2 Installation

Location of the unitThe RI70 and RI80 should be mounted with special regard to the unit’s environmental protection, temperature range and cable length. Refer to the Specifications chapter.

Avoid mounting the unit where it is easily exposed to sunlight, as this may unintendedly overheat the unit.

For RI70 a weather cover is included and the cover should be put on when the unit is not in use.

Panel mounting

The mounting surface must be flat and even to within 0.5 mm.

Drill 4 mounting holes and make a panel cut-out 1 according to the drilling template included in the package

Use the supplied self tapping screws to secure the 2 unit to the panel

Apply the front corners3

Do not over-tighten the screws!

Securing the cablesUse the enclosed tie wrap to secure the cables to the instrument.

Interconnecting instrumentsInterconnect a series of instruments by using a SimNet power cable with termination and T-joiners as illustrated below.

If the instruments are connected to other SimNet compatible products, refer to the manual for those products.

Use only 12V as SimNet supply!

3 Operation

Turning the RI70/RI80 onThe RI70/RI80 rudder indicators have no power key, and will be running as long as power is applied.

When power is applied to the system the instrument will indicate the rudder angle.

After approximately 3 seconds the instrument is operative.

Before the instruments is ready to operate the default settings should be checked and changed if other values are preferred. Refer to the Changing the default settings chapter.

Using the keysThe instrument is operated by the 2 keys on the front. They are used to switch between display modes, to set values and to adjust the illumination as illustrated in the table on the next page.

Key presses or key combinations not indicated in the table have no effect.

Refer also to Operation flow chart.

Level 8 and 9 are for bright daylight.

The instrument will return to normal operation 1 second after the last key press.

Range: 0 - 9 Default value: 2

If several instruments are connected via SimNet, the instruments can be grouped in different light banks. Changing the backlight settings on one of the instruments will affect all instruments in the group. Refer to Light bank selection in Changing the default settings chapter.

Error Alarm

In the event the error indicator is lit, the instrument is not operable and service/repair is required.

Operation | 15

MaintenanceThe IS70/IS80 instruments are “repair by replacement” units, and the operator is therefore required to perform only a very limited amount of preventive maintenance.

If the unit requires any form of cleaning, use fresh water and a mild soap solution (not a detergent). It is important to avoid using chemical cleaners and hydrocarbons such as diesel, petrol etc.

If a weather cover is available this should be put on when the unit is not in use.

GeneralThe factory default settings may all be changed in the User setup, accessed as shown in the illustration.

Refer also to the Operation flow chart in the Basic Operation chapter.

Light bank selectionThe light bank function is used to globally control light settings for a group of units that are connected via the SimNet network.

By assigning several units to the same group, the light adjustment on one unit will be effective on the rest of the members in the same group.
