“MAN OVER BOARD” SAFETY FUNCTION Each transmitter integrates a “man over board” safety function. When a person carrying a transmitter falls over board and the ship sails further than 50 metres away, the “man over board” alarm is triggered. The following functions are activated: −...
− TOPLINE terminal box : 90-60-121 or 90-60-417 (with NMEA input). − TOPLINE bus cable 20-61-001. 3.3 Specific precautions for the installation of the radio system On the ship, the nke radio system comprises : − One receiver equipped with a small antenna. − One outside antenna.

judiciously. Figure 2 below describes the radio spectrum of the offset antenna. We observe that wave reception is at its maximum perpendicular to the antenna, and lower towards the extremities. Position the outside antenna so that the spectrum covers the deck of your ship as much as possible.

Antenna 30cm Receiver radio Figure 3 3.4 Specific precautions for boats made with metal and carbon Boats made with metal (steel, aluminium, etc.) and carbon, are sometimes impervious to radio waves. Thus we recommend that you install the offset antenna outside the hull of the boat. The radio receiver must be installed inside.
3.5 Position and installation of the radio receiver housing The receiver housing is non waterproof, and must therefore be placed inside the boat, in a dry and protected place. The receiver is delivered with a mounting bracket. Attach the bracket on the bulkhead with 2 screws of 5 mm diameter (screws not included).

RECEIVER INITIALIZATION AND PAIRING OF THE TRANSMITTERS For the initialization of the radio receiver and transmitter(s) (Gyropilot, Multifunction and crew) at first power-up, you must pair up the transmitter(s) with the radio receiver. It will take an address on the bus at this time. The radio receiver is delivered with the address set as 0.
5.2 About the pairing Important : − All Gyropilot, Multifunction and Crew MOB devices used with an individual radio Receiver must be paired at the same time. The pairing of any single device subsequent to the initial pairings will delete older pairings and they must all be redone. −...
5.5 Pairing of a Multifunction transmitter with the receiver 1- Hold down the ENT key for three beeps, release the ENTER key 2- Press and release the ENT key once 3- Hold down the ENT key for approximately three beeps, you will hear a long beep if the pairing is successful.
DIAGNOSTIC FOR 1 LEVEL TROUBLESHOOTING. This chapter can help you rapidly resolve minor problems which do not require the intervention of a specialist. Before contacting technical support, please check the troubleshooting table below. Problem Possible causes and solutions The bus cable is not or is badly connected to the terminal box : check the The Topline bus does not detect the radio receiver.
