FOREWORD Congratulations on your choice of the PG-700 Integrated Heading Sensor. We are confident you will see why the FURUNO name has become synonymous with quality and reliability. Since 1948, FURUNO Electric Company has enjoyed an enviable reputation for innovative and dependable marine electronics equipment.
SYSTEM CONFIGURATION The solid line below shows the basic system configuration. SENSOR PG-700 FURUNO CAN bus Device* JUNCTION BOX FI-5002 12 VDC** *: NavNet 3D, FI series instrument, etc. **: Not necessary if FURUNO CAN bus network supplies power.
HOW TO INSTALL THE EQUIPMENT Installation Considerations Mount the unit with the lamps and keys face up on a horizontal surface. The unit can be mounted on a desktop or bulkhead. Overhead mounting is not allowed. When selecting a mounting location, observe the following to ensure optimal performance: •...

Battery 12 VDC If you connect PG-700 directly to the instrument, or to a network, each device must be tem- porarily connected to each other, and a power supply 12 VDC (see page 6). 2. Place the unit at the intended mounting position and supply power. Verify that the STATUS lamp is not lit red.
Page 11
1. HOW TO INSTALL THE EQUIPMENT 4. Slowly turn the unit (one turn per minute) at the mounting position (turn one - two times to achieve the results as shown in the left figure below). If successful, the STATUS and CHECK lamps light green. If fails, the STATUS lamp lights red. CALIB STATUS CHECK...

1. HOW TO INSTALL THE EQUIPMENT Bulkhead mounting The unit can be mounted to the bulkhead either parallel or vertical to the bow. 1. Remove two screws at the bottom to detach the mounting base. 2. Remount the base upside down using the two screws which were unscrewed in the above step.
1. HOW TO INSTALL THE EQUIPMENT Wiring Connect a termination resistor at both ends of the backbone of CAN bus devices. PG-700 incor- porates a termination resistor. Turn the switch on/off as applicable. If using the optional Junction Box FI-5002 Connect the unit and the FI-5002 using cable M12-05BM+05BF-060 (supplied as installation ma- terials).

Before operating: • This unit contains magnetic components. Keep away from metals (when the ship inclines, be sure no metal objects roll towards the PG-700). • When navigating in the vicinity of large structures (bridges, etc.), an bearing error may occur.
The unit has no power switch. Supply the +12 VDC power via the optional junction box FI-5002 or FURUNO CAN bus device. When power is received by the sensor, the unit will automatically check ROM and RAM status. After this, the lamps light as shown below:...
