Furuno FAX-30 manual Power cable, Ground wire, Preamp unit, Wire or whip antenna

7. INSTALLATION

Power cable

Connect the power cable (supplied) to the power source; white wire to positive [+] terminal and black wire to negative [-] terminal.

Ground wire

Ground the equipment to prevent noise and interference and enable reception of weak signals. Run the ground wire (local supply) between the ground terminal on the facsimile receiver and the ship's grounding bus.

Preamp unit

Connect its coaxial cable directly to the antenna connector on the FAX-30. Note that an extension cable kit (option) is available, in lengths of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 m.

Wire or whip antenna

A junction box or antenna switch (local supply) is required since the connection at the FAX-30 is made with a coaxial cable. Connect a feeder wire between the antenna and the junction box or antenna switch. Attach coaxial connector (option) to a 50 ohm coaxial cable as below and connect the cable between the junction box and the FAX-30. If the connector does not fit the cable, use appropriate adaptor (option).
