This manual should be used in conjunction with the installation manual provided with your multi-
function display. It is written for professional marine technicians, installation technicians and service technicians. Dealers may use information contained in this document. HALO 2000 SERIES and HALO 3000 SERIES radars combine the best characteristics of traditional pulse and FMCW broadband radar systems. Pulse compression technology provides an unprecedented mix of long and short detection range, high target definition, and minimal clutter. Solid state technology means minimal warm-up time and maximum ocean-going reliability. This latest generation of HALO open array radars incorporate updated hardware and mechanical design improvements that deliver increased power, improved long-range target detection performance and more system reliability. HALO 2000 SERIES and HALO 3000 SERIES radar systems consist of a pedestal, antenna, RI-50 radar interface module and connection cables. A supplied Ethernet network cable connects the RI-
50 radar interface module to the navigation Ethernet network. Notes:
HALO 2000 SERIES and HALO 3000 SERIES radar systems are available with antennas in three sizes: 3 ft, 4 ft and 6 ft. At the time of release, HALO 2000 SERIES and HALO 3000 SERIES radars work with Simrad GO XSR, GO XSE (9/12), NSS evo3, NSS evo3S, NSO evo3, NSO evo3S and NSO evo3S MPU systems. They also work with Simrad R2009 and R3016 radar control units. Warnings Use the radar at your own risk. Your radar is designed as a navigation aid. Always compare the navigation information received from your radar with data from other navigation aids and sources. When a conflict arises between the navigation data from your radar and data from other navigation aids, make sure you resolve the conflict before proceeding with navigation. A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN NAVIGATION INFORMATION. International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea mandate that when radar is on a vessel, the radar must be used at all times, regardless of weather conditions or visibility. Numerous court decisions have ruled that the radar must be used, and the radar operator must know all operational aspects of radar performance. Otherwise they will face a greater risk of liability if an accident occurs. High current, stored and microwave energy hazard. Technicians must exercise extreme care when working with the unit. ALWAYS disconnect from the power source before removing the cover. Some capacitors may take several minutes to discharge, even after switching off the radar. Before touching any high voltage components, ground them with a clip lead. The radars blue 4-level static accent pedestal lighting may not be approved for use in your boating location. Please check your local boating regulations before turning the blue accent lights ON. The microwave energy radiated by a radar antenna is harmful to humans, especially the eyes. NEVER look directly into an open waveguide or into the path of radiation from an enclosed antenna. Disconnect from the power source or use the service mode switch on the back of the pedestal whenever you need to work on the antenna or other equipment in the beam of the radar.

Warning: Before starting the installation or any maintenance on a HALO 2000 SERIES or HALO 3000 SERIES radar, make sure the service mode switch at the back of the pedestal is set to 0 (power supply disabled). There is a transmit interlock that prevents radar transmissions if the antenna is not rotating. However, a high voltage remains for a period of time after the system is turned off. If you are not familiar with this type of electronics, consult a trained service or installation technician before trying to service any part of the equipment. Installation includes:
hardware mounting electrical wiring configuring the display or network system to work with the radar adjusting the radar for proper performance. The radars ability to detect targets depends greatly on its location. The ideal location is high above the vessels keel line where there are no obstacles. A higher installation location improves the radars ranging distance, but it also increases the range around the vessel where targets cannot be detected and increases sea clutter pick up. When you are deciding on the location, consider the following:
The length of the 20 m (66 ft) interconnection cable supplied with the radar is usually sufficient. A longer 30 m (98 ft) cable is available. 30 m (98 ft) is the longest the cable that can be used. If the roof of the wheelhouse is the highest existing location, consider installing a radar mast or tower on which you can mount the radar. If you install the radar on the mast, position it on the forward side so there is a clear view to the front of the vessel. It is preferable to install the antenna parallel to the line of the keel. What not to do Do not install the radar too high, where its weight may compromise the stability of the vessel and degrade the radar picture over short ranges. Do not install the radar close to lamps or exhaust outlets. Heat, soot, and smoke emissions may degrade radar performance or cause a breakdown. Do not install the radar where a large obstruction (such as an exhaust stack) is at the same level as the beam. The obstruction is likely to generate false echoes and/or shadow zones. If there is no alternative location, use the radars sector blanking setting on your multi-function display. Do not install the radar close to the antennas of other equipment, such as direction finders, VHF antennas and GPS equipment, as it may cause interference. Do not install the radar where may be subjected to strong vibrations that could degrade its performance. Do not install the radar close to halyards or flags because the wind could wrap these around the antenna and jam it. PAGE | 12 Compass safe distance Do not install your HALO radar or RI-50 inside of the recommended safe distances of navigational instruments like the magnetic compass and chronometer.

