1.2 OPTIONS - Part Number RR150003CP Item Overhead mounting bracket Figure 1.
2. GETTING STARTED 2.0 INSTALLING THE CHART PLOTTER The CP1150C can be bracket mounted or flush mounted. If you decide to overhead bracket mount the CP150C, STANDARD HORIZON offers a overhead mounting bracket part number RR150003CP that will be needed for this installation. For Flush mounting, please use the template and hardware supplied. Figure 2.0 - Installing/removing chart plotter Figure 2.
2.1 INSTALLING THE ANTENNA Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky. Ensure there are no major obstructions or fixtures in the immediate proximity to the antenna. The antenna relies on direct “line of sight” satellite reception. If you are unsure that the chosen location is suitable it may be advisable to mount the antenna in a temporary manner to verify correct operation.
