SERVER
2 Installation
•The installation includes 6 major steps:
1.Read the installation and operation manual.
2.Plan where to install the transducers, Server and instruments.
3.Install the transducers, then the Server and instruments.
4.Run the cables.
5.Take a break and admire your installation.
6.Learn the functions and calibrate your system.
•Before you begin drilling ... think about how you can make the installation as neat and simple as your boat will allow. Plan where to position the transducers, Server and instruments. Think about leaving space for additional instruments in the future.
•A few ”do nots” you should consider:
-Do not cut the cables too short. Allow extra cable length at the Server so it can be disconnected for inspection without having to disconnect all attached cables.
-Do not place sealant behind the display. The instrument gasket eliminates the need for sealant.
-Do not run cables in the bilge, where water can appear.
-Do not run cables close to fluorescent light sources, engine or radio transmitting equipment to avoid electrical disturbances.
-Do not rush, take your time. A neat installation is easy to do.
•The following material is needed:
Wire cutters and strippers
Small and large philips and small flat head screw driver Hole saw for the instrument clearance hole 63 mm (2½")
2.8mm (0.11") drill for the mounting holes Plastic cable ties
If the cable is not long enough, you can buy the optional Nexus 8 m (26 ft) extension cable ( Art.
If you are doubtful about the installation, obtain the services of an experienced technician.