function display. Power boat installations If possible, make sure the mounting location gives your radar a clear view all around the vessel. PAGE | 13 If you install your HALO radar on a power boat with a steep planing angle, it is recommended you tilt the radar angle down at the front. Note: Optional 4 base wedges are available from third-party suppliers. Considerations for roof mounting When deciding a suitable mounting location for your HALO radar, be aware that the vertical radar beam extends to 25 either side of horizontal, with 50% of the emitted energy projecting in a beam 12.5 either side of horizontal. If the radar beam cannot clear the roof line, this decreases the performance of the radar. Depending on the size of the hard top of the vessel, we recommend you elevate the antenna to ensure the radar beams clear the roof line. Possible performance loss If you mount your HALO radar directly on to a large hard top, the radars performance could suffer as the emitted energy is either reflected or absorbed by the hard top. 5 2 1 5
. 2 1 25% of energy 50% of energy y g r e n 5 % o f e 2 PAGE | 14 Good performance Raising the radar off the hard top allows most of the radar beam to clear the hard top. Best performance For best performance, the radar should be positioned to allow the full beam to clear the superstructure of the vessel. Note: If the mounting surface is made of metal, you must elevate the radar so the beam has complete clearance, otherwise its performance will be severely impaired. To calculate the antenna height for best performance, first measure the distance (A) from the installation location of the radar to the furthest forward corner of your vessels hard top. A A A PAGE | 15 For every increase of 200 mm (7.9) of hard top distance over 1.8 m (6.0), increase the height of the antenna by 46 mm (1.8). 2 5 1.8 m (6 ft) 2.0 m (6.5 ft) 2.2 m (7.2 ft) 2.4 m (7.8 ft) 2.6 m (8.5 ft) 2.8 m (9.1 ft) 3.0 m (9.8 ft)

The mounting position should be easily accessible. Always mount the RI-50 vertically, with the cable entry points facing downwards. This helps with cooling and helps prevent any water from entering the cable grommets. Ensure there is enough unobstructed space above and below the RI-50 to ensure it cools adequately and the ambient temperature does not exceed 55C (131F). If overheating is a concern, consider additional ventilation, such as a vent or extraction fan. Warning: Inadequate ventilation and subsequent overheating of the unit may cause unreliable operation and reduced service life. The RI-50 must be located where it can easily connect to the vessels ground connection, the pedestal interconnection cable and the power cable. Use fasteners suited to the mounting surface material. If you are using the supplied self-tapping screws with a soft material like plywood, use a 2.3 mm to 2.8 mm (3/32) drill bit. For hard materials like GRP, acrylic and hardwoods, use a 2.9 mm (7/64) drill bit. If the material is too thin for the self-
tapping screws, reinforce it or use machine screws, nuts and washers. Use only 304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners. Mark the screw locations using RI-50 box as a template, and drill pilot holes. PAGE | 17 Run the interconnection cable The interconnection cable is 10.5 mm (0.4) in diameter. The 14-pin connector end of the cable connects to the pedestal. The RJ45 connector connects to the RI-50 radar interface module. 1 Drill a 14 mm hole to pass the RJ45 connector from the pedestal to the RI-50, or a 24 mm (0.95) hole to pass the 14-pin connector from the RI-50 to the pedestal. 2 To protect the connectors, especially the RJ45 connector, when pulling the cable through the vessel, connect a mouse line to the outer jacket of the interconnection cable so the strain of pulling is transferred to the strong outer jacket. 3 If there is enough clearance, use a small cable tie to secure the mouse line to the outer jacket. 4 Tape the wires and the RJ45 connector to the mouse line so they do not get caught and bend backwards. C A B B A B C Mouse line Electrical tape Cable tie 5 Carefully pull the interconnection cable through the vessel so it runs between the RI-50 radar interface module and your chosen pedestal location. Install the pedestal Warning: Leave the waveguide protection cap on the pedestal while you mount it to your vessel. You should only remove the cap just before you fit the antenna to the pedestal. Bolts and washers The eight hex head bolts supplied are suitable for surfaces up to 25 mm (1) in thickness. Use the 4 x M12 x 35 mm (1.4) for a surface thickness from 5 mm (0.2) up to 13 mm (0.5). Use the 4 x M12 x 50 mm (2.0) for a surface thickness from 13 mm (0.5) up to 25 mm (1). If using longer bolts, ensure they are marine-grade stainless steel and allow for a minimum of 12 mm (0.3) and maximum of 20 mm (0.7) of thread engagement in base of pedestal. Use a flat washer and a spring washer for each bolt. Important: Apply a light coating of the supplied Tef-Gel or other suitable nickel- or PTFE-based lubricant to the mounting bolts to prevent galling and corrosion. PAGE | 18 If you are installing the pedestal onto a steel surface, also use the supplied plastic isolating washers. Surface mount: rear cable connection 1 Place the mounting template in your desired installation location, observing the correct orientation. Note: You can compensate for any minor deviations in orientation later by using the radars bearing alignment setting on your multi-function display. 2 Check the location has enough room for the antenna to rotate. 3 Tape the template securely in place. PAGE | 19 4 Drill pilot holes, then use a 13 mm (0.5) drill bit to drill the four holes where shown on the mounting template. 5 Remove the mounting template . 6 Apply the supplied Tef-Gel anti-corrosion gel to the four feet of the pedestal. 7 Lift the pedestal using the supplied lifting strap. Warning: Do not lift the pedestal with the antenna attached. 8 Lower the pedestal carefully so its mounting holes align with the drilled holes in the vessel. 9 Place a flat washer and spring washer onto each bolt. Note: If you are installing the pedestal onto a steel surface, also use the supplied plastic isolating washers. 10 Apply the Tef-Gel anti-corrosion gel to the threads of each bolt. PAGE | 20 11 Insert the bolts through the drilled holes and into the pedestals threaded mounting holes. Tighten the bolts securely.

