Introduction  
When planning the installation the following points must be  
considered:  
Your Raymarine sunlight  
Your Raymarine display is sunlight viewable and visible in  
direct sunlight. There are, however, limitations to the amount  
of heat the display can absorb before developing problems.  
If temperatures exceed the normal temperature operating  
range the display could overheat and begin to blackout due  
to the limiations of TFT LCD technology.  
viewable marine display is  
visible in direct sunlight.  
The colors of the display  
may seem to vary when  
viewed against a colored  
background or in colored  
light. This is a perfectly  
normal effect that will be  
seen with all color liquid  
crystal diplays (LCD’s).  
In order to minimze the chances of a malfunction, the  
following precautions should be taken during installation:  
The display should be installed in an area where there is  
proper and adequate ventilation. If it is possible to cool  
the area behind the display, it will significantly reduce the  
risk of a malfunction.  
The display should be mounted at an angle to the sun.  
We do not recommend mounting the unit in a flat plane,  
which increases the surface area exposed to the sun and  
leads to increased heat absorption.  
In common with all Thin  
Film  
Transistor  
(TFT)  
displays, the screen may  
exhibit a few (less than 20)  
wrongly illuminated pixels.  
These may appear as

portion of the screen, or as  
colored pixels in black  
areas.  
IMPORTANT: Your Raymarine display is only waterproof from  
the front. To maintain watertight integrity the display must be  
flush mounted ensuring that the rear casing is enclosed in a  
watertight enclosure.  
Installation  
It is important that your new display is installed and operated in  
accordance with the instructions provided in this handbook.  
Failure to do so could result in poor product performance and  
may invalidate your warranty.

Installation  
EMC installation guidelines  
All Raymarine equipment and accessories are designed to best  
industry standards for use in the recreational marine  
environment.  
The equipment is supplied from a separate battery to that  
used for engine start. Voltage drops below 10 V, and  
starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to  
reset. This will not damage the equipment, but may  
cause the loss of some information and may change the  
operating mode.  
Their design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate Elec-  
tromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards, but correct  
installation is required to ensure that performance is not compro-  
mised. Although every effort has been made to ensure that they  
will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand  
what factors could affect the operation of the product.  
Raymarine specified cables are used. Cutting and rejoining  
these cables can compromise EMC performance and must  
be avoided unless doing so is detailed in the installation  
manual.  
If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable, this ferrite  
should not be removed. If the ferrite needs to be removed  
during installation, it must be reassembled in the same  
position.  
The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum  
EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may not be  
possible to meet all of these conditions in all situations. To  
ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within  
the constraints imposed by any location, always ensure the  
maximum separation possible between different items of elec-  
trical equipment.  
Connections to other equipment  
If your Raymarine equipment is to be connected to other equip-  
ment using a cable not supplied by Raymarine, a suppression  
ferrite MUST always be attached to the cable near to the  
Raymarine unit.  
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that wher-  
ever possible:  
Raymarine equipment and cables connected to it are:  
At least 3 ft. (1m) from any equipment transmitting, or  
cables carrying radio signals, e.g. VHF radios, cables  
and antennas. In the case of Single Side Band (SSB)  
radios, the distance should be increased to 7 ft. (2m).  
More than 7 ft. (2m) from the path of a radar beam. A  
radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20  
degrees above and below the radiating element.

Grounding the display  
Planning the installation  
Before you install your display, the following points should be  
considered:  
It is important that an effective radio frequency (RF) ground is  
connected to the display. You must ground the display by  
connecting the drain wire (shield) of the power input cable to the  
nearest ground point of the boat’s RF ground system.  
• Power requirements.  
• Cable runs.  
• Display location and mounting options.  
• Additional accessories, e.g. keyboard or speakers.  
Power connections  
CAUTION  
Power requirements  
CAUTION  
Thermal circuit breaker  
If you do not have a thermal circuit breaker or  
fuse in your power circuit, e.g. fitted to the DC  
distribution panel, you MUST fit an in-line breaker  
or fuse to the positive (red) lead of the power  
cable.  
Power requirements  
This display is not intended for use on boats with  
“positive” ground. The power input cable earth  
screen connections must be connected directly  
to the boats ground.  
The power connection to the display should be made at either  
the output of the battery isolator switch, or at a DC power distri-  
bution panel. Raymarine recommends that power is fed directly  
to the display via its own dedicated cable system and MUST be  
protected by a thermal circuit breaker or fuse, fitted close to the  
power connection. If you do not have a thermal circuit breaker or  
fuse in your power circuit, you MUST fit an in-line breaker or  
fuse to the positive (red) lead of the power cable.  
Your Sunlight Viewable display is designed to run on boat’s DC  
power systems rated at 12 V or 24 V. A cable of 1.5 m length is  
supplied for connecting the display to your boats DC power  
system.  
The DC power system should be either:  
• Negativegrounded, with the negative battery terminalconnected  
to the boat’s ground, or,  
• Floating, with neither battery terminal connected to the boat’s  
ground.  
Refer to the following table for isolator switch circuit breaker or  
fuse value ratings.  
Check all terminal connections are clean.

