REVIEW: Need something about how you don’t want to get hit by the spinning thing and that it is emitting microwave energy so you should not look at it or be near it. The Radar is intended to be used as a supplementary aid to navigation and must not be considered a replacement for other prudent navigation techniques. The captain of a vessel is ultimately responsible for its safe navigation and the prudent mariner does not rely on any single source of information.

Power Supply For the radar sensor to be operated normally, the power supply (battery) detailed in “Power Supply Requirements” is required. Note also that if the battery is discharged, its voltage may fluctuate greatly, causing the radar to malfunction. When starting up the radar system or beginning transmission, an additional startup current is required on the power line. Carefully check the power supply system including wiring by using a circuit tester. Power Supply Requirements The radar sensor power supply may provide anywhere from 10.2 to 41.6 VDC. The following table describes the current requirements at 12 and 24 VDC.

Note: Fuses marked* are included with your radar Determining the Scanner Installation Location A radar’s target detection capacity varies greatly with the position of the scanner. An ideal position is a location high above the ship’s keel line where there are no obstacles all around the scanner. In an actual ship, such an ideal location is limited by various factors. Therefore, consider the following suggestions when you determine the place to install the scanner: 1. Install scanner at a position as high as possible. The higher the installation position, the longer the radio ranging distance. Install the scanner at a position as high as possible after considering the ship’s hull structure and radar maintainability. 2. Install scanner away from smoke-stack and mast. If the scanner is installed at the same height as the smoke-stack or mast, radar waves may be blocked, creating shadow zones or generating false echoes. Therefore, do not install the scanner at such a position. 3. Install scanner forward away from obstacle. To avoid creating shadow zones or generating false echoes, install the scanner at a position nearer to the ship’s bow away from obstacles. When installing the scanner on a mast, position it in front of the mast. (If obstacles cannot be avoided for the ship’s structural reasons, refer to “Shifting away from obstacles” described below.) 4. Do not install the scanner near hot or heat-generating items. Do not install the scanner at a position where it may be subjected to smoke or hot air from smokestacks or heat from lamps. 5. Install the scanner away from antennas of other equipment. Install the scanner as far away from antennas of a direction finder, radio transceiver, etc. as possible. Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 4 6. Make the cable length as short as possible. Keep the distance from the scanner to the control box within the standard cable length of 10 m. If you use longer cable for unavoidable reasons, limit the cable length to a maximum of 100 m. Shifting Away from Obstacles Shifting from keel line By shifting the scanner position from the keel line to one side of the ship, it is possible to move shadow zones to the other side which makes it possible to keep clear vision in the bow direction. The distance to be shifted can be obtained by calculation depending on the distance from the scanner to obstacles using the following equation: Shifting from keel line Obtaining sufficient dip angle Raise the scanner position so that there is a sufficient dip angle (available between the line of sight from the scanner to the obstacle and the horizontal line.) By raising the dip angle above 5 degrees, it is possible to prevent mid- and long-distance shadow zones. The radar cannot detect objects below the line of sight. Obtaining sufficient dip angle Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 5 Mounting Base If a mounting base like one of the ones shown below is available, it may be easier to install the scanner. If such a mounting base is not available in your ship, you may install the scanner directly to the roof or other flat surface. Be sure to pay attention to the water drain tube located at the bottom of the scanner unit during installation. If the radar mast or mounting bracket has a curvature of more than 2 mm (0.1 in), repair it or use spacers. Mounting Bases Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 6 Mounting the Control Box REVIEW: Say something about mounting the box in a cool, dry location! REVIEW: Need to mention that the user might need to open this box after installation in order to configure the switches! Choose the proper bolt length according to the thickness of the surface on which you are going to install the control box. Hole diameter is different when using bolts rather than tapping screws. When using tapping screws, drill appropriately sized holes. When using bolts and nuts, drill holes in diameter of 6 mm (0.24 in). Hole positions for the control box Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 7 Installing the Radome Scanner Referring to the diagram below, drill four holes with a diameter of 12 mm (0.47 in) in the mounting base at the locations indicated below and use these holes to attach the scanner unit to the mounting base with hexagonal bolts. (Use the template included with this manual.) Hole Positions for the RB715A Radome scanner Bolts for Mounting Radome Scanner Unit The bolts included with your radar equipment will suffice for a mounting base thickness of 9 to 14 mm (0.35 to 0.55 in). If the mounting base is thicker or thinner than this, the use the appropriate bolt size from the following table. Thickness of mounting base 1-4 mm (0.04-0.16 in) 4-9 mm (0.16-0.35 in) 9-14 mm (0.35-0.55 in) 14-19 mm (0.55-0.75 in) Bolt Size M10 x 15 (1.5 mm pitch) M10 x 20 (1.5 mm pitch) M10 x 25 (1.5 mm pitch) M10 x 30 (1.5 mm pitch) Material Stainless Stainless Stainless Stainless Remarks Included with radar Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 8 Mounting the Radome Scanner Use a silicon sealer to prevent the bolts from becoming loose. The Radome may be damaged if you use locking putty. Connecting the Scanner to the Control Box Lay cables firmly in place by following the instructions below: Notes: • • • • Do not bind the cable for the radar collectively with cables of other equipment (especially the power supply cable). Leave clearance near the inlet of the display so you can remove the control box easily. This facilitates installation and maintenance of the control box. Because the cable has a connector on both sides, if it is necessary to pass cable through a narrow path, use vinyl tape to affix the scanner-side connector to the cable before passing the cable through the path. Lay cable along the ship’s hull or wall surface and attach it in place at intervals of about 40 cm (16 in). Interconnecting Cable 1. Be sure that the power is off. Connect the cable to the plug labeled “SCANNER” on the control box. Be sure to secure the rubber boot around the cable connector rim. 2. Remove the upper part of the radome from the scanner unit. Lift it vertically to avoid bumping it against the antenna. (There are four screws to remove first.) 3. Remove the tape securing the antenna. 4. Remove the shield cover located on the backside. (There are four screws to remove first.) 5. Remove the cable clamping plate and rubber ring, pass the cable through the opening, replace the rubber ring, and clamp the cable to the scanner unit with screws on the fixing plate. Attach the 7-pin connector to X11 and 9-pin connector to X12 of the printed circuit board. Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 9 6. Replace the aluminum cover. Lay the cable shield into the channel machined into the aluminum housing. Be careful that the cable will not get caught up between the main unit and the cover. 7. Replace the upper part of the radome being careful not to bump it against the antenna. Make sure that the cover is positioned in the correct direction. The upper and lower parts of the radome each have four alignment markings indicating screw positions.

Lay cable along the ship’s hull or wall surface and attach it in place at intervals of about 40 cm (16 in). Interconnecting Cable 1. Be sure that the power is off. Connect the cable to the plug labeled “SCANNER” on the control box. Be sure to secure the rubber boot around the cable connector rim. 2. Use a socket wrench to remove the back cover of scanner unit. 3. Remove the two bolts securing the transceiver. 4. Remove the connectors to the motor (X1: RB716A, J5:RB717A/718A) and to the heading switch (X2: RB716A, J3: RB717A/718A). Pull out the transceiver. 5. Remove the four bolts securing the fixing plate at the cable entrance. 6. Remove the metal fixing plate, rubber seal and washer that secure the cable. Pass the cable through as shown in the diagram below; replace the above items and tighten the bolts. 7. Return the transceiver to its original position and secure it with the bolts you removed. 8. Connect the 7-pin connector to X11 (RB716A)/J2 (RB717A/718A) and the 9-pin connector to X12 (RB716A)/J1 (RB717A/718A) of the printed circuit board and connect the two connectors that you removed in Step 4. 9. Reattach the scanner cover. Take care not to pinch the cable when reattaching the cover. Rose Point Radar Installation Guide Attaching the Interconnecting Cable 15 Rose Point Radar Installation Guide Grounding wire Connect a grounding wire from one of the bolts on the scanner base as shown below. (The crimp terminal and grounding wire is user supplied.) 16 Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 17 Power Supply Cable Power should be fed through a switch and protective fuses or a circuit breaker. CAUTION: Do not apply more than 41.6V to the radar or it may be permanently damaged! Connect the power supply cable (included with your radar) to the receptacle labeled “POWER” on the control box and connect to power supply as followings. The red and green wires are not used and should be covered with electrical tape to prevent a short circuit. Place the fuse and connection part in a dry area where water will not splash. When extending the power supply cable, use a suitable cable as below. REVIEW: This is 11 or 12 AWG wire… Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 18 Optional On/Off Control Switch You may use the On/Off control switch provided or another style of switch if desired. If you choose to use a different style, it must be rated for 30 VDC or more and have a current carrying capacity of 0.1 A or higher. Using a switch is optional. If you choose not to use a switch, connect the green and blue wires together and cover with electrical tape. The On/Off control switch does not carry the main power for operating the scanner unit. 1. Route the green and blue wires to the location for the On/Off control switch. 