12 -24 V DC Ground the RI-50 You can ground the RI-50 using the ground terminal on the underside of the case. The chassis ground is DC isolated from power (ve) to eliminate the risk of galvanic corrosion. It is recommended that the RI-50 ground is connected to the vessels bonded ground or a non-
bonded RF ground at the closest possible location, using 12 AWG wire (or thicker). PAGE | 30 Alternatively, you can ground the RI-50 using the CASE / SHIP GND spade terminal on the circuit board. RI-50 Always ON 12/24V 12/24V 20A CASE / SHIP GND POWER CONTROLLED BY AUX REMOTE 24V ONLY SHIELD Activate remote power control The RI-50 has an optional remote power control mode that enables a compatible multi-function display or ignition switch to control the power state of the radar. When the display or switch is turned on, the radar will turn on. To use the remote power control function:
1 Move the power control switch from Always ON (indicated by ON on the switch itself) to POWER CONTROLLED BY AUX REMOTE (indicated by 1 on the switch). 2 Apply +V DC (5 V DC - 32 V DC) from a compatible multi-function display or ignition switch to the Remote input of the AUX connector. On a compatible multi-function display, this is the yellow wire in the power cable. If you are using a multi-function display to power on the radar, set it to master (refer to the power control function in the displays user manual for instructions). 3 Notes:
If the power control switch is moved back to Always ON, the power wire in the AUX Remote port is ignored. If the radar is turned off via remote power control while transmitting, the radar will auto park the antenna before shutting down. There must be a common battery -ve for all devices on the power control bus.

This park angle is set in the radars software on your multi-function display. In addition, there is a park angle retention feature which is a very low current electromagnetic brake that provides resistance for the antenna to maintain a parked angle against wind and movement when the radar is not powered. The park brake requires a continuous low current DC supply (10-32 V DC). This draws less than 100uA. To activate the antenna brake park function, connect a signal wire from the positive side of the power supply to the Park input on the AUX connector.

The GPS antenna must be mounted in a position that provides a clear view of the sky. A quality 10 Hz compass such as the Precision 9 is suitable for heading, however for the very best performance, a GPS compass such as Simrad HS75 or HS80A should be considered. The connected multi-function display sends NMEA 2000 position and heading data to the radar via the Ethernet connection. For radar chart overlay, an integrated GPS/compass sensor such as the Simrad GS25 is suitable, however the compass is not suitable for VelocityTrack and ZoneTrack as it does not have 10 Hz heading output.

