EMC installation guidelines
Raymarine® equipment and accessories conform to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) regulations, to minimize electromagnetic interference between equipment and minimize the effect such interference could have on the performance of your system. Correct installation is required to ensure that EMC performance is not compromised.
Note:
In areas of extreme EMC interference, some slight interference may be noticed on the product. Where this occurs the product and the source of the interference should be separated by a greater distance.
For optimum EMC performance we recommend that wherever possible:

• Raymarine® equipment and cables connected to it are:
  ­- At least 1 m (3.3 ft) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g. VHF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be increased to 2 m (6.6 ft).
  -­ More than 2 m (6.6 ft) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be assumed to spread 20 degrees above and below the radiating element.
• The product is supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. This is important to prevent erratic behavior and data loss which can occur if the engine start does not have a separate battery.
• Raymarine® specified cables are used.
• Cables are not cut or extended, unless doing so is detailed in the installation manual.

Note: Where constraints on the installation prevent any of the above recommendations, always ensure the maximum possible separation between different items of electrical equipment, to provide the best conditions for EMC performance throughout the installation.

Compass safe distance
To prevent potential interference with the vessel’s magnetic compasses, ensure an adequate distance is maintained from the product. When choosing a suitable location for the product you must aim to maintain a distance of at least 1 m (3.3 ft) in all directions from any compasses. For some smaller vessels it may not be possible to locate the product this far away from a compass.

PRODUCT AND SYSTEM OVERVIEW

3.1 Product overview
The Quantum™ 2 Doppler Radome is a compact, solid-state Radar scanner, utilizing MARPA technology for target tracking, CHIRP pulse compression for improved range resolution, Doppler technology to make it easier to track moving objects, and Wi-Fi connectivity for easier installation. In conjunction with a compatible multifunction display, the Quantum™ 2 Doppler scanner provides a map-like representation of the area around your vessel, enabling you to identify other vessels, buoys, and land features such as coastlines and hills.

The Quantum™ 2 Doppler Radome has the following features:

• Solid-state technology (no magnetron) for improved efficiency, and rapid start-up.
• Range performance up to 24 nm (dependent on installation location).
• Doppler display, making it easier to track approaching and receding objects.
• MARPA for target tracking (up to 25 targets) and collision avoidance.
• CHIRP pulse compression for improved target range resolution, and reduced background noise.
• Wireless data connection via Wi-Fi, or wired connection via RayNet cable.
• Radar image display and control via Raymarine multifunction display.
• 24 RPM scanner rotation.
• Low power consumption.
• 12 V or 24 V operation.
• Waterproof to IPx6.

Multiple Quantum Radar scanners
Only 1 (one) Quantum™ Radar scanner can be used at any one time, per networked system.
If you have more than one Quantum™ Radar scanner installed on your vessel and want to use them at the same time, the multifunction displays to which the scanners are connected must NOT be networked together. This applies to Quantum™ scanners connected either wired or wirelessly.
For more information, refer to: p.65 — Multiple Quantum Radars — more information

Doppler Radar overview
Doppler Radar technology makes it easier to track moving objects with ground speed exceeding 3 knots.
The Doppler function highlights objects on the Radar display that are moving towards or away from the vessel (e.g. other vessels, but not land or buoys, for example). Stationary targets will not be highlighted.
Doppler Radar technology is particularly beneficial in a marine environment, where poor weather conditions and visibility can make object tracking challenging. With the integration of Doppler information on the Radar display, the process of matching on-screen Radar returns with real-world objects becomes a much simpler task.
Doppler Radar works by transmitting a microwave signal which is then reflected off a moving object at a distance. By analyzing how the object’s motion has altered the frequency of the returned signal, the Doppler Radar can interpret the variation to provide highly accurate measurements of an object’s direction of travel, relative to the Radar scanner.

LOCATION REQUIREMENTS

6.1 Warnings and cautions
Important:
Before proceeding, ensure that you have read and understood the warnings and cautions provided in the following section of this document: p.9 — Important information

6.2 Location requirements
The optimum height for the Quantum ™ scanner is a location that is high enough above the waterline to give a long range line-of-sight to the horizon, but not so high as to be adversely affected by the vessel’s pitching and rolling.

The scanner must also be mounted where it is:

• Above head height.
• Easily accessible.
• As near as possible to the vessel’s centerline.
• On a rigid and stable platform, capable of securely supporting the scanner under seagoing conditions.
• Clear of large objects such as the flybridge, large engine stacks, searchlights, horns, masts, etc. For additional information, see: p.29 — Shadow areas and false echoes
• Clear of heat and fumes.
• At least 1 m (3 ft) from a magnetic compass or other scanners.

Shadow areas and false echoes
Mount the Radar scanner away from large structures or equipment, such as engine stacks, searchlights, horns, or masts. These objects may cause shadow areas and false echoes. For example, if you mount the Radar scanner on a mast, echoes from other targets may be reflected from the mast. Wet sails may also cause shadow areas, so Radar performance may be reduced in the rain. It is particularly important to avoid shadow areas near the bow. Raising or even lowering the Radar scanner may help to reduce these effects.
In shadow areas beyond the obstruction there will be a reduction of the beam intensity. There may be a blind sector if the beam intensity is not sufficient to obtain an echo from an object. This may occur even at close range. For this reason the angular width and relative bearing of any shadow area must be determined at installation.
You may be able to detect shadow areas or false echoes on your multifunction display. For example, sea clutter can be used as a good indicator of blind arcs. Dark sectors on the Radar display indicate possible shadowed areas. This information should be posted near the display unit and operators must be alert for targets in these blind areas.

Radar scanner mounting angle
Ensure the Radar scanner rotates parallel to the water line.
The Radar beam from the Radar scanner is approximately 20° wide in the vertical direction, to give good target detection even when your vessel pitches and rolls.

Planing hull vessels, and some displacement hull vessels, adopt a higher bow angle when the vessel is at cruising speed. This may raise the Radar’s main radiation angle, and can cause poor detection of nearby targets. It may be necessary to compensate for the bow rise to ensure optimum target detection. This can be achieved by fitting a wedge or washers between the mounting platform and the base of the Radar scanner, so that the Radar beam remains parallel to the water line when the vessel’s bow rises at cruising speed.

1. Wedge or washers

Multiple Radar scanners — location requirements
Important location considerations when installing multiple radar scanners on the same vessel.

• Scanners should be mounted above each other, vertically separated by at least 0.5 m (1.6 ft). This applies to all installation locations on the vessel.
• Multiple scanners should be mounted in a way that minimizes interference between the vertical beamwidths of the 2 scanners.
• In all cases, you should aim to achieve as much physical separation as possible, to minimize any potential interference.

