Use the 1. 5mm hexagon key to tighten the anemometer and wind vane grub screws (see inset diagram). Apply the template to the top of the mast so that the arrow points towards the bow. Cut the threads for these holes using a 6mm tap. ST80 Active Wind Transducer Installation 5 6. The 30m (97. 5ft) or 50m (162ft) SeaTalk cable is supplied with SeaTalk connectors at both ends. To run this cable down the inside of the mast, the larger (flat) connector must be cut off. Make sure that you leave sufficient cable attached to this connector for rewiring. Assemble the active wind transducer to the top of the mast so that the SeaTalk cable goes through the top (or side) of the mast mounting base. SeaTalk Cable Through the Top of the Mast 1 2 3 4 + + D1555-1 Note: The SeaTalk cable plugs into the 3-pin male connector inside the active transducer arm. 6 ST80 Active Wind Transducer Installation Cable Through the Side of the Mast (1) Active wind transducer arm (2) Bayonet coupling (3) 'O'ring (4) Female SeaTalk connector (5) Socket head screws (6) Mounting base (7) SeaTalk cable D2523-1 Once the mounting base has been attached to the mast top, secure the transducer arm to the base using the bayonet coupling. Twist the coupling until the location pins lock into position. Note: A wrench may be required to turn the bayonet coupling. ST80 Active Wind Transducer Installation 7 Joining the SeaTalk Cable Use a pair of pliers and the 3 "Scotchlock" connectors to rejoin the SeaTalk cable colour-for-colour.

If a 3-way SeaTalk connector block has not already been fitted, secure the block to a suitable bulkhead using the 16mm (5/8in) selftapping screws.

Attach the red (+) and screen (­) wires to the positive (+) and negative (­) battery terminals. The positive line should also be fitted with a 5A fuse/circuit breaker.

Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but good installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could affect the operation of the product. 2. 2 Installation To avoid the risk of operating problems, all Autohelm equipment and cables connected to it should be: · At least 1m (3 feet) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals, e. g. , VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 2m (7ft). A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element. · The equipment should be supplied from a different battery than the one used for engine start. [. . . ] · Some products generate high voltages, and so never handle the cables/connectors when power is being supplied to the equipment. · Always report any EMC related problem to your nearest Autohelm dealer. We will use any such information to improve our quality standards.
