3.1 Select the location
Suitable locations
The course computer is designed to be mounted on a vertical and flat
bulkhead below decks. Select a location that is:
• dry, protected and well-ventilated
• free from high operating temperatures
• free from excessive vibration
• non-metallic
• accessible for cable routing and sufficiently large to secure the
cable clamp under the computer
On sailboats, we also recommend mounting the course computer
across the boat on a transverse bulkhead.
Notes:
1. If the only possible location has a metallic surface, you must
insulate the base of course computer so it is not earthed.
2. When selecting the mounting location, also refer to the EMC
installation guidelines (on page 7).
