Installing the Ferrite Bead Clamp
In order to filter Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) radiation
that could possibly interfere with items such as televisions, radios,
or other marine electronics operating in close proximity to the
GPSMAP 192C with the remote antenna, a ferrite bead filter clamp
and neoprene foam strip are included for attachment to the unit’s
antenna cable. The clamp attaches to the antenna cable near the
point it connects to the back of the GPSMAP 192C. The foam strip
has adhesive on one side and is used to keep the clamp stationary
on the cable.
To install the ferrite bead clamp:
1. Choose a location where there is no more than two inches
(5 cm) from the back of the GPSMAP 192C.
2. Remove the backing from the adhesive foam strip. Place
the strip at an angle to the cable with adhesive facing
towards the cable. Snugly spiral wrap the foam strip around
the antenna cable. (Figure 1)
3. Open the filter clamp by slightly pulling on the latch and
opening the filter halves.
4. Position the clamp (Figure 2) and squeeze it shut around
the cable until the latch is securely fastened. If the clamp is
difficult to close, you can want to remove some of the foam
strip.
The clamp should not need to be replaced under normal use. Please
contact your Garmin dealer or Garmin Support if you have any
questions or require a replacement filter clamp.
