AIS Receiver FA-30 Mounting considerations, mounting The FA-30 can be mounted on a desktop, deck or on a bulkhead. When selecting a mounting location, keep the following points in mind: • The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable. • Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents. • The mounting location should be well ventilated. • Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal. • Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field-generating equipment such as motors and generators.
1.3 Whip Antenna Location The location of the AIS VHF-antenna should be carefully considered. Digital communication is more sensitive than analog/voice communication to interference created by reflections in obstructions like masts and booms. It may be necessary to relocate the VHF radiotelephone antenna to minimize interference effects.
1.4 Wiring Connect power source, LAN cable, VHF antenna and ground wire as shown below. VHF WHIP ANTENNA (option) COAXIAL CABLE 5D-2V (local supply) AIS RECEIVER PC, HUB, NAVNET GROUND WIRE IV-1.25sq LAN CABLE P5E-4PTX-BL (2 m or 10 m) NAVNET, SENSOR POWER CABLE (supplied) RS-422 RATING *2 *1 12-24 VDC RED + - GROUND BLACK Switchboard breaker *1 Supply from breaker on switchboard. *2 If COM lines (connection for NavNet, sensor) are not used, tape them to prevent short circuit.
Attaching coaxial connector (M-P-5) to coaxial cable The antenna cable (coaxial cable, type 5D-2V) is terminated at the FA-30 with an M-P-5 coaxial connector. Attach the connector to the cable as shown below. 30 mm 7 mm 2 mm Sheath Braided shield Fasten tightly. Contact sleeve Solder here. Conductor Cut conductor here. Coupling ring Solder here. Insulator Connection of AIS viewer (FAISPC-MX) The AIS viewer may be connected to the FA-30 directly, or to both FA-30 and NavNet vx2.
2. WEB SOFTWARE SETUP, DATA DISPLAYS 2.1 AIS Receiver FA-30 The FA-30 has no power switch. Power is fed from the ship’s switchboard, and a power switch on the switchboard turns the FA-30 on or off.

3. MAINTENANCE, TROUBLESHOOTING WARNING NOTICE Do not open the equipment unless totally familiar with electrical circuits and service manual. Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray to coating or plastic parts of the equipment. Those items contain organic solvents that can damage coating and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors. Only qualified personnel should work inside the equipment. 3.1 Maintenance Regular maintenance helps maintain good performance.
3.2 Replacing the Fuse The fuse (2A) inside the FA-30 protects it from overcurrent and equipment fault. If the unit cannot be powered, that is, the PWR (power) LED is off, the fuse may have blown. If this happens, turn off the power to the FA-30, open the cover and check the fuse. If the fuse has blown, find out the reason before replacing it. If it blows again after replacement, contact a FURUNO agent or dealer for advice. Part Type Fuse (2A) Code No.