6.3 Quantum Wi-Fi only installation requirements
Whilst the Wi-Fi performance has been tested and proven in many different installation scenarios, the requirements below must be taken into consideration before choosing a location for the Quantum™ Radar.

In systems with multiple MFDs, the Radar should be connected to the MFDs that are located closest to it, or to the MFDs with the clearest line of sight to the Radar.
The maximum distance between MFD and Radar will vary depending on the installation environment (i.e. obstructions and interference).
Example 1 — Open air, line-of-sight in optimum conditions

In optimum open air, clear line-of-sight conditions a reliable connection is possible at distances up to 100 m (328 ft). However, there are many factors that can influence this, so a pre-installation site survey should always be performed. For reliable Wi-Fi performance the signal strength should be better than –75dBm. The closer the signal is to zero the better the Wi-Fi performance will be (e.g. –40dBm is better than –75dBm). You can assess the potential signal strength at the desired location during the Pre-installation Site Survey using a Wi-Fi Analyzer app on your smart device.

Example 2 — Signal passing through Fiberglass coach roof

In the example above the maximum distance with acceptable Wi-Fi performance is 15 m (49 ft), due to the heavy fiberglass coach roof that the signal has to pass through.

Example 3 — Signal passing through heavy structure

In the example above the maximum distance with acceptable Wi-Fi performance is 3 m (9.8 ft), due to the metal roof that the signal has to pass through.
Obstacles in the direct line of sight between the Radar and MFD will further impact Wi-Fi Performance. The impact of each obstacle is usually minimal, however the effect is cumulative. Obstacles can include but are not limited to:

• Vessel structure — Where the Wi-Fi signal passes through a vessel bulkhead or a coach roof, the Wi-Fi performance will be impacted. Depending on the material and thickness of the structure the impact may be severe; for example, a thick steel bulkhead may completely block the Wi-Fi signal.
• Radar mounting — The type of installation can impact performance; for example, mounting on a solid steel platform will have a greater impact on performance than mounting on a bar-style mount.
• Electrical equipment and other objects — Any object in the direct line-of-sight between the Radar and MFD can impact Wi-Fi performance. Electrical, electronic and electromagnetic devices will have a greater impact than furniture.
• MFD installation — MFD installation can also impact Wi-Fi performance; for example, if the MFD is surface mounted in a steel construction dash, the Wi-Fi performance will be impacted.

Wi-Fi Signal Reflection
When establishing a location for your Quantum Radar, that will be connected using a Wi-Fi connection, it is important to consider the effects your surroundings can have on the Wi-Fi signal. The Wi-Fi signal will reflect or ‘bounce’ off nearby objects which may create an easier path for the signal to take, whilst your connection may appear reliable it may quickly degrade when you take your vessel out into open water.
Example

1. In this example the Wi-Fi signal is bounced off a nearby vessel and back through the windows on the bridge, this provides an easier path than passing through the metal roof.
2. In this example the Wi-Fi signal is reduced when passing through the metal roof. This, however may be the only path the signal can take when out in open water.

Warning: Quantum Wi-Fi connection
During installation there will usually be structure that affects the Wi-Fi signal. Before using the Radar for navigation, ensure you test the reliability of your Wi-Fi connection in open waters and away from any other vessels or structure.

Wireless location requirements for optimum performance
All wireless devices in your system must be located in such a way that they can reliably receive and/or transmit wireless signals.
A number of factors can influence wireless performance. For example, physical obstacles and certain vessel structures and materials can all negatively impact wireless performance. Therefore, it’s important to check a product’s wireless performance at the desired installation location before drilling any mounting holes.
Vessel construction and materials
Wherever possible, mount products on surfaces constructed from GRP (e.g. fiberglass resin, or foam), or on dry wooden bulkheads.
Conductive materials in the signal path can have a significant impact on wireless signal performance. Reflective surfaces such as metal surfaces, some types of glass and even mirrors can drastically affect performance or even block the wireless signal. Installation locations that are in close proximity to these materials should be avoided. Do NOT mount wireless products directly to conductive materials. This includes any mounting surface or enclosure/pod.
Examples of conductive materials include, but are not limited to:

• carbon fibre, kevlar, or aramid (including sails made from these materials)
• aluminium
• steel

In installations with conductive materials, if available, mount the wireless product using an accessory pole mount or deck mounting kit. A clearance of at least 10 cm (3.9 in) is required to minimize the ground effect from conductive materials. This applies to transmitters as well as displays. If moving the product fixes the problem, consider cutting an antenna clearance hole behind the unit (once the product position and mounting have been finalized).
Wireless performance can also be degraded in locations where the wireless signal passes through a bulkhead containing power cables.
Crew members (especially when wet) can also be obstructive to wireless signals, if their bodies pass through the signal area between wireless sensor and any associated displays.

Checking and optimizing signal strength
It may be necessary to experiment with the location of your wireless products to achieve optimal wireless performance and a clear signal path.
The distance between wireless products should always be kept to a minimum. Do not exceed the maximum stated range of your wireless product (maximum range will vary for each device).
Wireless performance degrades over distance, so products farther away will receive less network bandwidth. Products installed close to their maximum wireless range may experience slow connection speeds, signal dropouts, or not being able to connect at all.
For best results, the wireless product should have a clear, direct line-of- sight to the product it will be connected to. Any physical obstructions can degrade or even block the wireless signal.
Some wireless products feature a signal strength indicator to assist in the process of determining the location with the best wireless performance. Choose the location with the highest and most consistently strong direct signal reading, during a 5 minute monitoring period. Try alternative locations for the transmitter to maximise the signal strength to the displays; e.g. try locations below a hatch or skylight or near to a window. A small change in product position can result in a significant change in the signal strength.

Note:
Some wireless products (e.g. a Hull Transmitter) will not transmit data unless a transducer is connected. Also consider that an NMEA or SeaTalkng product (e.g. an interface) will not transmit data unless an appropriate data source is connected.
Interference and other equipment
Interference from other people’s wireless devices can cause interference with your products. You can use a third-party wireless analyzer tool / smartphone app to assess the best wireless channel to use (e.g. a channel not in use or one used by the least number of devices).
Wireless products should be installed at least 1 m (3 ft) away from:

• Other wireless-enabled products
• Transmitting products that send wireless signals in the same frequency range
• Other electrical, electronic or electromagnetic equipment that may generate interference.

