Installation | M5000 Series User Manual
Installation
It is recommended that the unit be powered and connected to a video source to assist in
selecting a suitable mounting location, prior to irreversible modication of the vessel’s helm
station. When planning the monitor location, the following points should be considered to
ensure safe, comfortable and reliable operation:
• Convenience - the mounting location should be easily accessible to allow operation of the
controls and should enable easy viewing of the monitor.
• Viewing distance - the monitor is designed with a nominal viewing distance of 1 metre
(3 ft).
• Access - there must be sucient space behind the monitor to allow cable connections to the
rear connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cable. Also ensure there is sucient access for
tightening wing nuts/screws on the mounting brackets, where used.
• Interference - the selected location should be far enough away from devices that may
cause interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitters/receivers.
• Compass safe distance -
16” monitors 19” monitors 24” monitors
Standard compass 1.90 m (6.3 ft) 2.00 m (6.6 ft) 2.30 m (7.6 ft)
Steering compass 1.10 m (3.7 ft) 1.10 m (3.7 ft) 1.20 m (4.0 ft)
• Environment - to prevent overheating, do not restrict airow at the rear of the monitor;
ensure that there is adequate ventilation, particularly if the monitor is pod-mounted. If
the space behind the monitor is air conditioned or cooled by a fan, it will help in keeping
the unit’s temperature down. The monitors are designed to operate in indoor/outdoor
environments and in high ambient brightness conditions, however, we recommended the
units not be mounted in a location where it will be exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged
periods. The monitor should be protected from physical damage and excessive vibration.
Although the monitor 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.
Warning: Damage incurred to monitor through failure to provide
adequate ventilation could invalidate your warranty. Do not recess
device in to an enclosure shared with a heat source. e.g. engine
compartment.
Cutout template
Use the supplied scale template to help mark up the cutout area.
¼Note: Always check the template dimensions against the physical monitor to ensure
dimensions are correct, prior to making the cutout.
Fixing options
The M5000 series monitors can be dash or bracket mounted (using optional VESA adaptor).
When dash mounting, unit should be tted using the rear mounted dash mount brackets,
and bezel screws from the front. Exclusion of the dash mount bracket will greatly increase
strain on bezel screws and adjacent bezel plastics, and is not recommended.
¼Note: The VESA adaptor xing option is NOT tested against IEC 60945. Monitors that are part
of a type approved system can therefore NOT use the VESA bracket mounting option.

on back of each bezel recess into
opposing slots on screen frame. Once
ush with front surface of screen, slide
top bezel to the left, and bottom bezel
to the right to lock in to place.
VESA mounting the display
¼Note: The VESA adaptor xing option is NOT tested against IEC 60945. Monitors that are part
of a type approved system can therefore NOT use the VESA bracket mounting option.
VESA bracket adaptor is available as an optional part for all display sizes, allowing a variety of
wall and free standing bracket mounting options. The fasteners for attachment to the display
are included with the bracket.
Monitors mounted using a Vesa bracket have IPX2 rating, and should be mounted in an area
sheltered from rain and sea spray.
¼Note: The monitor should not be tilted forward by more than 15 degrees, as this
compromises the IPX2 rating. In fully enclosed helm stations, this limitation may be
disregarded.
¼Note: The bracket mounting points on the monitor are only intended to carry the weight of
the monitor - do not install monitor in such a place where it may be used as a handhold, or
have additional equipment attached to it.

