This will help to keep cable runs to a minimum. 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.
This location provides optimal performance (above decks). In this location, performance may be less effective. This location is NOT recommended. Vessel construction The construction of your vessel can have an impact on performance. For example, the proximity of heavy structures such as a structural bulkhead, or the interior of larger vessels may result in a reduced signal.
• Installing a remote keypad such as the RMK-10 and operating the display remotely — Touch -only displays. • Locking the Touchscreen and using the physical buttons instead — HybridTouch displays. • Attaching a third-party ‘display hood accessory’ to reduce direct sunlight exposure and the volume of water that the display is exposed to.

Note: The illustration depicts an Axiom™ 7 being mounted on a plastic trunnion bracket. The trunnion bracket supplied with the Axiom™ 9 and Axiom™ 12 are made from metal and so look different than the trunnion shown. A metal trunnion bracket is also available for the Axiom™ 7 as an accessory;...
3.4 Axiom 7 flush and surface mounting Removing the trunnion adaptor Axiom™ 7 The trunnion adaptor supplied fitted to the Axiom™ 7 can be removed to enable the adaptor to be used as a clamp for surface and flush mount installations, the adaptor must also be removed before installation the unit using the Rear mount brackets or Front Installation kit.

1. Using the Surface/Flush mounting template as a guide, cut the relevant cut out hole in the mounting surface, if you are Flush mounting the MFD, also follow the rebate information on the mounting template. 2. Screw the 4 x studs into the rear of the MFD. 3.
3.5 Surface or flush mounting using the Rear Mount Kit When suitable access is available behind the desired mounting surface then the MFD can be surface or flush mounted using the Rear Mount Kit. For Axiom™ 7 MFD, supplied with the trunnion adaptor fitted, first remove the Trunnion adaptor from the rear of the MFD.
Page 36
6. Secure the MFD in position by hand-tightening the thumb nuts onto the studs. Important: To prevent potential damage to the unit, do NOT overtighten the thumb nuts. Hand tighten only. 7. If required insert your MicroSD card into the MFD card reader located behind the rubber bung on the rear of the MFD.

RV Transducer connection — Connects to RealVision™ 3D transducers. Connecting cables Follow the steps below to connect the cable(s) to your product. 1.
• The suitable fuse rating for the thermal breaker is dependent on the number of devices you are connecting. If in doubt consult an authorized Raymarine dealer. • Your product’s power cable may have an in-line fuse fitted, if not then you must add an in-line fuse / breaker to the positive wire of your product’s power connection.
Page 41
• Ideally, all equipment should be wired to individual suitably-rated thermal breakers or fuses, with appropriate circuit protection. Where this is not possible and more than 1 item of equipment shares a breaker, use individual in-line fuses for each power circuit to provide the necessary protection. Positive (+) bar Negative (-) bar Circuit breaker...
Page 42
Waterproof fuse holder containing a suitably-rated inline fuse must be fitted. In-line fuse and thermal breaker ratings For suitable fuse rating, refer to: Product power cable. Drain wire connection point. Battery connection scenario A: Suitable for a vessel with a common RF ground point. In this scenario, if your product’s power cable is supplied with a separate drain wire then it should be connected to the vessel’s common ground point.
Page 43
Important: To ensure power cables (including any extension) are of a sufficient gauge, ensure that there is a continuous minimum voltage of 10.8 V dc at the end of the cable where it enters the product’s power connector, even with a fully flat battery at 11 V dc. (Do not assume that a flat battery is at 0 V dc.
Grounding — optional dedicated drain wire Frequencies emitted from equipment such as switch mode power supplies or MF/HF transmitters etc. can cause interference with your MFD’s touchscreen. If you experience issues with touchscreen performance, fitting an additional dedicated drain wire can resolve the issue. Note: The additional wire supplements the drain wire (shield) that is part of the product’s power cable and should ONLY be used when touchscreen interference is observed.
4.3 NMEA 2000 (SeaTalkng ®) connection The MFD can transmit and receive data from devices connected on a compliant CAN bus network that the MFD is also connected to. The MFD is connected to the backbone using the DeviceNet connector on the Power/NMEA 2000 cable. Power/NMEA 2000 cable connects to the rear of the MFD.
Note: Refer to 2.3 Compatible transducers for Axiom™ MFDs for more information on compatible transducers for your MFD variant. 2. Transducer extension cables are available. 3. MFDs that do not have a built-in sonar module can be connected to a transducer via an external CPxxx series sonar module.
4.6 Accessory connection The RCR-SDUSB or RCR-2 (available separately) can be connected to your MFD using the Accessory connection. RCR connection The following functions require a card reader attached to the MFD: • use of electronic cartography — alternatively cartography can be shared from a networked MFD that does have a card reader attached.
