Installation Instructions Part 1

G-Series Installation & Commissioning 8
i. At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables
carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and
antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be
increased to 7 ft. (2 m).
ii. More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar
beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees
above and below the radiating element.
• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used
for engine start. This is important to prevent erratic behavior
and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have
a separate battery.
• Raymarine specified cables are used.
• Cables are not cut or extended unless doing so is detailed in the
installation manual.
Remember
Where constraints on the installation prevent any of the above
recommendations:
• Always allow the maximum separation possible between differ-
ent items of electrical equipment. This will provide the best
conditions for EMC performance for the installation.
Suppression ferrites
Raymarine cables may be fitted with suppression ferrites. These
are important for correct EMC performance. Any ferrite removed to
facilitate installation must be replaced in the original position imme-
diately installation is complete.
• Use only ferrites of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine au-
thorized dealers.
Connections to other equipment
If Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment
using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a Raymarine suppres-
sion ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near the
Raymarine unit.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equip-
ment Directive
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)
Directive requires the recycling of waste electrical and
electronic equipment. Whilst the WEEE Directive does not
apply to some of Raymarine’s products, we support its pol-
icy and ask you to be aware of how to dispose of this
product.
The crossed out wheeled bin symbol, illustrated above, and found
on our products signifies that this product should not be disposed of
in general waste or landfill.
Please contact your local dealer, national distributor or Raymarine
Technical Services for information on product disposal.
Water ingress
As it exceeds the water proof rating capacity outlined by standards
CFR46 / IPX7, subjecting any Raymarine equipment to commercial
high pressure washing equipment may cause subsequent water
intrusion and failure of the equipment. Raymarine will not warranty
equipment subjected to high pressure washing
