Chapter 1: Overview 1 Chapter 1: Overview 1.1 Introduction This handbook provides instructions to assist you in the installation and set up of the following radar scanners: 2D 4D 5S 7S 9S 11S 18" 2 kW Radome Scanner 24" 4 kW Radome Scanner 48" 4 kW Open Array Scanner 72" 4 kW Open Array Scanner 48" 10 kW Open Array Scanner 72" 10 kW Open Array Scanner These scanner units may be connected to any HSB/hsb2 display unit.
2 Pathfinder Radar Scanners CAUTION: Do not use an open array scanner with an SL70, SL70 PLUS or SL70RC PLUS 7" LCD display unit. Failure to observe this may result in permanent damage to these display units. The 10 kW open array scanner requires 24 V or higher; it will not operate on 12 V systems. This handbook is divided into three chapters as follows: Chapter One provides an overview of the scanner installation.
Chapter 1: Overview • • • 3 In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 2 m (7 ft). • More than 2 m (7 ft) 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 equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V (20 V for 10 kW open array scanners) in the power supply to our products, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset.
4 Pathfinder Radar Scanners 1.2 Unpacking and inspecting the components Unpack your system carefully, to prevent damage to the equipment. It is good practice to save the carton and packing for future use, in case you need to return the unit for service. Check that you have all the correct system components. These depend on your system package, as detailed in the following tables. Table 1-1: Radome scanners Item Part No.
Chapter 1: Overview 5 1.3 Selecting the scanner unit site This section provides information that affects the possible locations of the scanner, and its position relative to the display unit and to the power supply. The dimensions of the each scanner unit are shown in the following diagrams.

8 Pathfinder Radar Scanners • • • • • • Access: The scanner unit site should be easily accessible to allow maintenance to be carried out safely. 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.
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. Sufficient clearance must be allowed to fully open the open array pedestal for maintenance.
10 Pathfinder Radar Scanners Setting the radiation plane The scanner unit should be mounted so that the array rotates parallel to the waterline. The radar beam is approximately 25° wide in the vertical direction, providing good target detection during the vessel’s pitching and rolling. 12.5˚ 12.5˚ Waterline Ideal Radiation Plane D3223-2 Planing hull vessels, and some displacement hull vessels, adopt a higher bow angle when the vessel is at its cruising speed.
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. Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, a watertight gland or swan neck tube should be used.
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. Also, you should keep the length of the unscreened coaxial cores to less than 30 mm to maintain EMC conformance.
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.
14 Pathfinder Radar Scanners Power cable The radome radar systems are intended for use on ships’ DC power systems operating in the 10.7 to 32 V DC range (that is, 12 V and 24 V systems, not 32 V systems). A 1.5 m (5 ft) power cable is supplied (with the display unit) for connecting the ship’s DC power to the radar scanner via the display unit. Refer to the HSB/hsb2 Series Display Owner’s Handbook for details on connecting this cable.