Cleaning and maintenance | M5000 Series User Manual
Cleaning and maintenance
If the display requires cleaning, use a damp soft cloth (e.g. microber) with a mild, non-
abrasive glass cleaner. Ensure cloth is regularly washed or replaced.
¼Note: Do not use paper products as they may scratch the surface. To minimize the risk of
abrasion, allow the screen to air dry.
¼Note: Never use acidic, ammonia based, or abrasive cleaning products to clean the display.
These products will damage special coatings on the glass.
¼Note: To prevent damage caused by lightning strikes, it is recommended to disconnect the
display from the power source during intense storms, or when the product is not in use for
extended periods.
Display removal
The display’s top and bottom bezel trim
must be removed in order to undo the
fasteners holding unit in place by the
mounting ange. The bezel trim have
been designed to be very low prole, and
therefore fully conceal the locking tabs
that keep them from being accidentally
disengaged from the mounting ange. To
release the locking tab, it is necessary to
gently lever the centre of the bezel trim
away from the mounting ange. To remove
the cover, simultaneously slide it sideways;
to the right for the top cover, and to the left
for the bottom cover.
The mounting brackets should be loosened
in reverse order to tting. To remove the
brackets, depress the locking tab before
sliding brackets upwards.
Replacing the gasket
The foam gasket on the rear of the display bezel is available as an optional accessory, should
the factory installed item be damaged.
Fit the two lengths of foam gasket in to the
rebated channel on the back of the displays
mounting ange. Only remove backing
paper from the side to be stuck to monitor,
and only remove a small amount at a time.
Ensure the gasket ends of the two halves
overlap and make contact.
¼Note: take care not to stretch gasket when applying. Only pull gasket minimum amount
required to lay it on straight. The backing paper on outside of gasket will help prevent stretch,
and should only be removed when display is ready to install in to dashboard.

18 |Cleaning and maintenance | M5000 Series User Manual
Replacing the lters
Where displays are installed in an unsealed enclosure, air intake lters should be inspected
yearly, and replaced if noticeably fouled. If vessel is subject to major works involving spray
painting or sanding, it is recommended that the monitor either be removed, or completely
covered in a clean fabric drop cloth.
¼Note: M5016 and M5019 models require three lter elements. The lter accessory kit includes
ve elements.
Other maintenance
Only qualied service personnel should perform any repairs that require opening of the case.
Warning: Some components in the display unit operate on high
voltages. Repairs require specialized service procedures and tools only
available to service technicians - there are no user serviceable parts or
adjustments. The operator should never remove the display unit cover
or attempt to service the equipment. Any attempt to do so may make
the warranty invalid.
Updating the rmware
Updates to the M5000 series monitor rmware may occasionally become available. The
updates will typically include improvements to existing functionality or new features, and will
be made available via the Simrad PRO website: http://pro.simrad-yachting.com/.
Checking current rmware version
On the Conguration page it is possible to see the name of the monitor, resolution (native),
OSD version, BIOS version, and the serial number.
Installing an update
Updates should be loaded via a compatible Simrad device such as the NSO evo2. Refer to the
applicable product manual on how to upgrade a device over NMEA 2000.
Alternatively, return the device to a Navico dealer to arrange updating.
¼Note: We recommend updating the M5000 monitor software via another device on your
NMEA 2000 network.
¼Note: We do not recommend updating more than two displays at the same time. Do not
update the display being used to monitor the update status. In the rare occurrence the
update fails, nothing will be visible on the screen.

Troubleshooting | M5000 Series User Manual
Troubleshooting
Issue Possible Cause
No picture - red LED ON
LED on continuously indicates no (compatible) video is available
on currently selected source;
Conrm that the correct video input is selected
Check that the video signal cable is properly connected to the
display. Test cable with ‘known good‘ equipment
Check display settings of the video source - ensure the
resolution is supported by the display
Ensure brightness is turned up to a suitable level
No picture - red LED OFF
Make sure power is connected to an appropriate DC voltage
source, and that the fuse is tted or breaker is switched on. After
pressing power button, the red LED should blink as monitor
starts up, followed by momentary display of the logo on the
screen.
Image persistence
Image persistence occurs when a ghost of an image remains
on the screen after the screen image has been changed. Unlike
a CRT monitor, an LCD monitor’s image persistence is not
permanent. To erase an image ghost, turn the monitor o for
several hours. To avoid this condition, do not leave the monitor
displaying the same image unnecessarily, for an extended
period of time
