1.1 Siting

The ST30 Bidata instrument may be installed above or below deck where
it is:

• easily read by the helmsman (normally viewed at eye level)

• protected from physical damage

• at least 230mm (9in) from a compass

• at least 500mm (20in) from radio receiving equipment

• accessible from behind for ease of installation and cable running

Notes: To prevent the build-up of moisture, the instrument breathes
through the back cover. The instrument must, therefore, be mounted
where the back cover is protected from direct water.

The rear case is fitted with a foam gasket to form a water-tight seal
between the instrument and the installation face.