Software updates
It’s also important to ensure all your wireless products are running the latest software versions, as improvements are made over time to wireless performance.
Pre-installation site survey — Wi-Fi Analyzer
Before installing a Quantum Radar, that will be connected using Wi-Fi, a site survey should be performed to ensure the Wi-Fi Signal strength is sufficient to maintain a reliable connection.
It is recommended that you perform the site survey using a smart device and a Wi-Fi Analyzer app (e.g. Wi-Fi Analyzer by Farproc for android devices).

1. Install the Wi-Fi Analyzer app on your smart device.

2. Enable your MFDs Wi-Fi connection: ([Homescreen > Set-up > Wireless connection > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi: On])

3. Make a note of the MFDs Wi-Fi Name ([Homescreen > Set-up > Wireless connection > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi Sharing > Wi-Fi Name]).

4. Go to the location you have chosen for your Radar.

5. Open the Wi-Fi Analyzer app on your smart device and scan available networks.

6. Establish the signal strength of your MFDs Wi-Fi network at the intended install location.
   For reliable Wi-Fi performance the signal strength should be better than –75dBm, the closer the signal is to zero the better the Wi-Fi performance will be (e.g. –40dBm is better than –75dBm).

7. If you have a weak or intermittent signal then you will need to investigate further, please refer to the Wi-Fi location requirements guide to help establish what may be causing the problem.

8. For networks with multiple MFDs, repeat steps 2 to 7 for each MFD in your network.

Pre-installation site survey — Raymarine app
You can also use Raymarine apps such as RayControl or RayView to assess the reliability of the Wi-Fi connection at the desired installation location.

1. Enable your MFDs Wi-Fi connection: ([Homescreen > Set-up > Wireless connection > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi: On])

2. Enable ‘Viewing only’ or ‘Remote control’ from the Mobile apps menu: ([Homescreen > Set-up > Wireless connection > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi Sharing > Mobile apps]).

3. Make a note of the MFDs Wi-Fi Name ([Homescreen > Set-up > Wireless connection > Wi-Fi > Wi-Fi Sharing > Wi-Fi Name]).

4. Go to the location you have chosen for your Radar.

5. Using your smart device, search for available Wi-Fi networks.

6. Find your MFDs network and check the signal strength reported by your device.

7. If you have a strong signal strength, open a Raymarine mobile app such as RayView or RayControl and check functionality at the desired location.
   If you do not experience any performance issues running the app then you can proceed with the installation.

8. If you have a weak or intermittent signal then you will need to investigate further, please refer to the Wi-Fi location requirements guide to help establish what may be causing the problem.

9. For networks with multiple MFDs, repeat steps 1 to 9 for each MFD in your network.

Wi-Fi signal strength
Wi-Fi signal strength is measured in decibel-milliwatts (dBm). The signal strength of the network you are currently connected to is usually represented graphically by a Wi-Fi symbol.
The signal strength range represented by each filled bar is determined independently by each device manufacturer. However, in general the performance will be similar.

• 1/4 — Unable to maintain a connection, usually accompanied by very poor connection speed (LightHouse™ MFD: –150dBm or worse).
• 2/4 — Intermittent disconnects and reconnects, usually accompanied by a slow connection speed (LightHouse™ MFD: –80dBm to –149dBm).
• 3/4 — Reliable connection with good connection speed (LightHouse™ MFD: –70dBm to –79dBm).
• 4/4 — Reliable connection, excellent connection speed (LightHouse™ MFD: –55dBm or better).

MOUNTING

7.1 Tools required
Product installation requires the following tools:

1. Power drill
2. 3 mm drill bit
3. 10 mm drill bit
4. Adhesive tape
5. 13 mm socket
6. Torque wrench

7.2 Mounting pre-requisite: “breather” holes
The base of the unit features a “breather”, a series of small holes which allow air to circulate between the underside of the unit and the mounting surface.

1. Location of “breather” holes.

Ensure that the breather is not blocked in any way. Examples of obstacles to airflow include sealant and paint.
If necessary, use additional washers to allow a small gap between the underside of the unit and the mounting surface, for airflow.

7.3 Mounting the scanner
Use a mounting location that:

• Is robust enough to support the Quantum™ scanner, under seagoing conditions.
• Meets the requirements described under Scanner Position.

Then:

1. Tape the template to the mounting platform, ensuring that the arrow on the template is pointed towards the front of the vessel.
2. Drill 3 mm pilot holes in the 4 positions shown on the template.
3. Drill out the pilot holes to 10 mm diameter.
4. Place the Quantum™ scanner in position. If you are fitting it on a planing vessel, shim the rear of the scanner, so that the beam points slightly down in the forward direction when the boat is at rest, to compensate for the bow rising at cruising speed
   Item| Description
   ---|---
   1| Mounting platform, non-planing boat (level install)
   2| Mounting platform, planing boat (typical planing angle shown)
5. Before securing the scanner to the mounting platform, connect the power cable (and optionally a data cable), ensuring that all cables are routed appropriately. For further information about making connections and cable routing, refer to the follow section: p.45 — Connections overview
6. Ensuring that the bolts have a minimum insertion in the scanner base of 16 mm (0.63 in.), and a maximum of 22 mm (0.87 in.) (allowing for  washers), secure the scanner with the 4 bolts, flat washers and spring washers provided, as illustrated. If necessary, use appropriate shims or extra washers to limit the length of bolt entering the scanner base.
7. Tighten the bolts to a torque of 15 N·m (11 lbf·ft).
8. Attach a safety lanyard (not supplied) to your vessel, and secure the free end to the scanner using the attachment point shown in the following illustration:

Note:
If you are installing the Radar scanner on a sailing vessel, additional protection for the Radar scanner may be required. Refer to p.41 — Radar scanner protection — sailing vessels

Multiple Quantum Radar scanners
Only 1 (one) Quantum™ Radar scanner can be used at any one time, per networked system.
If you have more than one Quantum™ Radar scanner installed on your vessel and want to use them at the same time, the multifunction displays to which the scanners are connected must NOT be networked together. This applies to Quantum™ scanners connected either wired or wirelessly.
For more information, refer to: p.65 — Multiple Quantum Radars — more information

Multiple Radar scanners — location requirements
Important location considerations when installing multiple radar scanners on the same vessel.

• Scanners should be mounted above each other, vertically separated by at least 0.5 m (1.6 ft). This applies to all installation locations on the vessel.
• Multiple scanners should be mounted in a way that minimizes interference between the vertical beamwidths of the 2 scanners.
• In all cases, you should aim to achieve as much physical separation as possible, to minimize any potential interference.

