3 Preparation Caution: Under extreme operating conditions, the temperature of the rear heat-sink on this radio may reach a surface temperature that is unsafe to touch. Caution is advised to prevent possible skin burns. ¼¼ Note: You must obtain a Maritime Mobile Service Identity (MMSI) for the vessel before you can use the Digital Selective Calling (DSC) function of this radio. Consult your local maritime authority or radio spectrum authority to obtain your MMSI.
• Cable ties x 10 • Spare 10 A fuse • Transceiver fasteners: • M3.5 x 23 mm selftapping screw x4 • M3.5 x 28 mm machine screw x4 • M3.
4 Installation Positioning Transceiver Make sure that the position of the transceiver: • Is at least 1 m (39 inches) from the VHF antenna. • Allows easy connection to the 12 VDC electrical source, the antenna, and the NMEA 2000 connection. • Is at least 45 cm (18 inches) from any magnetic compass to avoid magnetic deviation of the compass during radio operation. • Provides suitable space for installing the wired handset cradle(s) nearby. (A 20 m extension cable is available as an optional extra.

Installing a wireless handset cradle The wireless handset has a cradle that incorporates inductive charging for the rechargeable battery. 1. Choose a suitable location that provides sufficient room for the handset to fit securely in the charging cradle. 2. Hold the cradle at the chosen location and mark the positions of the fastening holes and the wire hole onto the mounting surface. 3. Drill the holes where marked with a drill bit suited to the selected mounting fasteners. 4.
Installing a wired handset cradle This is the same as installing a wireless handset cradle with the exception that no wiring is required. Fastenings • Top holes 2 x M3.5 x 28 mm machine screws, nuts and washers, or 2 x M3.5 selftapping screws • Bottom hole 1 x M3 x 40 mm machine screw, nut and washers, or 1 x 3 mm x 40 mm selftapping screw. 122.0 mm (4.80”) 191.5 mm (7.54”) 2 x 5.0 mm (0.20”) holes 202.5 mm (7.97”) 20.0 mm (0.79”) 69.0 mm (2.72”) 1 x 3.5 mm (0.
Installing a handset cable connector Each wired handset cable includes a connector assembly that must be installed in a bulkhead, dashboard or other suitable panel.
External speakers installation options Flush mount option 1. Fit the foam gasket to the rear of the speaker and remove the plastic trims that cover the screw holes. 2. Cut a 92 mm (3 5/8”) diameter hole in the mounting surface, allowing space for the speaker’s overall dimensions. 3. Temporarily fit the speaker and mark the four screw holes. 4. Drill holes of appropriate size for fasteners to be used. 5. Fit the speaker and secure with a small amount of sealant applied to the fasteners. 6.
External speaker - surface mount option 1. Position the surface mount box at desired location and mark the four screw holes through the corner tunnels. Make sure the drain hole in box is oriented to be at lowest side. 2. Drill holes of appropriate size for fasteners to be used. 3. Remove the plastic trims that cover the screw holes on speaker front. 4. Drill a hole in the mounting surface for the speaker wire, ensuring hole is near one of the corner screw holes, to prevent cable pinching under speaker. 5.
Transceiver external connectors VHF antenna A suitable radio antenna (not supplied) must be mounted and connected with a PL259 connector before you can operate the radio. Consult your B&G dealer for advice, if necessary. Always mount the VHF antenna as high as possible and at least 1 m (39 inches) from the transceiver. NMEA 2000 (N2K) connector The V90 radio can be connected to an NMEA 2000 network using a cable (not supplied). For further information, see “NMEA 2000 Network” on page 26.
