Connect power
Before connecting power to the system:
• make sure the scanner has been installed and is secured
• make sure the scanner cable is connected to the scanner
• if using the Radar Interface Box make sure all connections have been made to the display
The radar system can operate on voltages of 9-32 V DC. The system requires a (+ V DC) to be
applied to the yellow remote power on wire in order to operate. This can be achieved by one of
three ways.
• Common the red and yellow wires together. Radar will power on when power is applied
• Install a switch that will provide power to the yellow wire. Radar will turn on when switch
is activated
• Connect to the yellow wire to a the external wake up of a suitable display. Radar will turn
on when display is turned on
For systems using a radar interface box
• Connect the red wire to power positive 9-32 V DC. Use a 5 amp fuse or breaker
• Connect the yellow wire to power source that will turn on the system (see above)
• Connect black to power negative
It is recommended where possible to connect the radar interface box to ships ground