7.4 Radar scanner protection — sailing vessels
Additional considerations apply when installing the Radar scanner on a sailing vessel.

• When mounting the Radar scanner unit onto the mast, check that the unit is not fouled by the sails, especially when tacking.
• Depending on the type of sailing vessel and the design of the sailplan, a Radar scanner guard should be attached to the mast if the sails or rigging contact either the Radar scanner unit or the mounting bracket. Without a proper Radar guard, serious damage can result to the Radar mounting bracket and the Radar itself. In extreme cases, such damage could result in the Radar scanner unit being pulled off the mast. Therefore, it is recommended that a Radar scanner guard should be mounted additionally and separately to the Radar scanner mounting bracket.
• To prevent the risk of the Radar scanner unit falling after it has been damaged, the security lanyard supplied with the mast bracket MUST be secured properly to the mast and to the Radar scanner unit, according to the instructions provided with the bracket. If a safety lanyard is not supplied with the mounting bracket, contact your local dealer for appropriate parts. Do NOT attach other equipment to either the Radar scanner unit or the bracket.
• Raymarine® strongly recommends that you check the condition and security of the bracket mounting feet, the security lanyard(s), the Radar scanner guard, and the Radar scanner unit itself, on a yearly basis (or more frequently depending on environmental applications). Any fittings should be replaced as appropriate.

The following illustration shows an example of an installation featuring a Radar scanner fitted to a typical mounting bracket, a Radar guard attached to the mast (separately to the Radar mounting bracket), and safety lanyards:

1. Example of a typical safety lanyard.
2. Example of a typical Radar scanner guard, attached to the mast independently of the Radar mounting bracket.

Note:
The Radar guard shown in the illustration above is provided as an example only. The exact design and positioning of the Radar guard is wholly dependent on the nature of your vessel, sailplan, and installation environment. For example, for some vessels it is appropriate to locate the guard above the Radar scanner; for other vessels, it may be more appropriate to fit it below the scanner. Raymarine® does not supply Radar guards but recommends that you select a guard that is attached directly to the mast and is completely separate to the Radar mounting bracket. It may be necessary to have a Radar guard custom designed to suit your specific vessel and installation environment. Please contact your local dealer for further advice.

CABLES AND CONNECTIONS — GENERAL INFORMATION

8.1 Cable types and length
It is important to use cables of the appropriate type and length.

• Unless otherwise stated only use cables supplied by Raymarine.
• Where it is necessary to use non-Raymarine cables, ensure that they are of correct quality and gauge for their intended purpose. (e.g.: longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize voltage drop along the run).

8.2 Cable routing
Cables must be routed correctly, to maximize performance and prolong cable life.

• Do NOT bend cables excessively. Wherever possible, ensure a minimum bend diameter (Ø) of 200 mm (7.87 in) / minimum bend radius (R) of 100 mm (3.94 in).
• Protect all cables from physical damage and exposure to heat. Use trunking or conduit where possible. Do NOT run cables through bilges or doorways, or close to moving or hot objects.
• Secure cables in place using cable clips or cable ties. Coil any excess cable and tie it out of the way.
• Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, use a suitable watertight feed-through.
• Do NOT run cables near to engines or fluorescent lights.
• Always route data cables as far away as possible from:
  – Other equipment and cables.
  – High current carrying AC and DC power lines.
  – Antennas.

8.3 Strain relief
Use adequate strain relief for cabling to ensure that connectors are protected from strain and will not pull out under extreme sea conditions.

8.4 Circuit isolation
Appropriate circuit isolation is required for installations using both AC and DC current:

• Always use isolating transformers or a separate power-inverter to run PCs, processors, displays and other sensitive electronic instruments or devices.
• If using Weather FAX audio cables, always use an isolating transformer.
• If using a third-party audio amplifier, always use an isolated power supply.
• If using an RS232/NMEA converter, always ensure optical isolation on the signal lines.
• Always ensure that PCs or other sensitive electronic devices have a dedicated power circuit.

8.5 Cable shielding
Ensure that cable shielding is not damaged during installation and that all cables are properly shielded.
8.6 Suppression ferrites

• Raymarine® cables may be pre-fitted or supplied with suppression ferrites.
  These are important for correct EMC performance. If ferrites are supplied separately to the cables (i.e. not pre-fitted), you must fit the supplied ferrites, using the supplied instructions.

• If a ferrite has to be removed for any purpose (e.g. installation or maintenance), it must be replaced in the original position before the product is used.

• Use only ferrites of the correct type, supplied by Raymarine® or its authorized dealers.

• Where an installation requires multiple ferrites to be added to a cable, additional cable clips should be used to prevent stress on the connectors due to the extra weight of the cable.

8.7 Connections overview
Use the following information to help you identify the connections on your product.

| Connects to a RayNet network or device. Not required if connecting using Wi-Fi. For further information on the suitable cables, refer to the following section: p.79 — Spares and accessories
| Connects to a 12 V / 24 V power supply. A suitable power cable is supplied with your product.

The power and data connections are located on the underside of the scanner unit, as shown in the following illustration.

Typical cable routing scenarios
There are 4 typical cable routing scenarios.
Note:
The routing options described and illustrated in this section assume that a physical data connection is used between your Radar scanner and multifunction display (MFD). However, if the scanner is connected to your MFD via Wi-Fi, a physical RayNet connection is not required.

1. Cable routing for a scanner mounted on a platform, using separate cables for the power and data connection.
2. Cable routing for a scanner mounted on a platform, using the combined power and data cable from an existing Raymarine® Digital Radar scanner installation. For this, the A80308 Y-adapter accessory is required (not supplied with the scanner).
3. Cable routing for a scanner mounted on a pole, using separate cables for the power and data connection.
4. Cable routing for a scanner mounted on a pole, using the combined power and data cable from an existing Raymarine® Digital Radar scanner installation. For this, the A80308 Y-adapter accessory is required (not supplied with the scanner).

Cable routing — platform mount
There are 2 typical cable routing scenarios for platform mount installations.

1. Using separate power and data cables.
2. Using an existing combined power / data cable from an older Raymarine® Digital Radar scanner. In this scenario, the A80308 Y-adapter accessory is required (not supplied with the scanner).

Note:
The routing options described and illustrated in this section assume that a physical data connection is used between your Radar scanner and multifunction display (MFD) / chartplotter. However, if the Radar scanner is connected to your MFD via Wi-Fi, a physical RayNet connection is not required.

