  • Page 7: Mounting

    MOUNTING NOTICE Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray to coating or plastic parts of the equipment. Those items contain organic solvents that can damage coating and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors. Antenna Unit 1.1.1 Mounting considerations • The antenna unit is generally installed either on top of the wheelhouse or on the ra- dar mast, on a suitable platform.
  • Page 8 1. MOUNTING 1.1.2 How to assemble the antenna unit The antenna unit consists of the antenna radiator and the antenna unit chassis, and they are packed separately. Fasten the antenna radiator to the antenna unit chassis as below: 1. Attach two guide pins to the underside of the antenna radiator. 2.
  • Page 9 1. MOUNTING 1.1.3 How to fasten the antenna unit to the mounting platform The antenna unit may be assembled before hoisting it to the mounting platform. How- ever, do not lift the antenna unit by the radiator. Always hold the unit by its housing. When using a crane or hoist, use the hoist rings which should be fastened to the bolt fixing covers of the antenna housing.
  • Page 10 1. MOUNTING 5. Fasten the antenna unit to the mounting platform with M12x60 hex. bolts, nuts, flat washers and seal washers. 6. Use hex. bolt (M6x25), nut (M6) and flat washers (M6) to establish the ground sys- tem on the mounting platform as shown below. The location should be within 340 mm of the ground terminal on the antenna unit.
  • Page 11: Processor Unit

    1. MOUNTING Processor Unit 1.2.1 Mounting consideration The processor unit can be mounted on a desktop or bulkhead. When selecting a mounting location, be careful about the following points: • Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources because of heat that can build up inside the cabinet.
  • Page 12 1. MOUNTING Bulkhead installation Note: The cable entry side should be downward when the processor unit is mounted on the bulkhead. 1. Mark location for four self-tapping screws if screws will be used. 2. Insert four bolts (M5, supplied) or self-tapping screws (5x20), leaving approx. 5 mm of the bolts (screws) exposed.
  • Page 13: Control Unit

    • For monitors other than the MU-190V, brightness cannot be adjusted from the menu or the control unit. Adjust brightness at the monitor itself. • The output video signal from the FR-1908V-BB/FR-1918V-BB cannot be flipped up- side-down. For this reason, when installing a landscape monitor select a location that allows the monitor to be installed after rotating the monitor 90 degrees clock- wise.