2. If you choose to use the switch provided, refer to the diagram below to layout and cut a rectangular hole for the switch. 3. Pass the green and blue wires through the hole from behind the panel and connect the wires to the switch. 4. Press the switch into the mounting hole. 5. Place the On/Off control switch in the Off position. Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 19 Connecting the Control Box to your Navigation Computer The Rose Point Radar has a very flexible Ethernet network-based interface that allows it to be networked with your PC, or in some cases multiple PCs, in many different ways. This guide will help you decide the right way to configure the network for your situation and provide the details you need to insure continuous and reliable operation of your radar. Using a Cross-Over Cable The radar control box and PC may be connected directly together via a cross-over-cable which is available at most computer supply stores. This is like a normal networking cable, except that some wires are swapped which connects the transmit line from one to the receive line on the other and vice-versa. A similar configuration consists of two standard network cables and a cross-over coupler which essentially converts two standard cables into a cross-over cable. Each device on a network needs an “IP address” which allows one device to “talk” directly to another. Normally a router is used to automatically assign these addresses using a service called DHCP. However, since this configuration does not include a network router, some manual adjustments must be made. The easiest way to make the necessary adjustments is to tell Coastal Explorer to broadcast radar control packets. Broadcasting is a special networking technique that allows one device to send information to all other devices on the network without needing to know their addresses. When the option to broadcast radar control packets is enabled, Coastal Explorer will not try to use a specific radar control box, but will control all of the boxes found on the network. However, since only one radar control box is on the network, only that one will be controlled. This option is set on the Radar Controls Task Pane. When the broadcast radar control packets option is enabled, it really doesn’t matter how your PC’s IP address is configured. However, the option will only work if your PC has exactly one Ethernet adapter. If you have more than one Ethernet adapter, you will need to use one of the other techniques for creating your network. Please see the next section on using an Ethernet hub or switch for more options. A switch inside the radar control box controls whether the box will attempt to acquire an address from the network using DHCP or use its default IP address. In this configuration, you will want to make sure this switch is OFF. Otherwise the radar control box will spend one minute trying to get an IP address every time it is turned on, and during this minute, Coastal Explorer will not be able to detect the radar on the network. The switch is part of a very small set of eight switches inside the radar control box and is switch number 1. Pros  Extremely simple hardware configuration Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 20 Cons   No other devices can be used on the network A small amount of extra software configuration is required Using an Ethernet Hub or Switch An Ethernet Hub or Switch may be used to connect the radar control box and the PC. This configuration is very similar to using a cross-over cable in that a router is not used to configure the network. It has the advantage of allowing more devices to be attached to your network, but you will need to manually configure the addresses of any other devices that you add to the network before they can be used by the PC. The configuration of this sort of network is fairly technical, so if you are not already familiar with how to setup IP addresses, this might not be the best option for you. The technique for assigning an IP address to your PC or other devices varies between Windows versions and different devices and is beyond the scope of this documentation. Refer to the documentation for your version of Windows and any other network devices for setting their IP addresses. To set the static IP address of your radar control box, you must first establish some sort of connection with the radar. One way to do this is to enable the option to “broadcast radar control packets” that was described above. (You should turn the option off once an IP address that is compatible with the rest of your network has been set.) Once Coastal Explorer is working with the radar, click on the Find Box on the toolbar and enter $RadarIP followed by