EMC Installation Guidelines All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment. Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product. The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical equipment. For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wherever possible: · Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are: · At least 3 ft. (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2 m). · More than 7 ft. (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element. · The equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V, and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may cause the loss of some information and may change the operating mode. · Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and must be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual. · If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite should not be removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed during installation it must be reassembled in the same position. Chapter 1: Preparation for installation 7 Suppression Ferrites The illustration shows typical cable suppression ferrites used with Raymarine equipment. Always use the ferrites supplied by Raymarine. D6626-1 Connections to other equipment If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equipment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near to the Raymarine unit. Locating the display Your E-Series display can either be flush-mounted or mounted using the trunnion bracket supplied. Before you install the display, plan its installation, considering: · Convenience: The contrast and colors seen on all Liquid Crystal Displays (LCD) vary slightly with viewing angle and are best viewed perpendicular to the display. The mounting location should be easily accessible to allow operation of the front panel controls. Avoid installing where excessive reflection will occur in normal use. · Access: There must be sufficient space behind the display to allow cable connections to the rear panel connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cables. · Interference: The selected location should be far enough away from devices that may cause interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitters/receivers (see EMC Guidelines). · Magnetic compass: Mount the display at least 3ft (1m) away from a magnetic compass. · Cable runs: The display should be mounted as near as possible to a Direct Current (DC) power source. All cables should be adequately secured, protected from physical damage and excessive vibration. Avoid running cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects. · Environmental: The display should be protected from physical damage and excessive vibration. Although the display unit is waterproof, it is good practice to mount it in a protected area away from prolonged and direct exposure to rain and salt spray. The rear of the display should be in a well ventilated space to ensure air circulation to the rear of the unit. EMC Conformance Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it is not affected by radio transmissions, engine starting etc. 8 E-Series Installation Manual Chapter 2: System Integration 9 Chapter 2: System Integration Introduction This chapter provides an overview of system integration, you may find that your system does not use all the protocols or contain all the instrumentation that is described in it. However it is hoped that the information supplied will help in your understanding of how systems can be integrated and used successfully. 2.1 What is System Integration? System integration enables various instruments and displays to communicate with each other and use the collected data to increase the functionality of the system. This data exchange is only possible if the data gathering is accurate, and transfer between instruments is fast and accurate. Fast and accurate data transfer is achieved by using a combination of the following data protocols: · SeaTalk. · SeaTalk2. · National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA)0183. · NMEA 2000. · SeaTalk High Speed. When two or more E-Series Displays are networked, all shared data can be viewed on any display. What is SeaTalk? SeaTalk The SeaTalk protocol enables compatible instruments to be connected to a simple network by way of a single cable carrying power (12 volts, 150 mA) and data in/out, without a central processor. Additional instruments and functions can be added to a SeaTalk system, simply by plugging them into the network. SeaTalk equipment can also communicate with other non-SeaTalk equipment via the NMEA 0183 standard, provided a suitable interface is used. SeaTalk2 SeaTalk2 is an enhanced replacement for SeaTalk and is a proprietary extension to NMEA 2000 and the proven CAN bus technology. It enables other Raymarine SeaTalk2 10 E-Series Installation Manual devices to talk to each other, whilst maintaining near transparent NMEA 2000 compatibility. SeaTalk High Speed SeaTalk High Speed is designed to provide a `plug and play', ethernet based marine network. It supports up to 8 nodes e.g. 7 displays and a DSM300, which can be connected to a compatible device, display, DSM etc. to give you access to all radar, fishfinder, chart cartridge and instrument data, waypoints, routes, tracks and navigation information held on the system. What is NMEA? NMEA 0183 The NMEA 0183 Data Interface Standard was developed by the National Marine Electronics Association of America. It is an international standard to enable equipment from many different manufacturers to be connected together and share information. The NMEA 0183 standard carries similar information to SeaTalk. However it has the important difference in that one cable will only carry information in one direction. For this reason NMEA 0183 is generally used to connect a data receiver and a transmitter together, e.g. a compass sensor transmitting heading to a radar display. This information is passed in `sentences', each of which has a three-letter sentence identifier. It is therefore important when checking compatibility between items that the same sentence identifiers are used: · VTG - carries Course and Speed Over Ground data. · GLL - carries latitude and longitude. · DBT - carries water depth. · MWV - carries relative wind angle and wind speed data. NMEA 2000 NMEA 2000 offers significant improvements over NMEA 0183, most notably in speed and connectivity. Up to 50 units can simultaneously transmit and receive on a single physical bus at any one time, with each node being physically addressable. The standard was specifically intended to allow for a whole network of marine electronics from any manufacturer to communicate on a common bus via standardized message types and formats.

