Installing the Processor Unit, Bulkhead mount

1. INSTALLATION

1.3Installing the Processor Unit

The processor unit should be mounted aligned with the ship’s fore-and-aft line. It can be mounted on the deck, bulkhead, or on the underside of a desk. Choose a mounting location which allows you to easily view the power lamp on the top of the unit and which is within ± 2.5° of the ship’s fore-and-aft line.

1.3.1Bulkhead mount

The processor unit is shipped from the factory ready for bulkhead mounting. Orient the processor unit as shown below and fix it to the mounting location with four tapping screws (M5x20). You will set the orientation later on the menu.

Additionally, customizable settings allow users to tailor the system to their specific needs, improving overall usability.

Another significant aspect of the Furuno SC-110 is its robust integration capabilities. The system can seamlessly connect with other onboard electronic equipment, such as radar systems, chart plotters, and autopilots. This interoperability enhances operational efficiency, allowing mariners to control all their navigational tools from a singular platform.

The SC-110 is designed to withstand the rigors of the marine environment. Built with durable materials and an IP67 waterproof rating, it provides reliable performance even in harsh weather conditions. This resilience ensures that the system will serve maritime operators effectively over time without compromising functionality.

In summary, the Furuno SC-110 represents a blend of advanced technology and practical usability. Its high-precision DGPS, AIS integration, user-friendly interface, and robust construction make it an invaluable tool for safe and efficient maritime navigation. Whether for leisure boating or commercial operations, the SC-110 stands as a testament to Furuno’s expertise in the marine electronics field.
