Power supply connections
SeaTalk systems
CAUTION:
When instruments are connected to SeaTalk, ensure that the
power supply for the SeaTalk 12 V line is protected by a 5 A fuse.
Systems with a large number of instruments on the SeaTalk bus may require
connections to the power supply from each end of the system (‘ring-main’ style),
to maintain sufficient voltage throughout the system.
This requirement depends on the total length of the cable run and the total
number of instruments in the system, as follows:
Stand alone instruments
Stand-alone instruments are not connected to SeaTalk and therefore need to be
connected to an alternative 12 V power source. Power cables are available in 2 m
and 9 m lengths.