DO NOT pull the cable through bulkheads using a  
cord attached to the connector. this may damage  
the connections  
You need to attach one or more of the cables shown in “Typical  
installation” on page 9. Consider the following points before  
running any cables:  
Extending the power cable  
Longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to mini-  
mize any voltage drop in the cable. Ensure that the minimum  
voltage specification of the display is met at the junction of these  
cables when the display is operating at full brightness.  
All cables should be adequately secured, protected from  
physical damage and exposure to heat. Avoid running cables  
through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot  
objects.  
If a longer power cable run is required, use the supplied power  
cable to connect the free end to the extension cable; take partic-  
ular care to ensure correct polarity and grounding of the  
screening braid to the boat’s RF system.  
Acute bends must be avoided.  
Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or  
deckhead, a watertight feed-through should be used.  
Secure cables in place using tie-wraps or lacing twine. Coil  
any extra cable and tie it out of the way.  
The supplied power cable has a cross section of 12 AWG (3.3  
2
mm ).  
Display location and mounting options  
Your display can be mounted using the flush mounting kit  
supplied. Raymarine recommends that you power the unit and  
select a suitable mounting location prior to installing the display.  
When planning the display location, the following points should  
be considered to ensure safe, comfortable and reliable  
operation:  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Installation  
Convenience- the mounting location should be easily  
15  
Mounting options  
accessible to allow operation of the controls and should  
enable easy viewing of the display.  
Installation angle- the display should be mounted at an  
angle. Mounting it in a flat plane is not recommended due to  
increased heat absorption.  
Viewing angle - this LCD has been chosen to give the very  
best performance, including viewing angle. However, the  
contrast and colors seen on all LCD displays vary slightly  
with viewing angle.  
Horizontal fixing  
Your monitor can be  
installed using the  
mounting  
brackets  
(supplied) in either the  
horizontal or vertical  
keyways.  
Vertical  
fixing  
Make sure that both  
brackets are in the  
orientation  
(either both vertical or  
both horizontal).  
Access - there must be sufficient space behind the display  
to allow cable connections to the rear connectors, avoiding  
tight bends in the cable.  
Interference - the selected location should be far enough  
away from devices that may cause interference, such as  
motors, generators and radio transmitters/receivers.  
Magnetic compass - mount the display at least 1 metre (3  
ft.) away from a magnetic compass.  
Environment - to prevent overheating, do not restrict airflow  
at the rear of the display unit; ensure that there is adequate  
ventilation, particularly if the display unit is pod-mounted. If  
the space behind the display is air conditioned or cooled by a  
fan , it will help in keeping the unit’s temperature down when  
mounted in direct sunlight.  
same  
IP address label  
You will find a removeable label on your display with an IP  
address that will be required to ensure communication with other  
Raymarine products.  
Before installing your monitor carefully remove this label and  
attach it to this handbook or a suitable log book for future  
reference.  
FAILURE TO ADEQUATELY VENTILATE THE UNIT  
COULD INVALIDATE YOUR WARRANTY.  
The display should be protected from physical damage and  
excessive vibration. Although the display unit is waterproof  
from the front when installed correctly, it is good practice to  
mount it in a protected area away from prolonged and direct  
exposure to rain and salt spray. DO NOT place the display  
near to a heat source.

Split  
To select an input source:  
Selecting this option splits the main screen in two sections verti-  
cally. The PIP enlarges to occupy half of the screen width,  
squashing the main screen into the other half. This option does  
not maintain aspect ratios and therefore results in both images  
looking ‘squashed’.  
With the display powered ON, press the button corresponding to  
the input source required for the main screen.  
The selected source is shown in the bottom right-hand corner of  
the display.  
Layout

these are:  
Child.  
Split.  
Wide.
