Where can the SeaTalk

2

Keyboard be mounted?

The Seatalk

2

keyboard can be flush or trunnion mounted either indoors or outdoors. It is

waterproof to CFR-46 standard.

Important:
The drain tube is not required if the keyboard is mounted indoors or in an area protected
from rain and/or sea spray. If mounting the keyboard outdoors or in an unprotected area
the drain tube will need to run to a suitable exit point below the level of the keyboard.

What configuration should I use?

How you connect the keyboard depends on the distances between your E-Series Display, the
keyboard and power source and whether or not you are connecting the keyboard to an
existing SeaTalk

2

system. Select the appropriate configuration from the following:
