Mounting Considerations
SMD12
When selecting a mounting location for Multi-Function Display, keep the following in
mind:
• The temperature at the mounting location shall be between -15°C and +55°C.
• The humidity at the mounting location shall be 93% or less at 40°C.
• Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and ventilators.
• The mounting location should be well ventilated.
• Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal (compliant with IEC 60945
Ed.4).
• Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field generating equipment such as
motors and generators.
• For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space around the unit and
leave slack in cables. Minimum recommended space is shown in the outline
drawing for the display units.
• Do not mount the Multi-Function Display on the overhead.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if the equipment is placed too close to it.
Observe the compass safe distances shown in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS to
prevent disturbance to the magnetic compass.
• Mount the unit in a location where the internal GPS antenna can transmit and
receive GPS data without obstruction. Where this is not possible, connect the
Multi-Function Display to an external GPS antenna, such as the GP-330B, via a
NMEA2000 network.
The Multi-Function Display can be flush mounted in a console or panel, or mounted
on a desktop.
When removing the equipment
If the equipment is removed from the vessel, cover the connector of the cable with the
supplied cap to keep dust out of the connector.
