Mounting considerations
Select a mounting location, keeping in mind the following points:
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources.
• Locate the unit away from places subject to water splash and rain.
• Select a mounting location considering the length of the cables to be connected to
the unit.
• Select a location where shock and vibration are minimal.
Reinforce the transceiver unit against vibration by stays extending from the eye-
bolts on the top of the unit, as needed.
• Be sure the mounting location is strong enough to support the weight of the unit.
• Referring to the outline drawings at the back of this manual, allow sufficient space
for maintenance and service.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the unit is placed too close to the magnetic
compass. Observe the compass safe distances at the front of this manual to prevent
interference to a magnetic compass.
• For installation on a deck, use the bolt holes on the top and bottom of the unit.
If the three bolt holes on the top of the unit are not used, or mounting direction is not
followed as shown in the following figure, the quality and performance may be re-
duced.
