Please note the following guidelines when selecting an installation location for the A100:
● The AIS transceiver must be fitted in a location where it is at least 30cm (1ft) from a compass or any magnetic device.
● There should be adequate space around the AIS transceiver for routing of cables.
● The ambient temperature around the AIS transceiver should be maintained between -15°C and +55° (5°F to 131°F). Ensure adequate ventilation is present when panel mounting the transceiver.
● The AIS transceiver should not be located in a flammable or hazardous atmosphere such as in an engine room or near to fuel tanks.
● The AIS transceiver must be installed in a 'below decks' environment protected from the weather.
● The transceiver is supplied with four self tapping screws for attachment of the AIS transceiver to a suitable surface using the trunnion bracket.
● The transceiver is supplied with panel mount clamps for flush mounting through an instrument panel. Access behind the panel is required when using this mounting option.
● The AIS transceiver should be mounted in a location where the display is visible to the user at the position from which the vessel is normally operated.
● An AC power port should be available near to the pilot plug. A pilot plug is located on the front panel
of the AIS transceiver and can also be relocated using the junction box.
