Installation Planning

Bulkhead Box Planning

• Mount the bulkhead box in an area that is sheltered from the weather, has

good airflow, is not exposed to direct sunlight, and is within easy reach of all

required cables.

• 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.

JCU Planning

• Mount the JCU in a convenient area close to the device that will be displaying

the Voyager III system video.

• Ensure the area you choose has enough room for the JCU body, connector,

and cable.

• If you are relying on a magnetic compass for navigation and direction, you

need to consider the "compass safe distance" when mounting the JCU. The

magnetic compass safe distance for the JCU is 21.7 inches (55 cm).

• Optionally more than one JCU can be used to control the camera. If you are

planning to use more than one JCU, you should consider the multiple locations

in your planning.

Caution: The Voyager III main sensor cable must maintain a secured minimum

bend radius of 5 inches where the cable is connected to the camera body. The

cable must be clamped at regular intervals to avoid excess motion, chafing, and

to provide strain relief to terminations when the boat is in motion.

• Route all cables and verify they are long enough given the proposed mounting

locations and cable routing requirements before you install any other

components.

• Verify that both sides of the mounting surface are accessible.

• Verify compliance with minimum keep-out volume, which is represented by a

cylinder 22 x 15.5 inches in diameter (see the camera diagram in the ICD).

• Verify compliance with minimum cable routing clearance as shown in the

bulkhead box diagram included in the ICD.

• Determine if any interior trim panels must be removed in order to gain access

to the mounting hardware, and if so, remove them ahead of time.
