Suitable locations

The course computer is designed to be mounted on a vertical and flat bulkhead below decks. Select a location that is:

•dry, protected and well-ventilated

•free from high operating temperatures

•free from excessive vibration

•non-metallic

•accessible for cable routing and sufficiently large to secure the cable clamp under the computer

On sailboats, we also recommend mounting the course computer across the boat on a transverse bulkhead.

Notes:

1.If the only possible location has a metallic surface, you must insulate the base of course computer so it is not earthed.

2.When selecting the mounting location, also refer to the EMC installation guidelines (on page 7).
