Preface
This handbook describes the following Raymarine Pathfinder radar scanners:
5S 48" 4 kW Open Array Scanner
7S 72" 4 kW Open Array Scanner
9S 48" 10 kW Open Array Scanner
11S 72" 10 kW Open Array Scanner
These scanner units may be connected to any HSB/hsb
2
or C-Series display unit.
The open array scanners must not be used with the SL70, SL70
PLUS, SL70RC PLUS or Autohelm 7" LCD Display Unit. This may
result in damage to the display due to the high power
requirements of the open array scanner.
The handbook contains very important information on the installation and
operation of your new equipment. In order to obtain the best results in operation
and performance, please read this handbook thoroughly.
Raymarine’s Technical Support representatives or your local dealer will be
available to answer any questions you may have.
Display Software Version
For full operation of the Pathfinder scanners, the display unit requires an
appropriate software version. For new displays, the correct software version is
normally already installed in the display unit and is fully compatible with the
Pathfinder scanners.
Early display units may not have the correct software and will therefore require
upgrading.
The software version can be confirmed by switching-on the display and checking
the version number during the magnetron warm-up sequence.
Note: If a scanner unit is not connected the version number is only displayed for 10 sec-
onds.
Where, necessary Software Upgrade Kits are available from your dealer,
distributor or from Raymarine. We recommend that where a repeater display is
fitted, both the repeater and the master display are upgraded.
