Wiring considerations
• Turn the power at the switchboard off before beginning the wiring.
• The 5 A fuse in the fuse holder (supplied with the cable assembly) must be replaced
with the supplied 10 A fuse when installing with 15 m, 20 m and 30 m cables. When
installing with 10 m cables, the fuse to be used will be different according to the volt-
age of ship's main. Use the 15 A fuse for 12 VDC ship's main. Use the 10 A fuse for
24 VDC ship's main. Also, attach the supplied fuse rating label to the fuse holder.
For details, see "How to Replace the Fuse" (C32-01604).
• The cable assembly and power/LAN cables have connector(s). Do NOT cut the ca-
ble assembly and power/LAN cables even if the cables are run through a radar
mast.
• When you replace the DRS4A/6A/12A/25A with the DRS6A-NXT, the existing cable
cannot be used. Use only the cable assembly supplied with this radar sensor.
1. Unfasten two screws, circled in the following figure, to remove the cable cover.
2. Connect the cable assembly (supplied) to the power/LAN cable that is pre-at-
tached to the antenna unit.
