The card reader has a waterproof rating of IPx6 / IPx7 (when lid is closed). Note: Most MicroSD cards are supplied with an adaptor; MicroSD cards must be removed from their adaptors before they can be used in the RCR-1’s MicroSD card slot. For more information refer 8.3 Removing MicroSD card from its adaptor Compatible displays The RCR–1 card reader is compatible with the following LightHouse™...
This product is NOT waterproof when the lid is open. 5.4 EMC installation guidelines Raymarine equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, to minimize electromagnetic interference between equipment and minimize the effect such interference could have on the performance of your system Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.
Important: For CNC machining CAD data is available on the Raymarine website. 7. Ensure that the unit fits into the removed area and then remove rough edges. 8. Attach the gasket to the rear of the card reader.
6.2 Surface mounting When surface mounted the product protrudes slightly from the mounting surface, usually by the thickness of the bezel. 1. Check the selected location for the unit. A clear, flat area with suitable clearance behind the panel is required. 2.
• Unless otherwise stated only use cables supplied by Raymarine. • Where it is necessary to use non-Raymarine cables, ensure that they are of correct quality and gauge for their intended purpose. (e.g.: longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize voltage drop along the run).
Suppression ferrites • Raymarine cables may be pre-fitted or supplied with suppression ferrites. These are important for correct EMC performance. If ferrites are supplied separately to the cables (i.e. not pre-fitted), you must fit the supplied ferrites, using the supplied instructions.
Due to the high data bandwidth requirements of electronic charts (especially when sharing with other networked MFDs), Raymarine recommends that an MFD internal card reader is used for cartography whenever possible. If the RCR-1 is used for cartography, you must first fit suppression ferrites; for more information refer to: p.25 — Fitting suppression ferrites...
