fasteners as shown in Figure 1. Do not use threadlocking compounds containing methacrylate
ester, such as Loctite Red (271), as they will cause stress cracking of the plastic enclosure.
The usual way of mounting the SSC300 to a horizontal surface is to mount it to the top of the
horizontal surface; however, the SSC300 may be mounted upside down to the underside of a
horizontal surface, provided that the SSC300 is programmed to recognize that it is mounted
upside down. This can be done using a Maretron DSM150 display, DSM250 display, or
Maretron N2KAnalyzer software (please refer to the appropriate user's manual for details), or
through a command sent to the SSC300 via the NMEA 0183 interface (please refer to
Appendix A for details).
