Chapter 3: Fault Finding & Maintenance 29
EMC advice
• When powered up, all electrical equipment produces electromagnetic fields.
These can cause adjacent pieces of electrical equipment to interact with one
another, with a consequent adverse effect on operation.
• To minimize these effects and enable you to get the best possible perfor-
mance from your Raymarine equipment, guidelines are given in the installa-
tion instructions, to enable you to ensure minimum interaction between
different items of equipment, i.e. ensure optimum Electromagnetic Compati-
bility (EMC).
• Always report any EMC-related problems to your nearest Raymarine dealer.
We use such information to improve our quality standards.
• In some installations, it may not be possible to prevent the equipment from
being affected by external influences. In general this will not damage the
equipment but it can lead to spurious resetting action, or momentarily may
result in faulty operation.
