Instruction manual
Simrad EK60
56
850-164696 / A
Connect the ITI to a free RS232 port. Only the receive signal
wire (Rx, pin 2), the transmit signal wire (Tx, pin 3) and the
ground wire (pin 5) need to be connected.
Maximum cable length is approximately 10 meters.
Heave sensor
A heave sensor with an analogue output is connected directly to
the Auxiliary connector.
The positive heave input signal (pin 3) is connected to the
sensor output terminal. The negative heave input signal (pin 16)
is grounded at the sensor in order to prevent ground potential
offsets between the sensor and the transceiver from adding to
the sensed signal.
Maximum cable length is virtually unlimited.
Motion sensors with a serial line output may also be connected
to a free RS-232 port at the rear of the computer. Maximum
cable length is approximately 10 meters.
Motion sensor with an ethernet output are connected to the
ship’s network, and will be accessed by the EK60 when set up
to do so.
Purse seine
Communication with the Simrad PI30 (Purse Seine system) is
basedonNMEAtelegrams.
Connect the PI30 to a free RS232 port at the rear of the
computer. Only the receive signal wire (Rx, pin 2), the transmit
signal wire (Tx, pin 3) and the ground wire (pin 5) need to be
connected.
Maximum cable length is approximately 10 meters.
Colour printer
Connect the printer to the parallel port, use a standard printer
cable with all wires connected. Maximum cable length for
parallel cable is approximately 10 meters.
