Display Unit 0.98 m 0.74 m
CAUTION
WARNING
Do not work inside the
equipment unless totally
familiar with electrical
circuits.
Hazardous voltage which can
shock, burn or cause serious
injury exists inside the equip-
ment.
Turn off the power at the
mains switchboard before
beginning the installation.
Post a sign near the switch
to indicate it should not be
turned on while the equip-
ment is being installed.
Fire, electrical shock or
serious injury can result if the
power is left on or is applied
while the equipment is being

System Configuration
TheGP-1850/1850Dmainlyconsists of a display unit and aGPSantenna.ADGPS
beacon receiver is provided inside the display unit for GP-1850D type. The mini
chart card drive in the display unit loads electronic charts. External equipment
which may be connected include an autopilot and a DGPS beacon receiver (GP-
1850).

1. Installation of Standard Equipment
1.1 Installation of Display Unit
Mounting considerations
The display unit can be installed on a tabletop, on the overhead or flush mounted
in a console or panel.
OverheadTabletopHard Cover
Figure 1-1 Tabletop, overhead mounting methods
When selecting a mounting location for the display unit keep the following in mind:
• Keep the display unit out of direct sunlight.
• The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable.
• Locate the unit away from exhaust pipes and vents.
• The mounting location should be well ventilated.
• Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal.
• Keep the unit away electromagnetic field generating equipment such as motor,
generator.
• For maintenance and checking purposes, leave sufficient space at the sides
and rear of the unit and leave slack in cables.
• A magnetic compass will be affected if placed too close to the display unit.
Observe the following compass safe distances to prevent disturbance to the
magnetic compass:
Standard compass: 0.98 meters
Steering compass: 0.74 meters
• Rubber Cushions which absorb vibration (supplied) maybe attached as below
if vibration is a problem.

Mounting procedure
Follow the procedure below to mount the display unit on a tabletop or the over-
head.
Tabletop, overhead mounting
1. Fix the hanger by four tapping screws M5 X 16.
2. Screw knob bolts in display unit, set it to hanger, and tighten knob bolts.
3. Attach hard cover to protect LCD.
WARNING

Flush mounting
Note: Use supplied pan head screws when the thickness of the bulkhead is from
11 to 14 mm. For bulkhead which exceeds 14 mm in thickness the length of the
pan head screws should be bulkhead thickness plus 7.3±1.5 mm. Also the length
of B below should max. 7 mm.

1. Prepare a cutout in the mounting location whose dimensions are as shown in
Figure 1-3.
2. Fix the display unit by six pan head screws M4 X 20. Refer to the outline
drawing on page D-2.

1.2 Installation of Antenna Unit
Mounting considerations
Install the antenna unit referring to the installation diagram on page D-3 or D-4.
When selecting a mounting location for the antenna unit, keep in mind the follow-
ing points:
• Select a location out of the radar beam. The radar beam will obstruct or prevent
reception of the GPS satellite signal.
• The location should be well away from a VHF antenna.AGPS receiver is inter-
fered by a harmonic wave of a VHF antenna.
• There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites.
Objects within line-of-sight to a satellite, for example, a mast, may block recep-
tion or prolong acquisition time.
• Mount the antenna unit as high as possible. Mounting the antenna unit as high
as possible keeps it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can inter-
rupt reception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes.
• The length of the whip antenna for the GP-1850D should be no longer than 1.2
meter to prevent antenna damage. Do not use a 2.5 meter whip antenna.
• If the antenna cable is to be passed through a hole which is not large enough to
pass the connector, you may unfasten the connector with a needle nose pliers
and 3/8-inch open-end wrench. Refasten it as shown in Figure 1-4 after run-
ning the cable through the hole.