Status Green Normal operation Green/orange fast blinking Wrong or no radar connected Orange Pending shutdown Red Radar is off The RI-50 detected voltage on its output before it turned on. If the radar was only off for a short time, it is normal for there to be residual voltage. However, it can also indicate the output switch in the RI-50 has been damaged and needs repair. This will not stop the radar from working, but does mean the only remaining fault protection in the RI-50 is the 40A input fuse. High input voltage, > 34V. Check your input power source. Input voltages > 36.5V can damage the RI-50. Output voltage too high, > 54V. There is a risk of damage to the connected pedestal. Get the RI-50 checked. Average input current too high, > 20A. The RI-50 will retry up to 5 times before shutting down. Can be caused by low input voltage and/or excessive load from the pedestal. Average output current too high, > 8A. The RI-50 will retry up to 5 times before shutting down. Caused by excessive load from the pedestal. Typically indicates a short circuit on the pedestal cable. The output current was
> 10A. The RI-50 will retry up to 5 times before shutting down. Check the pedestal interconnection cable for damage. Over temperature, > 90C (194F). The RI-50 will re-start after cooling down. The RI-50 should be mounted as shown in the Hardware mounting section of this manual so that air can flow over the heatsink. Low input voltage and heavy pedestal load will increase heating. The wrong pedestal type has been connected. Pedestals designed to work with RI-12 interface modules (older) will not work with RI-50s and could be damaged. A software upgrade is required. Return the RI-50 for service. Output voltage > 45V. The radar will operate regardless of any fault or warning indication. Output voltage 16V to 45V. Check the pedestal is connected and it is a compatible model. Output voltage 16V to 45V. Typically the radar is given 30 seconds to prepare for shutdown. Output voltage <16V. Typically the output is off. PAGE | 37 Ethernet Green blink Successful communication with a multi-function display Normal operation. The LED activity increases with increasing Ethernet traffic. Off Communication not established Ethernet cable disconnected or faulty Ethernet cable to display. Fuse In the rare event that the non-replaceable fuse blows on your RI-50 circuit board, the BLOWN FUSE LED will light up while power is supplied to the RI-50. This indicates an internal fault and you will need to replace your RI-50 unit. Note: A blown fuse indicates an internal fault with your RI-50. It does not indicate a fault with the external wiring to the RI-50 or a fault with the radar pedestal. PAGE | 38 SETUP AND CONFIGURATION Make the following settings before use. Refer to the documentation supplied with your display unit to locate and adjust the settings. Radar source In a system with more than one radar, the device to configure is selected from here. Note: Radars that support dual radar mode are represented twice in the source list, with an A and a B suffix. Radar status Used to view information about your radar, such as the software version, serial number and operating hours. Antenna setup X-axis and Y-axis. Used to set the approximate position of the antenna on the vessel. This enables your vessel icon to be positioned correctly on the PPI. Height. Used to set the height of the antenna above the water line. Ensure the antenna height is set correctly, as it affects the sea clutter function. Do not set the height to zero. Span. Used to select the length of your antenna. Adjust bearing alignment Used to compensate for any slight misalignment of the pedestal during installation and to make sure targets and bearings taken with the electronic bearing line display accurately. The adjustment is made by aligning the heading marker on the screen with the center line of the vessel. Sidelobe suppression Used to increase the suppression if there are false targets appearing as arcs radiating from either side of an actual target (typically large structures such as steel hulled ships, container wharves and large buildings). By default this control is set to Auto, and normally should not need to be adjusted. Note: This setting should only be adjusted by experienced radar users. Target loss in harbor environments can occur if it is not adjusted correctly. Sector blanking Used to stop the radar transmitting in the direction of structures that could cause unwanted reflections or interference to appear on the radar image. Four sectors can be set, the bearing of which is measured from the bow of the vessel to the center line of the sector. Adjust open array park angle Used to set the resting position of the antenna relative to the heading line of the radar when the radar is set to standby. The antenna will stop rotating at the desired offset. Optionally, the antenna can be held in place against wind by connecting the antenna park wire. Note: When entering standby, the antenna may rotate multiple times before coming to rest. HALO light Used to control the brightness level of the blue LED accent light on the pedestal. There are four brightness levels. The level can only be adjusted when the radar is in standby mode. Warning: The pedestals blue accent lighting may not be approved for use in your boating location. Check your local boating regulations before turning the blue accent light on. Reset radar to factory defaults Used to reset the radars control settings (not installation settings) to their factory defaults.

