clxxxvi CAUTION: Do not use an open array scanner with an SL70, SL70 PLUS or SL70RC PLUS 7" LCD display unit. Failure to observe this may result in permanent damage to these display units. The 10 kW open array scanner requires 24 V or higher; it will not operate on 12 V systems. This handbook is divided into three chapters as follows: Chapter One provides information to help you plan the scanner installation. It includes sections on Unpacking and Inspecting the Components, Selecting the S

clxxxvii • The equipment is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V (20 V for 10 kW open array scanners) in the power supply to our products, 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 at all times. Cutting and rejoining these cables can compromise EMC performance and s

clxxxix • Radar operates at the line-of-sight, so a high mounting position gives bet- ter long range performance. • Surrounding large objects, in the same horizontal plane, can interfere with the radar signal and cause blind areas or shadow sectors and false targets on the radar screen (see below). However, do not mount the scanner so high that it is affected by the pitching and rolling of the vessel. In addition, you may need to lower the scanner to avoid creating a shadow sector underneat
