Chapter 1: Important information Caution: Power supply protection Safety notices When installing this product ensure the power source is adequately protected by means of a suitably-rated fuse or automatic circuit breaker. Warning: Switch off power supply Ensure the vessel’s power supply is switched OFF before starting to install this product. Do NOT connect or disconnect equipment with the power switched on, unless instructed in this document.
In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft (2 m). – 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 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.
