1.13.3 Connecting cables

Run the cables by following these instructions:
• Do not bind the cable for the radar collectively with cables of other equip-
ment (especially the power supply cable).
• Run the cable along the ship's hull or wall surface, and fasten it at intervals
of about 40 cm.
• After fitting the interconnecting cable (see further ahead in this section):
The scanner cable has a connector fitted on the display side. Push the connec-
tor as far as it will go into the receptacle marked 'RADAR' on the rear of the
display cabinet and turn the connector's coupling ring clockwise until it is
tight.
The bolts included with your radar
equipment will suffice for mount
base thickness of 9 to 14 mm (0.35 to
0.55 in.). If the mount base is thicker
or thinner than this, prepare bolts as
listed on page 1-31.
