• The equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine
start. Voltage drops below 10 V (20 V for 10 kW open array scanners) in the
power supply to our products, and starter motor transients, can cause the
equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the
loss of some information and may change the operating mode.
• Raymarine specified cables are used at all times. Cutting and rejoining these
cables can compromise EMC performance and so must be avoided unless
doing so is detailed in the installation manual.
• If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be
removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be reas-
sembled in the same position.
Section 2.1, Radome scanner includes instruc-
tions on fitting a ferrite.
The following illustration shows a typical range of suppression ferrites fitted to
Raymarine equipment.
Connections to Other Equipment
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable
not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be fitted to the
cable close to the Raymarine unit.
1.2 Unpacking and inspecting the components
Unpack your system carefully, to prevent damage to the equipment. It is good
practice to save the carton and packing for future use, in case you need to return
the unit for service. Check that you have all the correct system components. These
depend on your system package, as detailed in the following tables.
