Processor Unit (FSV-2503/FSV-2503S)

1.2.1 Installation considerations
When selecting a mounting location, keep the following points in mind:
• Mount the unit upright (connectors facing downwards), or horizontal.
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources because of heat
that can build up inside the unit.
The maximum normal operating temperature for this equipment is +45°C.
• Install the unit away from areas subject to water splash or rain.
• Be sure the mounting location is strong enough to support the weight of the unit
under the continued vibration which is normally experienced on the ship.
If necessary reinforce the mounting location.
• Determine the mounting location considering the length of these cables:
• Signal cable from the transceiver unit.
• control cable from the control unit.
• Leave sufficient space on the sides of the unit to facilitate maintenance. Also, leave
a foot or so of "service loop" in cables for servicing or easy removal of connectors.
See the outline drawing at the back of this manual for recommended maintenance
space.
• Follow the compass safe distances in the "SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS" on page i to
prevent interference to a magnetic compass.
