FEATURES • TARGET ANALYZER* function displays targets which is moving and getting close to own ship in red, other targets in green and rain clutter in blue. Speed analyzing range is ±50 kn. * Requires a GPS sensor. When you change the setting of [Target Analyzer Mode] to [Rain], rain clutter is displayed. • AUTO TARGET ACQUIRE function automatically acquires only the targets which are moving and getting close to own ship within the range of 3 NM by Doppler calculation. Automatic Dop- pler function will be activated when there is a target which approaches own ship with the speed of over 3 kn. * The judged speed of target is dependent on its vector towards own ship. • The azimuth resolution can be enhanced to as high as twice with using the RezBoost function. Note 1: RezBoost function reflects the settings of [Antenna Length] which are introduced in page 2-16 and page 2-19. Note 2: Refer to the Operator’s Manual for your Multi Function Display regarding the above new functions. • Instant ON function. This radar sensor does not have a magnetron, therefore preheating of the magnetron is unnecessary. • Reduced electricity emission means no need to worry about the radiation hazard. • Magnetron-less radar means no periodic replacement of magnetron or related parts. • The maximum display range is 72 NM in the single range mode. • ARPA (Automatic Radar Plotting Aid) function applicable range is 24 NM at the maximum. • Dual Range Mode has the following limitations. - The maximum display range is 12 NM. (72 NM when single display) - The maximum detection range is reduced a maximum of 20% compared to the single display. v

1. INSTALLATION AND WIRING NOTICE Do not apply paint, anti-corrosive sealant or contact spray to coating or plastic parts of the equipment. Those items contain organic solvents that can damage coating and plastic parts, especially plastic connectors. 1.1 Mounting Considerations Select a mounting location, keeping in mind the following points: • Install the antenna unit on the hardtop, radar arch or on a mast on an appropriate platform. (a) Common mast (b) Radar mast • Locate the antenna where there is a good all-round view. Where possible, there should be no obstructions to the scanning beam such as superstructure or rigging. Obstructions cause shadow sectors and decrease the overall performance of the radar. The loss of performance can cause false echoes and reduce the quality of the observed images. A mast for instance, with a diameter considerably less than the horizontal beam width of the radiator, will cause only a small shadow sector. However, a horizontal spreader, or cross trees in the same horizontal plane as the antenna unit, would be a much more serious obstruction. You would need to place the antenna unit well above or below it. Be sure there are no metallic objects near the antenna. Vertical beam angle = 22° • It is rarely possible to place the antenna unit where a completely clear view in all directions is available. After fitting the antenna, determining any shadow sectors, their angle and bearing, and their influence on the radar is recommended. 1

1. INSTALLATION AND WIRING • In order to reduce electrical interference, avoid routing the power cable near other electrical equipment on-board. Also, avoid running the cable in parallel with other power cables. • It is not recommended to install the antenna unit on the hardtop of a cabin. Vibra- tions from the antenna unit will pass through the hardtop and into the cabin. Not recommended • Setup the antenna unit position on the FURUNO Multi Function Display after install- ing the unit, referring to the chapter 2. If the antenna unit position is not setup cor- rectly, the radar echoes on the display may not be aligned with the actual target’s bearing. • Select a location that does not allow water to accumulate at the installation location. • A magnetic compass will be affected if the antenna unit is too close to the compass. Observe the compass safe distances mentioned in the SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS to prevent interference to a magnetic compass. • To ensure proper emission of radar waves, do not paint the radiator. • Referring to the outline drawings at the back of this manual, allow space for main- tenance and service. • When this antenna unit is to be installed on a large vessel, consider the following points: • The supplied cable assembly runs between the antenna unit and display (or eth- ernet HUB) and comes in lengths of 10 m, 15 m, 20 m or 30 m. Select the appro- priate length when purchasing. • Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the aerial performance and hot gases may distort the antenna unit. The antenna unit must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C (131°F). 2

1. INSTALLATION AND WIRING Consideration for selecting a location for installation (multiple radars) • In case multiple radars are installed on a ship, DO NOT install the DRS6A-NXT with- in the range of beam area emitted from other radar(s). Use the illustration below for reference when selecting a suitable location for installation. The Solid State Device (SSD) inside the DRS6A-NXT will be damaged if it is within the radar beam emis- sion area from other radar. Locate the radar out of the radar beam (dark gray) of other radar. Other radar More than 20° More than 20° More than 20° More than 20° More than 1 m Suitable location for installing the DRS6A-NXT Installation with the radiotelephone equipment • Install the open antenna away from radiocommunication antennas (SSB, VHF, In- marasat) and GPS antenna to prevent radar interference. • Install the open antenna away from the radiotelephone equipment so that electrical noise does not affect the radiotelephone equipment. Cable routing • In order to reduce the chance of picking up electrical interference, avoid, where pos- sible, routing the power/LAN cable and cable assembly near other electrical equip- ment on-board. Also, avoid running the cable in parallel with other electrical cables. • Make sure that the power/LAN cable and cable assembly do not run horizontally and it is placed away from the cables carrying radio signal and antennas. For large vessels • When this radar sensor is to be installed on a large vessel, consider the following points: • The length of the pre-attached power/LAN cable is 1 m from the open antenna to the connector. • Deposits and fumes from a funnel or other exhaust vent can adversely affect the aerial performance and hot gases may distort the radiator portion. The radar sen- sor must not be mounted where the temperature is more than 55°C (131°F). 3

1. INSTALLATION AND WIRING 1.6 Wiring Wiring considerations • Turn the power at the switchboard off before beginning the wiring. • The 5 A fuse in the fuse holder (supplied with the cable assembly) must be replaced with the supplied 10 A fuse when installing with 15 m, 20 m and 30 m cables. When installing with 10 m cables, the fuse to be used will be different according to the volt- age of ship’s main. Use the 15 A fuse for 12 VDC ship’s main. Use the 10 A fuse for 24 VDC ship’s main. Also, attach the supplied fuse rating label to the fuse holder. For details, see “How to Replace the Fuse” (C32-01604). • The cable assembly and power/LAN cables have connector(s). Do NOT cut the ca- ble assembly and power/LAN cables even if the cables are run through a radar mast. • When you replace the DRS4A/6A/12A/25A with the DRS6A-NXT, the existing cable cannot be used. Use only the cable assembly supplied with this radar sensor. Cable assembly Power/LAN cable: Pre-attached to the antenna unit. 1.