the IP address you want to set. Be sure to use an address that is compatible with your PC’s IP address and subnet mask. After using this command, you will need to power-cycle the radar control box before the new IP address will be used. If you have more than one radar and are trying to set both of their IP address, you must only turn one box on at a time when using the $RadarIP command. Otherwise both radar control boxes will end up with the same IP address and Coastal Explorer will not be able to tell them apart! Pros  Multiple devices can be used on the network. Cons  Complex setup procedure that requires knowledge of network addressing. Using a Router A router or residential gateway can be used to create a local area network that is fairly self-configuring. This is the most flexible configuration option and usually results in a network where a large number of different devices, including multiple PC’s, can communicate with each other. Setup can also be a lot simpler than using a hub or switch since the configuration is fairly automatic. When using a router, most devices on the network will acquire an IP address from that router using the DHCP service. A switch inside the radar control box determines whether it will attempt to use DHCP to Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 21 get its IP address, or if it will use the built-in default IP address. If you are using a router, we recommend that you make sure this switch is ON so that the radar control box will automatically be assigned an IP address that is compatible with the network created by your router. NOTE: UNFORTUNATELY THE CURRENT RADAR CONTROL BOX DOES NOT USUALLY WORK WITH DHCP SO FOR NOW WE RECOMMEND MAKING SURE THE SWITCH IS OFF AND THAT YOU MANUALLY ASSIGN AN IP ADDRESS USING THE $RadarIP COMMAND! WE ARE WORKING WITH KODEN TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. When the DHCP switch in the radar control box is OFF, the radar control box will use its default IP address of 192.168.0.1 or the address you set with the $RadarIP command. Pros   Very simple to configure – it’s mostly automatic A large number of devices can be on the network Cons  Requires a router which probably requires an AC power adapter Firewalls If you are using the standard Windows Firewall, you will see a window asking if you want to allow Coastal Explorer to access your network when Coastal Explorer is first started. Be sure to say yes, or the firewall will block Coastal Explorer from the network and it won’t be able to control your radar! If you said no when first asked and need to change that now, just open the Windows Firewall Settings window, click on the Exceptions tab, click Add Program, and then select Coastal Explorer from the list of programs. If you are using some other firewall, please refer to its documentation to find out how to allow Coastal Explorer to access your network. If you need to be specific about the protocol and port used, the radar uses the UDP protocol on port 10001. Rose Point Radar Installation Guide 22 Installing the Radar Software REVIEW: Until the product has been finished, you must enable radar functionality in Coastal Explorer by typing $radar into the Search Box on the main Coastal Explorer toolbar and press the Enter key. Rose Point Radar Installation Guide Calibrating the Radar REVIEW: Perhaps this should all b e in the Coastal Explorer Reference Manual instead of here?

Description: This may be due to the control box attempting to acquire an IP address using DHCP and not being able to get one. This process can take up to 1 minute, during which time Coastal Explorer will not be able to detect the radar. After one minute, the control box will use its default IP address and Coastal Explorer should be able to detect the radar. Solution: To resolve this problem, make sure you have a DHCP server on your network that is compatible with the radar control box. (A DHCP server is usually part of a router.) Notes: The current radar control box is NOT compatible with most networks and we highly recommend using a fixed IP address configuration rather that attempting to use DHCP! Coastal Explorer detects the radar, but the controls don’t work. Description: Coastal Explorer displays the warm-up countdown and the radar power button changes to Standby, but none of the radar controls will make the radar do anything. This may be caused by the PC not having an IP address that is compatible with the IP address being used by the radar control box. It is important that the PC and radar control box are on the same “sub-net”. If they are not, the PC cannot send information to the radar over the network. Solution: If you are using a router, make sure your router is using an IP address of 192.168.0.50 and has a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. If you are using a cross-over cable, hub, or switch to connect your PC and your radar control box then follow these steps: 1. In Coastal Explorer, open the Radar Task Pane. 2. Enable the Broadcast Control Packets option. This will allow Coastal Explorer to communicate with the radar control box by “broadcasting” control information to all devices on your Ethernet network (which in this case should just be the radar control box).
