ELECTRIC CONNECTIONS
The chain counter meets standard EMC (electromagnetic compatibility). In any case correct installation is fundamental in
order not to affect its performance or interfere with operation of instruments found near it.
For this reason the chain counter must be at least:
• 1 m away from cables that transmit radio signals (except for SSB radio transmitters).
• 2 m away from cables for SSB radio transmitter signals.
Follow the safety precautions and directions given below when making the electrical circuit of the chain counter:
• Turn on power to the chain counter only after having effected and verified that all the electric connections are correct.
• Install a switch to turn on and shut off the chain counter; make sure the switch is in a position that can be easily
reached so that, in the event of an emergency, the chain counter can be quickly shut off.
• Install a 4A fast fuse in the chain counter's power supply line.
• The cross-section of the solenoid/reversing solenoid unit and chain counter's power supply cables should be adequate-
ly sized according to the length of the cables.
• Do not run the chain counter on power delivered from the motors' batteries group.
• The maximum length of the CAN cords should not exceed 100 metres.
• The data cable should not be more than 100 meters long.
• The boat's electrical system should allow other switches to operate the windlass.
