3.8 Control Unit Installation
The control unit is fully waterproof and can therefore be
installed on deck or below. The connections should be
protected from water penetration and should, if possible,
allow rear access to remove the desiccant pack annually.
The position selected should in the first instance meet the
requirements of the helmsman or crew. The control unit
should be at least 150 mm (6") away from a magnetic
compass.
Note ! Pay particular attention to the viewing angle when
installing the control unit in a dashboard or overhead. A
viewing angle of min. 30° is recommended. When
reading the display from the opposite position (12
o’clock) the viewing angle can be reduced to 20°.
The selected surface must be flat and even to within 0.5
mm.
0.5 mm max.
30°
