SITING THE FLUXGATE

Mount the unit upright on a flat vertical bulkhead where it will be:

• A safe distance from external magnetic interference: 1m/3ft from VHF, RDF,

loudspeakers, depth sounders, engines, or power cables carrying heavy current

• 3m/10ft from Radar and SSB equipment

• Externally mounted on steel hulled vessels

• Well protected from physical damage

• With the connector downwards

MOUNTING THE FLUXGATE

• Secure the unit in the selected site using the self tapping screws provided

• Route the cable to the Network COMPASS display unit avoiding other cables

carrying heavy currents (for example, engine starter or trim tabs)

• Secure in place using cable clips or tie-wraps

• Avoid bending the cable through a tight radius especially near the connector as

this may damage the wires inside the cable