Scenario 1: Using separate power and data cables

1. RayNet data connection. (This connection is not required if connecting to the MFD via Wi-Fi.)
2. 12 V / 24 V power connection, via the supplied power cable.

Note:

• Not all Quantum™ radar variants are supplied with a RayNet cable. For more information, refer to: p.14 — Document information
• For information on suitable accessory RayNet cables, refer to: p.79 — Spares and accessories

Scenario 2: Using an existing combined power / data cable from an older Raymarine® Digital Radar

1. RayNet data connection. (This connection is not required if connecting to the MFD via Wi-Fi.). This cable is part of the A80308 Y-adapter accessory cable.
2. 12 V / 24 V power connection. This cable is part of the A80308 Y-adapter accessory cable.
3. A80308 Y-adapter accessory cable (not supplied with the scanner).
4. Existing combined Digital Radar power / data cable.

Cable routing — pole mount
There are 2 typical cable routing scenarios for pole mount installations.

1. Using separate power and data cables.
2. Using an existing combined power / data cable from an older Raymarine® Digital Radar scanner. In this scenario, the A80308 Y-adapter accessory is required (not supplied with the scanner).

Note:
The routing options described and illustrated in this section assume that a physical data connection is used between your Radar scanner and multifunction display (MFD) / chartplotter. However, if the Radar scanner is connected to your MFD via Wi-Fi, a physical RayNet connection is not required.

Scenario 1: Using separate power and data cables

1. RayNet data connection. (This connection is not required if connecting to the MFD via Wi-Fi.)
2. 12 V / 24 V power connection, via the supplied power cable.

Note:

• Not all Quantum™ radar variants are supplied with a RayNet cable. For more information, refer to: p.14 — Document information
• For information on suitable accessory RayNet cables, refer to: p.79 — Spares and accessories

Scenario 2: Using an existing combined power / data cable from an older Raymarine Digital Radar

Note:
The Y-adapter cable is actually white. For clarity, it is shown in the above drawing in different colors.

1. RayNet data connection. (This connection is not required if connecting to the MFD via Wi-Fi.). This cable is part of the A80308 Y-adapter accessory cable.
2. 12 V / 24 V power connection. This cable is part of the A80308 Y-adapter accessory cable.
3. A80308 Y-adapter accessory cable (not supplied with the scanner).
4. Existing combined Digital Radar power / data cable.

Follow the steps below to connect the cable(s) to your product. If you intend to use the scanner’s Wi-Fi functionality to connect to your multifunction display, you need only connect a power cable to the scanner.
Note:
If your vessel is already fitted with a combined power / data Digital Radar cable, you can use a Y-adapter (part number A80308) to connect the existing cable-end to the scanner’s connectors.

1. Ensure that the vessel’s power supply is switched off.
2. Ensure that the multifunction display being connected to the scanner has been installed in accordance with the installation instructions supplied with that device.
3. Ensure the power connector locking collar on the scanner is in the unlocked position.
4. Route the power cable and optional data cable within the scanner base, as shown in the cable routing illustrations in this section. Cable routing depends on whether you mount the scanner on a platform or on a pole, and on whether you are using a Y-adapter to connect to an existing combined power / data Digital Radar cable.
5. Ensure that the power cable connector is orientated so that the notch lines up with the guide in the connector.
6. Push the power cable connector all the way into the scanner’s power connector.
7. Rotate the locking collar clockwise until it is in the locked position (2 clicks).
8. Push the optional data cable fully onto the corresponding connector on the scanner.
9. If you are using a Y-adapter, make the final connection between the adapter and the existing combined power / data Digital Radar cable.

Note:
When switching from a Wi-Fi connection to a wired connection for the Quantum Radar, you may encounter a connection issue if the Wi-Fi connection is established before the wired adaptor completes its initialization procedure. To resolve this issue, upgrade your Quantum unit to the latest software version, and then power cycle the unit.

POWER CONNECTIONS

10.1 Power connection

Note:
A Y-adapter cable (part number A80308) is available for existing installations that already use a combined power/data cable from a Digital or HD Color Radome. The Y-adapter splits the existing combined cable into the separate data and power connectors used by the scanner.

10.2 In-line fuse and thermal breaker ratings
The following in-line fuse and thermal breaker ratings apply to your product:

Note:

• The suitable fuse rating for the thermal breaker is dependent on the number of devices you are connecting. If in doubt consult an authorized Raymarine® dealer.
• Your product’s power cable may have an in-line fuse fitted, if not then you must add an in-line fuse / breaker to the positive wire of your product’s power connection.

10.3 Grounding not required
This product is fully insulated and does NOT require separate grounding.
10.4 Power distribution

2| Product power cable.

• It is recommended that the supplied power cable is connected to a suitable breaker or switch on the vessel’s distribution panel or factory-fitted power distribution point.
• The distribution point should be fed from the vessel’s primary power source by 8 AWG (8.36 mm2) cable.
• Ideally, all equipment should be wired to individual suitably-rated thermal breakers or fuses, with appropriate circuit protection. Where this is not possible and more than one item of equipment shares a breaker, use individual inline fuses for each power circuit to provide the necessary protection.

fitted. For suitable fuse rating, refer to: Inline fuse and thermal breaker ratings.

Important:
Observe the recommended fuse / breaker ratings provided in the product’s documentation, however be aware that the suitable fuse / breaker rating is dependent on the number of devices being connected.
Implementation — direct connection to battery

• Where connection to a power distribution panel is not possible, the power cable supplied with your product may be connected directly to the vessel’s battery, via a suitably rated fuse or breaker.
• The power cable supplied with your product does NOT include a separate drain wire. Therefore, only the power cable’s red and black wires need to be connected.
• If the power cable is NOT supplied with a fitted inline fuse, you MUST fit a suitably rated fuse or breaker between the red wire and the battery’s positive terminal.
• Refer to the inline fuse ratings provided in the product’s documentation.
• If you need to extend the length of the power cable supplied with your product, ensure you observe the dedicated Power cable extensions advice provided in the product’s documentation.

If you need to extend the length of the power cable supplied with your product, ensure you observe the following advice:

• The power cable for each unit in your system should be run as a separate, single length of 2-wire cable from the unit to the vessel’s battery or distribution panel.
• Ensure that the extension cable is of a sufficient gauge for the supply voltage and the total load of the device and the length of the cable run.

