HybridTouch overview
If your multifunction display features HybridTouch,
this enables you to operate the unit using the
touchscreen and the physical buttons.
A HybridTouch display has physical buttons
which can be used in addition to the touchscreen.
Touchscreen only multifunction displays (which
do not have physical buttons) can be connected
to a remote keypad which allows HybridTouch
functionality.
All functions can be accessed using the touchscreen.
However, there may be situations (such as rough
sea conditions) when it is not appropriate to use
the touchscreen. In these situations, Raymarine
strongly recommends that you activate the touch
lock and use the physical buttons to operate your
multifunction display.

General location requirements


When selecting a location for your product it is
important to consider a number of factors.
3 4 5 Key factors which can affect product performance
are:
• Ventilation
To ensure adequate airflow:
6 7 8
– Ensure that product is mounted in a
D12171-2
compartment of suitable size.
– Ensure that ventilation holes are not obstructed.

8. Drill bit for surface mounting or bracket mounting. allows proper routing, support and connection of
cables:
– Minimum bend radius of 100 mm (3.94 in)
unless otherwise stated.
– Use cable clips to prevent stress on connectors.
– If your installation requires multiple ferrites to
be added to a cable then additional cable clips
should be used to ensure the extra weight of
the cable is supported.
• Water ingress
The product is suitable for mounting both above
and below decks. Although the unit is waterproof,
it is good practice to locate it in a protected area
away from prolonged and direct exposure to rain
and salt spray.
• Electrical interference
Select a location that is far enough away from
devices that may cause interference, such as
motors, generators and radio transmitters /
receivers.
• Power supply
Select a location that is as close as possible to the
vessel’s DC power source. This will help to keep
cable runs to a minimum.

Planning the installation 27


Compass safe distance
To prevent potential interference with the vessel's
magnetic compasses, ensure an adequate distance 1
is maintained from the display.
2
When choosing a suitable location for the
3
multifunction display you should aim to maintain the
maximum possible distance between the display and
any compasses. Typically this distance should be at
least 1 m (3 ft) in all directions. However for some
smaller vessels it may not be possible to locate
the display this far away from a compass. In this
situation, the following figures provide the minimum
safe distance that should be maintained between the 1
display and any compasses.

the display for a short time.

Cleaning the display screen


A coating is applied to the display screen. This
makes it water repellent, and prevents glare. To
avoid damaging this coating, follow this procedure:
1. Switch off the power to the display.
2. Rinse the screen with fresh water to remove all
dirt particles and salt deposits.
3. Allow the screen to dry naturally.
4. If any smears remain, very gently wipe the screen
with a clean microfibre cleaning cloth (available
from an opticians).

Cleaning the sun cover


The supplied sun cover features an adhesive surface.
In certain conditions unwanted contaminants may
stick to this surface. To avoid damaging the monitor
display, clean the sun cover regularly following this
procedure:
1. Carefully remove the sun cover from the display.
2. Rinse the sun cover with fresh water to remove
all dirt particles and salt deposits.
3. Allow the sun cover to dry naturally.

Appendix C NMEA data bridging
NMEA data bridging allows data that exists on the
display’s NMEA 2000 bus to be repeated to NMEA
0183 devices, and vice versa.
An example of NMEA data bridging is in a system
that includes a third-party GPS receiver connected
to the NMEA 0183 Input of a Raymarine display.
The GPS data messages transmitted by the GPS
receiver are repeated to any appropriate devices
connected to the display's NMEA 2000 bus. Bridging
only occurs when the data is being transmitted by
an NMEA 0183 device that is not already being
transmitted by a NMEA 2000 device, and vice versa.
For a list of data messages (PGN sentences) that
are bridged between NMEA 2000 and NMEA 0183,
refer to the list of supported NMEA 2000 sentences
provided in this document.
