Prepare the Belowdecks Units
4
If you plan to mount the control unit and modem
together as an assembly, without using the
optional case or an equipment rack, follow these
steps to attach the strain-relief bracket and "L"
mounting brackets.
a. Remove the four #6-32 screws and washers
securing the two retaining straps to the rear
panel of the control unit. Do not remove the
bottom screws securing the straps to the modem.
b. Attach the strain-relief bracket to the
retaining straps and control unit using the
screws and washers you removed in Step a
(see Figure 10).
c. Attach two of the supplied "L" mounting
brackets to the sides of the control unit or
modem using four #6-32 screws and washers
(see Figure 11). You can attach the brackets to
either the top of the control unit or the bottom
of the modem, depending on your desired
mounting location.
d. Once you have completed all system wiring,
mount the modem/control unit assembly to
the vessel using fasteners appropriate for the
mounting surface.
