagery during the day and in low-light conditions.
6.7 Setup menus Set symbology menu The setup menus provide a range of tools and settings to configure the thermal camera. Menu item / Description The menus can be accessed from any controller on the system. The menus are overlaid onto the video image. Enable / Disable PC Icon Note: The on-screen menus only appear on the thermal camera image. They are not available when viewing the visible light image (on dual payload models).
