WHEN RADIO STATION/GPS MOUNTED ON THE BOAT
The ECM and its wires are designed so that they are not affected by the external jamming, but the ECM can function
erroneously when it receives the extremely strong electric wave. Check the ECM for erroneous operation whenever a
radio station or a navigation system is mounted on the boat. Observe the following instructions to prevent erroneous
operation.
• Set the antenna and the radio station at least 50 cm (1.6 ft) or more away from the ECM, Remote control cable,
remote control box, NMEA Interface cable or network cable.
• Avoid routing the antenna wire lead too long compared to the remote control cable, NMEA Interface cable or
network cable.
• Do not install the radio station that does not conform with the laws and regulations concerned (10W or below).
• Set the GPS antenna and navigation unit at least 3 m (4.8 ft) or more away from the ECM.
• Ground the GPS antenna ground securely.
After installing a radio station or GPS, the ECM must be inspected for erroneous operation.
