Chapter 5: Installation

Siting

The control head is completely waterproof and should be sited where it

is:

• Within easy reach of the steering position

• Protected from physical damage

• At least 230 mm (9 in) from any compass

• At least 500 mm (20 in) from any radio/radar receiving/transmitting

equipment

Note: The back cover is designed to breath through the cable boss to

prevent moisture accumulation. This must be protected from the

weather by following the mounting procedure.

Mounting procedure

Control heads are available in surface mount and flush mount styles.

Use the appropriate procedure to mount your instrument, but in each

case, ensure that:

• The selected location is clean, smooth and flat.

• There is sufficient space behind the selected location to

accommodate the rear of the control head and connectors.

Note: Adjacent control heads, or instruments, must have a 6 mm

(1/4 in) gap between them to allow sun covers to be fitted.

Surface mounting

To fit a surface mount control head:

1. Apply the surface mount template (supplied near the rear of this

handbook) to the selected bulkhead.

2. Mark the centres of the two fixing holes and the cable boss.

3. Drill two 4 mm (5/32 in) diameter holes for the fixing studs.

4. Use a 90 mm (3.5 in) diameter cutter to drill the hole for the cable

boss (1).

5. Peel off the protective sheet from the self-adhesive gasket (4) then

stick the gasket into position on the rear of the control head bezel.

6. Screw the fixing studs (2) into the display head.

7. Pass the cables (SeaTalk, power, compass etc.) through the

bulkhead and connect them to the appropriate terminals (see

relevant subsection for connection details).