This manual should be used in conjunction with the installation manual provided with your multi-
function display. It is written for professional marine technicians, installation technicians and service technicians. Dealers may use information contained in this document. HALO 2000 Series and HALO 3000 Series radars combine the best characteristics of traditional pulse and FMCW broadband radar systems. Pulse compression technology provides an unprecedented mix of long and short detection range, high target definition, and minimal clutter. Solid state technology means minimal warm-up time and maximum ocean-going reliability. This latest generation of HALO open array radars incorporate updated hardware and mechanical design improvements that deliver increased power, improved long-range target detection performance and more system reliability. HALO 2000 Series and HALO 3000 Series radar systems consist of a pedestal, antenna, RI-50 radar interface module and connection cables. A supplied Ethernet network cable connects the RI-50 radar interface module to the navigation Ethernet network. Notes:
HALO 2000 Series and HALO 3000 Series radar systems are available with antennas in three sizes: 3 ft, 4 ft and 6 ft. At the time of release, HALO 2000 Series and HALO 3000 Series radars work with Simrad GO XSR, GO XSE (9/12), NSS evo3, NSS evo3S, NSO evo3, NSO evo3S and NSO evo3S MPU systems. They also work with Simrad R2009 and R3016 radar control units. Warnings Use the radar at your own risk. Your radar is designed as a navigation aid. Always compare the navigation information received from your radar with data from other navigation aids and sources. When a conflict arises between the navigation data from your radar and data from other navigation aids, make sure you resolve the conflict before proceeding with navigation. A CAREFUL NAVIGATOR NEVER RELIES ON ONLY ONE METHOD TO OBTAIN NAVIGATION INFORMATION. International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea mandate that when radar is on a vessel, the radar must be used at all times, regardless of weather conditions or visibility. Numerous court decisions have ruled that the radar must be used, and the radar operator must know all operational aspects of radar performance. Otherwise they will face a greater risk of liability if an accident occurs. High current, stored and microwave energy hazard. Technicians must exercise extreme care when working with the unit. ALWAYS disconnect from the power source before removing the cover. Some capacitors may take several minutes to discharge, even after switching off the radar. Before touching any high voltage components, ground them with a clip lead. The radars blue 4-level static accent pedestal lighting may not be approved for use in your boating location. Please check your local boating regulations before turning the blue accent lights ON. The microwave energy radiated by a radar antenna is harmful to humans, especially the eyes. NEVER look directly into an open waveguide or into the path of radiation from an enclosed antenna. Disconnect from the power source or use the service mode switch on the back of the pedestal whenever you need to work on the antenna or other equipment in the beam of the radar.