CompactFlash cards It is possible to archive or transfer information to and from your E-Series display and other compatible instruments using CompactFlash cards. To achieve the best results it is recommended that SAN DISK® CF memory cards are used. 2.3 Functionality For full functionality some applications require a dedicated transducer to provide specific data. The table on page 13 summarizes the data required by each application and the major functions of your E-Series Display. In particular, position, heading and speed data are required for the following functions: · Orientation - requires heading data derived from a suitable compass, for the radar to operate in North Up or Course Up mode and the chart to operate in Course Up and Head Up modes. · Man Overboard (MOB) - requires heading and speed data. Alternatively, use speed over ground (SOG) and course over ground (COG) derived from the same source as position data (GPS). · Mini Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (MARPA) and radar/chart overlay functions - requires accurate heading data. MARPA functionality is provided if SOG and COG are also available. Increased accuracy will be obtained by using fast heading data from a suitable compass, Smart heading sensor or compatible Raymarine autopilot.

This will enable you to input, view and maintain data across all your Displays and enable multiple SeaTalk instruments to communicate with one another. When you are installing a network of E-Series Displays you should note the following: · One display will act as the master for SeaTalk, NMEA 0183 and system data including waypoints, routes and tracks. All SeaTalk/SeaTalk2 connections should be made to this master. · If you connect the master display to all other displays in the system via SeaTalk or SeaTalk2, you will negate the need to unplug and reconnect cabling if the master becomes unavailable. · The bridging of data from SeaTalk/SeaTalk2 only occurs at the master. You cannot therefore have additional networks connected to additional E-Series Displays. You can however connect multiple NMEA inputs. · As it is not possible to view a video image across the network, you should connect the Video In cable to the display on which you wish to view the image. The following two pages detail a simple E-Series Networked System with two E-Series displays and no DSM and a more advanced, multiple node system incorporating two (or more) displays and a DSM 300.

Cable types This sections details the various cables used by your display. Please read these guidelines carefully and ensure that you follow the recommendations given. Power cable (R89005) The E-Series Display is intended for use on boats' DC power systems rated at 12v or 24v. The power connection should be made at either the output of the battery isolating switch, or at a DC power distribution panel. Raymarine recommends that power is fed directly to the display and scanner via its own dedicated cable system and MUST be protected by a thermal circuit breaker or fuse, installed close to the power connection. Do not fit switches or circuit breakers in such a way that power may be removed from part of the E-Series networked system while leaving the rest of the system running, as this may result in unit malfunction. This cable is supplied ready for connecting to your boats DC power supply, with a length of screen exposed before the positive and negative wire tails.This screen should be clamped to your boat's earth/ground with a saddle clamp, as shown below: Step 1 Slide towards tails Pre-cut line Step 2 Attach to ship's ground D6621-2 Chapter 3: Installation 29 Extension cable If an extension power cable is required, please note the following: · The wire gauge used may be affected by the scanner type. · To minimize voltage drops, use large gauge cable. · Use the supplied power cable to connect to the display unit. Then use a suitable connector block to connect the free end to the extension cable, taking particular care to ensure the correct polarity. · The maximum length of an extension cable is dependent on the multi-strand cable being used and the voltage of the system: Extension power cable mm2 AWG Length (m) 12V system Length (m) 24V system 1.5 16 not recommended not recommended 2.0 15 2 32 2.5 14 3 41 4.0 11 7 50 6.0 10 9 50 10.0 7 17 50 Note: For further information on power extension cables please refer to the relevant scanner handbook or relevant product pages on our website .
