SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

The operator and installer must read the applicable safety instructions before attempting to install or operate the equipment.

WARNING

Radio Frequency Radiation Hazard

The radar antenna emits electromagnetic radio frequency (RF) energy which can be harmful, particularly to your eyes. Never look directly into the antenna aperture from a close distance while the radar ius in operation or eexpose yourself to the transmitting antenna at a close distance. Distances at which RF radiation level of 100, 50 and 10 W/m are given in the table below.

Note: If the antenna unit is installed at a close distance in front of the wheel house, your administration may require halt of transmission within a certain sector of antenna revolution.

This is possible. Ask your FURUNO representive or dealer to provide this feature.

1. MOUNTING

NOTICE

Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray to coating or plastic parts of the equipment.

Those items contain organic solvents that can damage coating and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors.

1.1 Antenna Unit

Mounting considerations

• The antenna unit is generally installed either on top of the wheelhouse, on the radar mast, or on a suitable platform. Locate the antenna unit in an elevated position to permit maximum target visibility.

• A line of sight from the antenna unit to the bow of the ship should hit the surface of the sea in not more than 500 m or twice the ship’s length, depending which value is smaller, for all load and trim conditions.

less than 500 m or twice the ship’s length

• Mount the antenna unit so that any blind sectors caused by objects (mast, etc.) are kept to a minimum. No blind sector should exist in arc of the horizon from right ahead to 22.5° aft of the beam to either side (see Figure 1 below). Also, individual blind sectors of more than 5°, or the total arc of both blind sectors of more than 20°, should not occur in the remaining arc (Figure 2). Note that any two blind sectors separated by 3° or less are regarded as one sector.

Figure 1 Figure 2 a, b, c: less than 5 respectively a+b+c+... : less than 2022.522.5 less than 3

270 90

1-2

• Install the antenna unit safely away from interfering high-power energy sources and other transmitting radio antenna.

• Keep the lower edge of the antenna unit above the safety rail by 500 mm or more.

• Two antenna units should be mounted as below:

more than 20 more than 1 m

• No funnel, mast or derrick should be within the vertical beamwidth of the antenna unit in the bow direction, especially zero degrees ±5°, to prevent blind sectors and false echoes on the radar picture.

• It is rarely possible to place the antenna unit where a completely clear view in all directions is available. Thus, you should determine the angular width and relative bearing of any shadow sectors for their influence on the radar at the first opportunity after fitting.

• Locate a direction finder antenna clear of the antenna unit to prevent interference to the direction finder. A separation of more than two meters is recommended.

• A magnetic compass will be affected if the antenna unit is placed too close to the magnetic compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation of the magnetic compass.

• Do not paint the radiator aperture, to ensure proper emission of the radar waves.

• The antenna base is made of cast aluminum. To prevent electrolytic corrosion of the antenna base, use the seal washers and corrosion-proof rubber mat and ground the unit with the ground wire (supplied).

• Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the aerial performance and hot gases may distort the radiator portion. The antenna unit must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 70°C.

• Leave sufficient space around the unit for maintenance and servicing. See the antenna unit outline drawing for recommended maintenance space.

1-3

Installation precaution for S-band antenna unit If an S-band antenna unit is mounted near the end of a platform to provide sufficient rotation clearance for the radiator, the antenna unit, because of its weight, swings up and down by ship’s vibration and rolling. This exerts excessive levels of stress at the base of the radiator, which can damage the radiator. To prevent this, relocate the antenna unit, or if relocation is not possible, reinforce the platform.

Mast for DF, etc.

Mount the antenna unit directly on the mast or on the platform, as near as possible to center of the mast.

Mast for DF

Remarkable vibration (pitching)

Fastening the antenna unit to the mounting platform See the figure on the next page for antenna unit mounting.

1. Referring to the antenna outline drawing, drill eight fixing holes of 15 mm in diameter in the radar mast platform or the deck.

• The diameter of the mast for fixing the antenna unit platform must be over 250 mm.

• The thickness of the antenna unit platform must be over 15 mm.

• The reinforcement rib must be installed diagonally as shown below.

Over 15mm

250mm diameter or more, 6 mm thick or more

Use two nuts.

The monitor unit can be flush mounted in a console panel, or mounted on a desktop using the optional accessories. For MU-190/231, see the applicable Operator’s Manual(s).

Note: FAR-2137S-BB has no monitor unit. Prepare a suitable one locally.

Recommended monitor: SXGA (1280x1024), aspect ratio 5:4

Mounting considerations When selecting a mounting location, keep in mind the following points:

• Select a location where the display unit can be viewed conveniently and where the screen can be viewed while facing towards the bow.

• Select a suitable mounting location considering the applicable distance.

• The optimal viewing distances for the radar display units are: MU-170C: 920 mm, MU-201CR: 1080 mm, MU-231CR: 1200 mm.

• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight and away from heat sources because of heat that can build up inside the cabinet.

• Locate the equipment away from places subject to water splash and rain.

• Leave sufficient space on the sides and rear of the unit to facilitate maintenance.

• A magnetic compass will be affected if the monitor unit is placed too close to the magnetic compass. Observe the compass safe distances on page ii to prevent deviation of a magnetic compass.

2. WIRING

Wiring consideration

• To lessen the chance of picking up electrical interference, avoid where possible routing the signal cable near other onboard electrical equipment (radars, transmitting radio antennas, etc.) Also avoid running the cable in parallel with power cables. When crossing with other cable, the angle should be 90°to minimize the magnetic field coupling.

• The signal cable run between the antenna and processor units is available in lengths of 15 m (standard), 30 m and 50 m. Whatever length is used it must be unbroken; namely, no splicing allowed. Use the signal cable as short as possible to minimize attenuation of the signal.

• The radar should be connected to an emergency power source, as required by SOLAS

3.4 Heading Alignment

You have mounted the antenna unit facing straight ahead in the direction of the bow.

Therefore, a small but conspicuous target dead ahead visually should appear on the heading line (zero degrees).

In practice, you will probably observe some small bearing error on the display because of the difficulty in achieving accurate initial positioning of the antenna unit. The following adjustment will compensate for this error.

000 010 020

170180190 α Target αCorrect bearing relative to heading

Antenna mounted error to port (HDG SW advance)

Picture appears deviated clockwise.

000 010 020

170180190 β Target βApparent position of target

Antenna mounted error to starboard (HDG SW delayed)

Picture appears deviated counterclockwise.

Correct bearing relative to heading

Apparent position of target

Heading alignment

1. Select a stationary target echo at a range between 0.125 and 0.25 nm, preferably near the heading line.

2. Operate the EBL control to bisect the target echo.

3. Read the target bearing.

4. Measure the bearing of the stationary target on the navigation chart and calculate the difference between actual bearing and apparent bearing on the radar screen.

5. Press the [MENU] key to show the main menu.

6. While pressing and holding down the [HL OFF] key, press the [MENU] key five times.

3.5 Adjustment Sweep Timing

Sweep timing differs with respect to the length of the signal cable between the antenna unit and the processor unit. Adjust sweep timing at installation to prevent the following symptoms:

• The echo of a “straight” target (for example, pier), on the 0.25 m range, will appear on the display as being pulled inward or pushed outward. See Figure below.

• The range of target echoes will also be incorrectly shown.

(1) Correct (2) Target pushed (3) Target pushed inward outward

Examples of correct and incorrect sweep timings

1. Transmit on the 0.25 nm range.

2. Adjust radar picture controls to display picture properly.

3. Select a target echo which should be displayed straightly.

4. Press [4] key to choose the [TIMMING ADJ] on the [ECHO ADJ] menu.
