INSTALLATION


The display heads are supplied with a clip-in mounting
bracket which allows for easy installation, access from
behind is not necessary to secure the unit in place. However
to prevent theft and permanently fix the unit in position,
locking studs and thumb nuts are supplied.

SITING THE UNIT


All Network Instruments are designed for mounting on or
below deck. A mounting position should be selected where
they are:

• Easy to read by the helmsman

• On a smooth and flat surface

• At least 100mm (4") from a compass

• Accessible from behind for fitting locking studs if

required

MOUNTING THE UNIT


Use the cutting template supplied to mark the centres of the
holes for the self-tapping screw, the fixing stud holes and
the mounting bracket.

• The template allows 4mm (5/32") between adjacent

units for the suncover, increase this distance if
required to maximum of 60mm (2 3/8") between units
or 180mm (3 1/8") between centres. For greater
distances between units extension cables are
available.

• Use a 70mm (2 3/4") diameter hole-cutter for the

mounting bracket hole.

• Use a 2.9mm for the self-tapping screw holes. Use a

5mm (3/32") drill for the locking stud holes.

• Secure the mounting bracket to the bulkhead with the

self-tapping screws supplied

• Fit the rubber-sealing gasket around the mounting

bracket.

• Screw the locking studs into the back of the display

head (if required).

• Carefully pass the cable tails through the mounting

bracket hole, connect the cables to the main units.

• Clip the display head into the mounting bracket.

• Secure the instrument with the thumb nuts supplied.
