1 INSTALLATION
Refer to the outline drawing at the end of the manual for mounting dimensions.
Note: The LCD is made of glass. Handle it with care.
1.1 Installing the Display Unit
The display unit is designed to be flush mounted in a console. When selecting a mounting
location, keep in mind the following points:
• Locate the unit out of direct sunlight.
• Select a location where the display can be easily viewed and the controls can be easily
operated.
• Leave sufficient space around the unit for servicing and maintenance. See the outline
drawing for recommended servicing space.
• The unit weighs 50.7 lbs (23 kg). Be sure the mounting location is strong enough to
support the weight of the unit.
• Locate the unit away from areas subject to water splash and rain.
Procedure
1. Using the paper template supplied in the installation materials, make a cutout in the
mounting location. (Modification of the LCD may be necessary depending on equipment
used. See the table on page iv and “Modification for Switching from Landscape to
Portrait Orientation” in the Appendix for details.)
2. Pull the display unit cover toward you to detach it.
CAUTION
Hold the cover and display unit
together.
The display unit may fall if only the cover
is held.

2 WIRING
2.1 Wiring External Equipment
Connect external equipment to the MU-200C by referring to the drawings in this section. A
cable with connector at both ends is provided to connect equipment. For details, see the
interconnection diagram on page S-1.
General-purpose monitor
To use the MU-200C as a general-purpose monitor, connect equipment with a mini D-SUB
15P connector. In this case do not connect a navigator to the NMEA port. Nav data is output
through the D-SUB 25P connector.

Notes on wiring
• The cover of the D-SUB connector of the cable 06S4078 may be removed to pass the
cable through tubing, bulkhead, etc. Use vinyl tape to bind connector wiring and rubber
cover. This allows the cable to be passed through a hole having a diameter of 30 mm.
• Attach connector SRCN6A13-3S (supplied in installation materials) to the power cable
(cable DPYC-1.5 (Japan Industrial Standard) or equivalent).

4 OPERATION
FURUNO
POWER
Switch
BRILLIANCE ControlLED
Display unit
POWER switch: Turns the power on/off. The LED lamp lights in green when the unit
is turned on and goes off when the unit is turned off.
To turn the MU-200C on and off from the control unit of a video
sounder such as the FCV-1200 series, turn on the POWER switch
of the MU-200C. Note that with the MU-200C turned on and the
FCV-1200 turned off the LED on the MU-200C lights in red. This
means that weak current is flowing to the MU-200C. To turn off the
power completely, turn off the MU-200C.
BRILLIANCE control: Adjusts display brilliance. In some instances brilliance is controlled
from the equipment connected (for example, FCV-1200 series).
LED: Shows display status:
Green: Display on
Red: Power save

5 MAINTENANCE,
TROUBLESHOOTING
WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Do not open the equipment.
Only qualified personnel
should work inside the
equipment.
5.1 Maintenance
Routine maintenance
Regular maintenance is important for good performance. Check the following on a regular
basis to keep the equipment in good operating condition.
• Check that the connectors at the rear of the display unit are tightly fastened.
• Check the ground wire and ground terminal for rust. Clean if necessary. Confirm that the
ground wire is tightly fastened.
• Do not use chemical cleaners to clean any part of the display unit – they can remove
paint and markings.
• Wipe the LCD carefully to prevent scratching, using tissue paper and an LCD cleaner.
To remove dirt or salt deposits, use an LCD cleaner, wiping slowly with tissue paper so
as to dissolve the dirt or salt. Change paper frequently so the salt or dirt will not scratch
the LCD. Do not use solvents such as thinner, acetone or benzene for cleaning.
Fuse replacement
The 3 A 250 V fuse on the rear panel protects the equipment from internal fault and
overvoltage. If the fuse blows, find the cause before replacing it. If the fuse blows again
after replacement, request service.
WARNING
Use the proper fuse.
Use of a wrong fuse can cause fire or
damage to the equipment.
