Where can the SeaTalk
2
Keyboard be mounted?
The Seatalk2 keyboard can be flush or trunnion mounted either indoors or outdoors. It is
waterproof to CFR-46 standard.
Important:
The drain tube is not required if the keyboard is mounted indoors or in an area protected
from rain and/or sea spray. If mounting the keyboard outdoors or in an unprotected area
the drain tube will need to run to a suitable exit point below the level of the keyboard.
What configuration should I use?
How you connect the keyboard depends on the distances between your E-Series Display, the
keyboard and power source and whether or not you are connecting the keyboard to an
existing SeaTalk2 system. Select the appropriate configuration from the following:
