Chapter 2: Installing the Scanner
2.1 Radome scanner
Securing the radome scanner to the mounting sur-
face
CAUTION:
The drain tube must always be used, but may be shortened if
necessary
1. Using the paper template supplied with the scanner mounting kit, mark the
flat mounting surface with the mounting holes and drain tube hole, and drill
the holes as indicated on the template.
If it is impractical to drill a hole for the drain tube, then the scanner unit should
be mounted on 4 suitable spacers 10 mm high and the drain tube length
reduced by 10 mm. It will then be clear of the flat surface and can still perform
its function.
Notes: (1)
If you are using a Raymarine mast mount bracket, the surface is pre-pre-
pared.
(2)
If you are mounting the scanner on a flat surface, you may find it easier to
fit the drain tube, as described in the following section, before securing the
scanner.
2. Position the scanner on the mounting surface, ensuring that the cable inlet is
pointing aft.
3. Locate the bolts and washers supplied with the scanner and grease the bolts.
Fix the bitumen washers to the mounting surface then secure the scanner to
the mounting surface as shown in the following diagram. Tighten the bolts to
20 Nm (14.7 lb ft.); ensure the scanner is tightly fitted.
