Locknut | Establishing the ground |
| The ground wire (1.25 sq or more, local |
| supply) should be as short as possible. |
The signal line ground is isolated from the chassis ground, however the power line is not insulated. Therefore, when
123connecting eternal equipment having positive ground, do not ground the signal line to the chassis. If excessive noise shows on the screen, the ground may be inadequate. In this case, attach a steel plate measuring 20 cm by 30 cm on the outside of the hull to provide a ground point. Connect the ground wire
there. Use a “closed” type lug ( ) to make the connection at the display unit.
Do not use an “open” type lug ().

The power supply port is commonly used for connection of external equipment such as a GPS receiver or wind indicator. Use the power/data cable