Refer to the following table for typical minimum power cable wire gauges:

Cable length in meters (feet)| Wire gauge in AWG (mm2) for 12 V supply| Wire gauge in AWG (mm2) for 24 V supply
---|---|---
<8 (<25)| 16 (1.31 mm2)| 18 (0.82 mm2)
16 (50)| 14 (2.08 mm2)| 18 (0.82 mm2)
24 (75)| 14 (2.08 mm2)| 16 (1.31 mm2)

32 (>100)| 14 (2.08 mm2)| 16 (1.31 mm2)

Important:
Be aware that some products in your system (such as sonar modules) can create voltage peaks at certain times, which may impact the voltage available to other products during the peaks.
Important:
To ensure power cables (including any extension) are of a sufficient gauge, ensure that there is a continuous minimum voltage of 10.8 V dc at the end of the cable where it enters the product’s power connector, even with a fully flat battery at 11 V dc. (Do not assume that a flat battery is at 0 V dc. Due to the discharge profile and internal chemistry of batteries, the current drops much faster than the voltage. A “fully flat” battery still shows a positive voltage, even if it doesn’t have enough current to power your device.)

10.6 Grounding not required
This product is fully insulated and does NOT require separate grounding.

SYSTEM CHECKS AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Connecting to a Radar scanner over RayNet
Once you’ve made all the relevant power and data connections as described in the Cables and connections section, you can use the Radar application on a compatible display to conduct further initial tests.
For detailed instructions on how to conduct the initial tests, refer to the Radar application chapter of the Operations handbook for your display.
Powering on a Quantum Radar
With the radar scanner in a powered off state, and connected to a compatible multifunction display (MFD):

1. On the MFD, launch the Radar application.
   A message box is displayed indicating that a Radar scanner is off or “not connected”.

2. Select [On] from the onscreen message box.
   The Radar will power up in Standby mode.

3. Once the Radar has powered up, select [Tx] to start the Radar transmitting.
   Radar returns will now be displayed onscreen.

Pairing with a Quantum Radar using Wi-Fi
If your Radar scanner supports a Wi-Fi connection, you can connect to a LightHouse™ MFD which also supports Wi-Fi. During pairing, the Wi-Fi credentials of all MFDs with Wi-Fi switched on are sent to the Quantum Radar. At subsequent power cycles the Quantum Radar will automatically connect to the MFD with the strongest signal.
Note:

1. During initial set up you will have 60 minutes (for Quantum Doppler software versions 2.43 or later) or 10 minutes (for earlier Quantum Doppler software versions) in which to connect the Radar to your MFD. After this time, if no connection is made, the Radar will automatically go to Sleep. If this occurs, power cycle the Radar to bring it out of Sleep mode and establish a connection.

2. Networked MFDs that only have their Wi-Fi enabled after the initial pairing period, will send Wi-Fi credentials to the Radar when their Wi-Fi is switched on.

3. Apply power to your MFD(s).

4. Power on and then enable the Wi-Fi connection to the MFDs which have the strongest signal (typically these will be the MFDs closest to and / or with the clearest line of sight to the Radar), as identified during the p.34 — pre-installation site survey

5. Apply power to your Radar scanner.

6. Select [Quantum Radar] from the settings menu on the MFD:
   i. On a LightHouse™ 4 / LightHouse™ 3 MFD: [Homescreen > Settings > This display (tab) > Pair with Quantum].

7. If prompted, select [OK] to enable your MFD’s Wi-Fi connection.

8. Enter the passcode (e.g. 901589f5) in the [Passcode] field. for details on locating your SSID and Passcode, refer to the following section: p.61 — Retain your Wi-Fi Passcode
   LightHouse™ 4 connection screen: Important:
   **** • Ensure that the SSID and Passcode are entered exactly as shown on the serial number label that was supplied with the Radar.
   • The SSID is always made up of the word “Quantum”, followed by an underscore “_”, followed by the product’s 7 digit serial number, (e.g. Quantum_1234567).

9. Select [Connect].
   The initial connection can take up to 2 minutes to complete. If the connection does not complete within 2 minutes, power cycle the Radar and repeat Steps 4 to 7.

10. Select [OK] from the Successful Connection pop-up.

11. Open a Radar application page.

12. Check that the reported Radar on the power / transmit pop-up is the Radar that you have just paired with.

13. If the correct Radar is reported, select [Tx] (Transmit).

14. If the reported Radar is not the Radar scanner you just paired with, select the correct Radar from the Radar application menu: [Menu > Select Radar:] and then select [Tx] (Transmit).

The Radar image can be displayed on all networked MFDs.
Changing Quantum radar channel
In rare circumstances Radar noise which cannot be eliminated using the Radar app’s [Sensitivity] settings may be fixed by changing the Radar’s internal wired adaptor channel.

Note:

• This feature requires Quantum 2 software version 2.50 (or later) / Quantum software version 2.44 (or later) and LightHouse™ 4 MFD software version 4.3.54 (or later).
• In the first instance you should try adjusting [Sensitivity] settings to eliminate the noise before changing the [Wired adaptor channel].

Follow the steps below to change the channel from your display:

1. Select the [Installation] tab from the Radar app menu: ([Menu > Settings > Installation]).
2. Select the [Wired Adapter Channel] field.
3. Change the channel to a different number.
4. Reboot the Radar scanner for the changes to take effect.

MFD access point connection when connected to Quantum Wi-Fi
Depending on you MFD variant, you may be restricted from connecting your MFD to a Wi-Fi access point, if a Quantum Radar that is connected using Wi-Fi is currently transmitting on the system.
a, c, e, gS Series and Axiom MFDs CANNOT connect to a Wi-Fi access point if there is a transmitting Wi-Fi connected Quantum Radar in the system. To connect these MFDs to a Wi-Fi access point the Quantum Radar must be placed in Standby mode first.
eS Series, Axiom Pro, Axiom Pro-s, Axiom XL, Axiom 2 Pro, Axiom 2 XL MFDs CAN connect to a Wi-Fi access point at the same time as being connected to a transmitting Wi-Fi connected Quantum Radar.
Standby and sleep modes for Wi-Fi connections
The radar scanner has 2 modes which may initially prevent you from successfully pairing the radar to an MFD via Wi-Fi, in the event that the Wi- Fi connection between the 2 devices is lost. These modes are part of the scanner’s normal operation, but it’s important to understand how these modes can potentially impact the pairing process.

• Sleep mode — If the connection to the MFD is lost while the scanner is in Standby mode, the scanner will switch to Sleep mode within 30 minutes.
  When the connection to the MFD is restored, return the scanner to Standby mode using the [Power up Radar] option on the MFD’s Shortcut screen, accessible by momentarily pressing the MFD’s Power button.