Warning: Before starting the installation or any maintenance on a HALO 2000 Series or HALO 3000 Series radar, make sure the service mode switch at the back of the pedestal is set to 0 (power supply disabled). There is a transmit interlock that prevents radar transmissions if the antenna is not rotating. However, a high voltage remains for a period of time after the system is turned off. If you are not familiar with this type of electronics, consult a trained service or installation technician before trying to service any part of the equipment. Installation includes:
hardware mounting electrical wiring configuring the display or network system to work with the radar adjusting the radar for proper performance. The radars ability to detect targets depends greatly on its location. The ideal location is high above the vessels keel line where there are no obstacles. A higher installation location improves the radars ranging distance, but it also increases the range around the vessel where targets cannot be detected and increases sea clutter pick up. When you are deciding on the location, consider the following:
The length of the 20 m (66 ft) interconnection cable supplied with the radar is usually sufficient. A longer 30 m (98 ft) cable is available. 30 m (98 ft) is the longest the cable that can be used. If the roof of the wheelhouse is the highest existing location, consider installing a radar mast or tower on which you can mount the radar. If you install the radar on the mast, position it on the forward side so there is a clear view to the front of the vessel. It is preferable to install the antenna parallel to the line of the keel. What not to do Do not install the radar too high, where its weight may compromise the stability of the vessel and degrade the radar picture over short ranges. Do not install the radar close to lamps or exhaust outlets. Heat, soot, and smoke emissions may degrade radar performance or cause a breakdown. Do not install the radar where a large obstruction (such as an exhaust stack) is at the same level as the beam. The obstruction is likely to generate false echoes and/or shadow zones. If there is no alternative location, use the radars sector blanking setting on your multi-function display. Do not install the radar close to the antennas of other equipment, such as direction finders, VHF antennas and GPS equipment, as it may cause interference. Do not install the radar where may be subjected to strong vibrations that could degrade its performance. Do not install the radar close to halyards or flags because the wind could wrap these around the antenna and jam it. PAGE | 12 Compass safe distance Do not install your HALO radar inside of the recommended safe distances of any navigation instruments such as the magnetic compass and chronometer. The minimum distance to install the pedestal near the vessels compass is STD 1.0 m (3.3 ft), Steer 0.5 m (1.6 ft). W N S STD 1.0 m (3.3 ft) Steer 0.5 m (1.6 ft) E The minimum distance to install the RI-50 near the vessels compass is STD 1.0 m (3.3 ft). Multi-radar installations Do not install your HALO 2000 Series or HALO 3000 Series radar on the same horizontal beam plane as any other radar. Separate them vertically by at least 2 m (6.6 ft). 2 m (6.6 ft) 1 2 2 m (6.6 ft) 1 3 1 2 3 HALO 2000 Series or HALO 3000 Series radar Conventional pulse radar or another HALO 2000 Series or HALO 3000 Series radar HALO 20, 20+ or 24 dome radar Note: Possible interference can be reduced using the radars sector blanking setting on your multi-
function display. Power boat installations If possible, make sure the mounting location gives your radar a clear view all around the vessel. PAGE | 13 If you install your HALO radar on a power boat with a steep planing angle, it is recommended you tilt the radar angle down at the front. Note: Optional 4 base wedges are available from third-party suppliers. Considerations for roof mounting When deciding a suitable mounting location for your HALO radar, be aware that the vertical radar beam extends to 25 either side of horizontal, with 50% of the emitted energy projecting in a beam 12.5 either side of horizontal. If the radar beam cannot clear the roof line, this decreases the performance of the radar. Depending on the size of the hard top of the vessel, we recommend you elevate the antenna to ensure the radar beams clear the roof line. Possible performance loss If you mount your HALO radar directly on to a large hard top, the radars performance could suffer as the emitted energy is either reflected or absorbed by the hard top. 5 2 1 5

Best performance For best performance, the radar should be positioned to allow the full beam to clear the superstructure of the vessel. Note: If the mounting surface is made of metal, you must elevate the radar so the beam has complete clearance, otherwise its performance will be severely impaired. To calculate the antenna height for best performance, first measure the distance (A) from the installation location of the radar to the furthest forward corner of your vessels hard top. A A A PAGE | 15 For every increase of 200 mm (7.9) of hard top distance over 1.8 m (6.0), increase the height of the antenna by 46 mm (1.8). 2 5 1.8 m (6 ft) 2.0 m (6.5 ft) 2.2 m (7.2 ft) 2.4 m (7.8 ft) 2.6 m (8.5 ft) 2.8 m (9.1 ft) 3.0 m (9.8 ft)

