AA010085 Ethernet connector. Field terminating ethernet connector for bulk ethernet
cable
F AA010084 Ethernet cross-over joiner cable 0.5 m (1.6 ft) female / female.
This can be used to connect no more than 2 network devices together e.g a
radar processor and a GB40 NavComputer.
The cable has female connectors at each end. Two standard ethernet cables
are required to link to network devices.
Connector ends are red in color.
Tip:
When deciding which standard ethernet cables to orde,r locate the crossover
joiner where logically a network linker could be placed in the future if the
system was upgraded.
If more than 2 ethernet devices are going to be used please use the Navico 8
Port Linker (see G).
G AA010009 Navico 8 port ethernet linker: Used to connect more then two ethernet
devices together. Ships with power cable only. Order ethernet cables
additionally. 12 / 24 V DC

Starting up the Radar
When commissioning the Navico radar, leave the unit on Standby for 20 minutes
before transmitting. This makes sure the magnetron reaches optimum operating
temperature, extending the lifetime and aiding the auto tune function. Normal use
afterwards only requires the standard standby count down.
• Select Radar on your OP30 controller or touch screen (8000i),
• Radar Mode shows the current radar mode.
• Select Radar Mode to display an option list:
Transmit
If the radar was in Standby mode, it will start transmitting immediately.
If the radar was Off there will be a pause of 90 - 180 seconds while the radar warms ups
before it starts transmitting.
