    Warnings and Cautions • Voyager III Quick Start Guide (FLIR Doc. # 432-0005-00-11) is a set of double-sided cards that show the functions executed by the various JCU buttons, puck movements, and on-screen symbols. • Voyager III Interface Control Documents (ICD) is a set of CAD drawings with detailed component dimensions, wiring schemes, and mounting dimensions.
  • Page 7: Installation Overview

    Installation Overview Caution: Do not open the Voyager III camera unit for any reason. Disassembly of the camera (including removal of the cover) can cause permanent damage and will void the warranty. Caution: Be careful not to leave fingerprints on the Voyager III camera optics.

    • Ensure the box has access to power. The Voyager III system power cable connecting the bulkhead box to ship’s power is 10 feet long.
  • Page 10: Physical Installation

    Using a 6.0 mm hex driver, install the red handle and secure with the two socket head screws supplied. Caution: Ensure the red handle is removed from the Voyager III camera body before making cable connections or applying power. Damage to the Voyager III camera body may result if the handle is not removed.

  • Page 13: Electrical Connections

    Electrical Connections The following sections describe the connections to the Voyager III system. Refer to the NMEA 0183 Standard for details on interconnecting the Voyager III with other marine electronic devices. Caution: During installation, ensure the main sensor cable exiting the Voyager III camera body maintains a minimum bend radius of five inches, is not in contact with sharp edges, and is not pinched between any mounting surface.

    Ship Power, Ship Video, Ethernet, and NMEA Prepare the ship power input cable (4104680)—Carefully measure, Step 1. cut, and strip each wire as described in the Voyager III bulkhead box description in the ICD. When this is done, terminate to terminal block J1.
  • Page 22: Nmea Interface

    Voyager III), you will need to supply the following: • 3-wire cable from the NMEA device to the Voyager III bulkhead box • NMEA multiplexer if the input to the Voyager III system does not come from a multi-function display that acts as a multiplexer Note: The Voyager III does not support the NMEA 0183-HS (High Speed) protocol.
  • Page 23: Control Station Installation

    When a multi-function display (MFD) is used as the NMEA talker, it functions as a multiplexer, and incoming messages from the radar and other NMEA talker devices are passed through the MFD to the Voyager III. Most MFDs let you select the required messages and output them using an available NMEA 0183 port.
  • Page 24 Single JCU, Switch/Router with POE If you have an Ethernet switch or router on-board that does not supply PoE, then you must install a PoE injector (FLIR part number 4121837 or equivalent) between the port on your switch/router and the JCU. For this configuration, you must supply an additional Ethernet cable of the appropriate length.
  • Page 25 Single JCU, Switch/Router without PoE Multiple JCU Installation With the Voyager III system, more than one joystick control unit (JCU) can be used to control a camera. Depending on whether your network switch provides PoE, this configuration is set up in the same way as option 2 or 3 for the single JCU.
  • Page 26: Digital Video Installation

    A computer can be interconnected over a shared Ethernet network to control the Voyager III camera and view digital video. It is connected in the same way as a JCU directly to a switch or router; but in the case of the computer, no PoE injector is needed since it has its own power source.
