The PG-1000 must be indoor on the horizon- tal plane.

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

The ambient temperature must be between -15°C and 55° C.

Vibration at the mounting location should be minimal.

Install the sensor as far as possible from power cable, ferrous materials.

Install the sensor ship's center of gravity.

Align the bow mark with the ship's bow on the fore-and-aft-line.
