Preface

This handbook describes the following Raymarine Pathfinder radar scanners:
2D 18" 2 kW Radome Scanner
4D 24" 4 kW Radome Scanner
5S 48" 4 kW Open Array Scanner
7S 72" 4 kW Open Array Scanner
9S 48" 10 kW Open Array Scanner
11S 72" 10 kW Open Array Scanner
These scanner units may be connected to any HSB/hsb
In addition, the 2D radome scanner unit may be connected to an SL70, SL70 PLUS
or SL70RC PLUS 7" LCD display.
WARNING:
The 4D radome scanner connected to an SL70, SL70PLUS or SL70RC
PLUS 7" LCD display unit DOES NOT conform to the EU Directive
95/5/EC, therefore such a system cannot be installed on a vessel
within the EU.
A 4D radome scanner connected to any other Pathfinder display
unit including, SL70M PLUS, SL70MRC PLUS, SL70C PLUS and
SL70CRC PLUS conforms in full and is not affected.
CAUTION:
The open array scanners must not be used with the SL70, SL70
PLUS, SL70RC PLUS or Autohelm 7" LCD Display Unit. This may
result in damage to the display due to the high power
requirements of the open array scanner.
The handbook contains very important information on the installation and
operation of your new equipment. In order to obtain the best results in operation
and performance, please read this handbook thoroughly.
Raymarine's Technical Support representatives or your local dealer will be
available to answer any questions you may have.

Display Software Version

For full operation of the Pathfinder scanners, the display unit requires an
appropriate software version. For new displays, the correct software version is
normally already installed in the display unit and is fully compatible with the
Pathfinder scanners.
Early display units may not have the correct software and will therefore require
upgrading.