• Standby mode — If the connection to the MFD is lost while the scanner is in Transmit mode, the scanner will switch to Standby mode within 5 seconds.
  When the connection to the MFD is restored, return the scanner to Transmit mode using the [Radar: Tx] option on the MFD’s Shortcut screen.

For a full description of all the Radar modes and associated on-screen status symbols, refer to the Radar scanner status symbols topic in the Radar application chapter of your MFD’s Operations handbook.
Retain your Wi-Fi passcode
To connect to the Radar using Wi-Fi (wireless), you will need to know the unit’s SSID, and Passcode.
Both the SSID and Passcode are provided on the serial number label on the underside of the unit, and on spare serial number labels supplied in the box.
You may wish to make a separate note of this information and keep in a secure location. You should also keep the Radar scanner packaging in a safe place for future reference.
The following information is applicable only to Quantum units running software version 1.62 or later, and Quantum Doppler units running software version 2.43 or later:
In the event that you misplace the SSID and Passcode before the initial pairing, you can power on your Quantum unit and determine the SSID by reviewing all available Wi-Fi networks, using a smartphone, tablet or laptop PC. An unpaired Quantum unit will advertise its SSID periodically in a 10-second cycle. This may take up to 3 minutes.
Once you’ve obtained the SSID, the next step is to contact Raymarine® product support and servicing, who can then provide you with the passcode associated with your SSID. For further information on how to contact Raymarine® product support and servicing, refer to the following section: p.74 — Raymarine product support and servicing
Doppler data source requirements
Use of the Doppler Radar features requires the following data sources to be available on your system (e.g. connected to your multifunction display, via SeaTalkng ® or NMEA 0183).
Required data sources

external receiver).
SOG (Speed Over Ground)| GPS or GNSS receiver (MFD internal receiver or external receiver).
HDG / HDT (True Heading)| Compass or Autopilot sensor providing Fastheading data (e.g. Evolution EV-1 /
EV-2).

Note:
A heading data source is not essential for Doppler operation. However it will improve the performance of Doppler mode at slower speeds (< 15 knots), when tide set and leeway are present.
Radar target acquisition data source requirements
Radar target acquisition requires the following data sources to be available on your system (e.g. connected to your multifunction display, via SeaTalkng ® or NMEA 0183).

external receiver).
SOG (Speed Over Ground)| GPS or GNSS receiver (MFD internal receiver or external receiver).
HDG / HDT (True Heading)| Compass or Autopilot sensor providing Fastheading data (e.g. Evolution EV-1 /
EV-2).

Bearing alignment
The Radar bearing alignment ensures that Radar objects appear at the correct bearing relative to your vessel’s bow. You should check the bearing alignment for any new installation.
Checking alignment
Align the bow with a stationary object between 0.25 and 2 NM away.
Reduce the gain to make the target as small as possible on the screen.
Note the position of the object on the Radar screen. If the target is not under the ship’s heading marker (SHM), then bearing alignment adjustment is required.
Adjusting alignment
Adjust the [Bearing alignment] setting until the target object appears under the SHM.
[Bearing alignment] setting can be accessed from the [Installation] tab: [Menu

Installation > Bearing alignment].
Note:
Heading (HDG) is displayed in the Radar application. Please be aware that bearing alignment refers to the relative bearing of targets to the vessel’s bow using visual checks / traditional means.
Heading alignment
For systems with a compass providing heading data, it is important to ensure correct heading alignment.
Correct alignment ensures that the heading data provided by the compass matches the actual heading of the vessel. You should check the heading alignment for any new installation.
Checking alignment
Open the Chart application on the MFD and enable the Radar layer: [Menu > Settings > Layers].
While the vessel is stationary (e.g. tied to a dock), orient the vessel’s bow to a known bearing. Examples include:

• navigational range markers;
• a correctly calibrated fluid-filled compass onboard the vessel;
• other fixed marks from which an accurate heading can be obtained.

Alternatively, another option for checking heading alignment is to align the compass to the Course Over Ground (COG) data provided by a GPS receiver, while your vessel is underway in calm conditions where there is no tide.
Use the Radar and Chart displays to confirm the heading alignment. The on- screen icon representing your vessel should be oriented in exactly the same direction as the known bearing (e.g. navigational range marker).
Adjusting alignment
If the heading alignment is incorrect it may be necessary to re-calibrate the compass.
It is also possible that the compass is affected by sources of magnetic interference (such as marine pontoons, high current carrying cables, or electric motors). In this case it will be necessary to re-linearize the compass to compensate for magnetic interference. In extreme cases it may be necessary to re-locate the compass away from sources of magnetic interference.
For instructions on how to re-calibrate and/or re-linearize the compass, consult the compass manual.

Appendix B Ethernet (IPv4) networking of Raymarine devices with third-

party products

Raymarine uses a custom Ethernet (IPv4) networking configuration. Use the following information to help you understand how Raymarine’s Ethernet (IPv4) implementation interacts with third-party Ethernet (IPv4) devices on your vessel, such as routers, switches, Access Points (APs) etc.
Important:

• Third-party networking products such as routers, switches, and Access Points (APs) may work when connected to Raymarine networks, when configured correctly. However, correct operation is not guaranteed. It’s important to refer to the instructions provided by the relevant third-party device manufacturer, to ensure that your intended use of a third-party device is consistent with the device’s design intent.
• Raymarine does not warrant that Raymarine products are compatible with products manufactured by any person or entity other than Raymarine.
• When using third-party products in your Raymarine electronics network, you should be aware of, and understand, the concepts and limitations described in the following Disclaimer: p.10 — Disclaimer

Overview

• Ethernet (IPv4) networking is a method for interconnecting multiple electronic devices, allowing many devices to function in a network and share data using only a single RJ45 or RayNet connection for each device.
• In order to function correctly, every Ethernet (IPv4) device (whether Raymarine or third-party) must have a unique IP address allocated to it, and it must not conflict with that of any other device.
• IPv4 addresses can be centrally-allocated to devices either automatically, using a method known as DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol), or manually (i.e. allocated a static IP address). The most common method for allocating IPv4 addresses on vessel electronics networks is DHCP. In this configuration, the server device is known as a DHCP server.

• Sonar module (e.g. CP470)
• IP camera (e.g. CAM300)
Raymarine IPv4 DHCP server and self-addressing device| • Multifunction display (MFD / Chartplotter), running LightHouse 3 or LightHouse 4 (e.g. Axiom)
• Marine Router (e.g. YachtSense Link Router)
Third-party IPv4 DHCP client| IP camera
Third-party IPv4 DHCP server| • Router
• Switch
• Access Point (AP)

Note:
The DHCP server maintains a pool of IP addresses and “leases” an address to any DHCP-enabled client, when the client device first powers up and announces its presence on the network. Because the IP addresses are dynamic (leased) rather than static (permanently assigned), addresses no longer in use are automatically returned to the DHCP server’s pool, for subsequent reallocation.
It’s also possible to have multiple DHCP servers issuing addresses on an IPv4 network, but to avoid addressing conflicts, all DHCP servers must be carefully configured to only allocate IP addresses in distinct address ranges.
The subnet mask must also be carefully configured, to ensure that devices can correctly communicate with one another.
Implementation

• Raymarine Ethernet (IPv4) devices expect to use a private Raymarine IPv4 network, which is designed to be internal to the vessel only. Raymarine has carefully chosen a specific IP address range (198.18.0.0/21 ) to ensure that it does not interfere with any external IP address ranges, or other legacy and real-world addressing constraints (including but not limited to marina Wi-Fi networks).
  Note: Raymarine’s IP address range is for local traffic within the vessel’s private Raymarine network only, and does NOT traverse across Raymarine products to external networks, or to the Internet.

• In a Raymarine Ethernet (IPv4) network, IP addresses are self-allocated by certain Raymarine equipment in the following range: 198.18.0.32 to 198.18.3.255 (inclusive). You must avoid placing any devices in this range using manual (static) IP addresses.

• Whether your network includes only Raymarine Ethernet (IP) devices, or a mixture of Raymarine and third-party Ethernet (IPv4) devices, you have 3 options for configuring the Ethernet (IPv4) network and managing the IP addresses for your devices:
  1. Use a Raymarine device as the sole DHCP server to allocate IP addresses automatically to all Raymarine and third-party Ethernet (IPv4) devices on the network. For the purposes of simplicity and reliability, this is the recommended option for most vessels. The following Raymarine devices can act as DHCP servers:
  a. Raymarine multifunction display (MFD) / Chartplotter, running LightHouse 3 or LightHouse 4; or:
  b. Raymarine YachtSense Link Router
  Note: If both a Raymarine MFD and YachtSense Link Router are present in the same network, the YachtSense Link Router MUST be configured as the DHCP server for that network. To facilitate this, the Raymarine MFD’s DHCP setting defaults to Automatic as standard. On power up, if the YachtSense Link is detected in the RayNet system, any MFDs in the network will disable their own DHCP Server, to permit the YachtSense Link to manage the network’s IP addresses.
  Only Raymarine MFDs running LightHouse 4 are compatible with the YachtSense Link Router. Additionally, the most recent versions of the LightHouse 4 and YachtSense Link software must be used.
  2. Use a third-party Ethernet (IPv4) device (such as a router or Access Point) to allocate IP addresses automatically, as a sole DHCP server.
  To do this, refer to the Configuring a third-party router as DHCP server section, below.
  Note: Any Raymarine LightHouse 3 or LightHouse 4 MFDs will still self- allocate their own IP address, even if a third-party DHCP server is being used to allocate IP addresses to other Raymarine or non-Raymarine DHCP client devices (Camera, Radar, Sonar etc.) on the network.
  3. Manually configure static IP addresses for your devices. The address range 198.18.0.32 to 198.18.3.255 (inclusive) is used by Raymarine equipment, and any other third-party equipment on the network should not be set to a static IP address in this range. It should instead be set elsewhere in the 198.18.0.0/21 range.

Adding third-party devices to your Raymarine Ethernet (IP) network

• It is recommended that any third-party products connecting to a Raymarine Ethernet (IPv4) network (e.g., a third-party IP camera) are configured as DHCP clients, so that they automatically get allocated a correct IP address within the range used by the Raymarine IPv4 network. If this is not possible, (for example, in the scenario that your third-party IP Camera requires a static IP address), you should configure the product to have a static IP address within the following range: 198.18.0.1 to 198.18.0.31 (inclusive).
• Any third-party router in your network should be performing IPv4 Network Address Translation (NAT) from the private address to another one on an upstream interface.

Configuring a third-party router as DHCP server
In the scenario that you wish to use a third-party DHCP server to allocate the IP addresses for your vessel’s IPv4 network, use the following information to help you configure the third-party DHCP server to work with Raymarine
Ethernet (IPv4) client devices:

1. Configure the third-party DHCP server / router to use Raymarine’s subnet details, which are as follows:
   a. Set the DHCP server’s IP address to 198.18.0.1
   b. Set the netmask to /21, i.e. 255.255.248.0
   c. Set the DHCP range from 198.18.4.0 to 198.18.7.254 (inclusive). If this is not possible, ensure that the address range is smaller than this (but within the range of 198.18.4.0 to 198.18.7.254 (inclusive)).
   d. The address range 198.18.0.32 to 198.18.3.255 (inclusive) is used by Raymarine equipment, and therefore you must ensure that any other third-party equipment on the network is NOT set to a static IP address in this range.

2. It may be necessary to set the DHCP setting for all of the MFDs on the vessel to [Off]. However, the default option ([Auto]) will likely work fine in many cases. If for any reason the third-party DHCP server starts up after the MFD starts up, the user should  manually set the MFD’s DHCP switch to [Off]. This is because, when the MFD starts up, its DHCP [Auto] feature tries to detect if another DHCP server is already present on the network.

3. In case of failure of the third-party device, the MFDs can be easily configured to be the DHCP server again, by setting the MFD’s DHCP setting back to [Auto].

Adding third-party Wi-Fi Access Points / Wi-Fi routers to your Raymarine Ethernet (IPv4) network

• There is a large volume of multicast IPv4 traffic on the Raymarine Ethernet (IPv4) network. Many consumer Wi-Fi Access Points / Wi-Fi routers simply bridge all multicast traffic from the Ethernet interface to the Wi-Fi interface when there are connected Wi-Fi clients. This will result not only in poor Wi-Fi performance but also in a reduction of usable Wi-Fi spectrum to other Wi-Fi users and vessels in the vicinity. If using a third-party Wi-Fi Access Point or Wi-Fi router, Raymarine recommends that IGMP Snooping is enabled on the third-party device, and additional checks are performed, in order to ensure that your device is not bridging any unexpected multicast traffic to its Wi-Fi interface from the Raymarine Ethernet (IPv4) network.
• Raymarine’s YachtSense Link Router is pre-configured with IGMP Snooping enabled, and therefore does not bridge internal multicast traffic on the wired network to the Wi-Fi network. No additional configuration is required in this respect.