The mounting position should be easily accessible. Always mount the RI-50 vertically, with the cable entry points facing downwards. This helps with cooling and helps prevent any water from entering the cable grommets. Ensure there is enough unobstructed space above and below the RI-50 to ensure it cools adequately and the ambient temperature does not exceed 55C (131F). If overheating is a concern, consider additional ventilation, such as a vent or extraction fan. Warning: Inadequate ventilation and subsequent overheating of the unit may cause unreliable operation and reduced service life. The RI-50 must be located where it can easily connect to the vessels ground connection, the pedestal interconnection cable and the power cable. Use fasteners suited to the mounting surface material. If you are using the supplied self-tapping screws with a soft material like plywood, use a 2.3 mm to 2.8 mm (3/32) drill bit. For hard materials like GRP, acrylic and hardwoods, use a 2.9 mm (7/64) drill bit. If the material is too thin for the self-
tapping screws, reinforce it or use machine screws, nuts and washers. Use only 304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners. Mark the screw locations using RI-50 box as a template, and drill pilot holes. PAGE | 17 Run the interconnection cable The interconnection cable is 10.5 mm (0.4) in diameter. The 14-pin connector end of the cable connects to the pedestal. The RJ45 connector connects to the RI-50 radar interface module. 1 Drill a 14 mm hole to pass the RJ45 connector from the pedestal to the RI-50, or a 24 mm (0.95) hole to pass the 14-pin connector from the RI-50 to the pedestal. 2 To protect the connectors, especially the RJ45 connector, when pulling the cable through the vessel, connect a mouse line to the outer jacket of the interconnection cable so the strain of pulling is transferred to the strong outer jacket. 3 If there is enough clearance, use a small cable tie to secure the mouse line to the outer jacket. 4 Tape the wires and the RJ45 connector to the mouse line so they do not get caught and bend backwards. C A B B A B C Mouse line Electrical tape Cable tie 5 Carefully pull the interconnection cable through the vessel so it runs between the RI-50 radar interface module and your chosen pedestal location. Install the pedestal Warning: Leave the waveguide protection cap on the pedestal while you mount it to your vessel. You should only remove the cap just before you fit the antenna to the pedestal. Bolts and washers The eight hex head bolts supplied are suitable for surfaces up to 25 mm (1) in thickness. Use the 4 x M12 x 35 mm (1.4) for a surface thickness from 5 mm (0.2) up to 13 mm (0.5). Use the 4 x M12 x 50 mm (2.0) for a surface thickness from 13 mm (0.5) up to 25 mm (1). If using longer bolts, ensure they are marine-grade stainless steel and allow for a minimum of 12 mm (0.3) and maximum of 20 mm (0.7) of thread engagement in base of pedestal. Use a flat washer and a spring washer for each bolt. Important: Apply a light coating of the supplied Tef-Gel or other suitable nickel- or PTFE-based lubricant to the mounting bolts to prevent galling and corrosion. PAGE | 18 If you are installing the pedestal onto a steel surface, also use the supplied plastic isolating washers. Surface mount: rear cable connection 1 Place the mounting template in your desired installation location, observing the correct orientation. Note: You can compensate for any minor deviations in orientation later by using the radars bearing alignment setting on your multi-function display. 2 Check the location has enough room for the antenna to rotate. 3 Tape the template securely in place. PAGE | 19 4 Drill pilot holes, then use a 13 mm (0.5) drill bit to drill the four holes where shown on the mounting template. 5 Remove the mounting template . 6 Apply the supplied Tef-Gel anti-corrosion gel to the four feet of the pedestal. 7 Lift the pedestal using the supplied lifting strap.

The radar needs a 12 or 24 V DC supply capable of delivering 20 A for 12 V system and 10 A for 24 V system. The RI-50 is protected against reverse polarity, overvoltage and undervoltage. The RI-50 must be connected via a dedicated fuse/circuit breaker rated at 25 A for 12 V DC systems or 15 A for 24 V DC systems. The fuse/circuit breaker should be labeled accordingly. The further away the power supply, the thicker the cable you need. Voltage Cable length 0-2 m

12 -24 V DC Ground the RI-50 You can ground the RI-50 using the ground terminal on the underside of the case. The chassis ground is DC isolated from power (ve) to eliminate the risk of galvanic corrosion. It is recommended that the RI-50 ground is connected to the vessels bonded ground or a non-
bonded RF ground at the closest possible location, using 12 AWG wire (or thicker). PAGE | 30 Alternatively, you can ground the RI-50 using the CASE / SHIP GND spade terminal on the circuit board. RI-50 Always ON 12/24V 12/24V 20A CASE / SHIP GND POWER CONTROLLED BY AUX REMOTE 24V ONLY SHIELD Activate remote power control The RI-50 has an optional remote power control mode that enables a compatible multi-function display or ignition switch to control the power state of the radar. When the display or switch is turned on, the radar will turn on. To use the remote power control function:
1 Move the power control switch from Always ON (indicated by ON on the switch itself) to POWER CONTROLLED BY AUX REMOTE (indicated by 1 on the switch). 2 Apply +V DC (5 V DC - 32 V DC) from a compatible multi-function display or ignition switch to the Remote input of the AUX connector. On a compatible multi-function display, this is the yellow wire in the power cable. If you are using a multi-function display to power on the radar, set it to master (refer to the power control function in the displays user manual for instructions). 3 Notes:
If the power control switch is moved back to Always ON, the power wire in the AUX Remote port is ignored. If the radar is turned off via remote power control while transmitting, the radar will auto park the antenna before shutting down. There must be a common battery -ve for all devices on the power control bus.

This park angle is set in the radars software on your multi-function display. In addition, there is a park angle retention feature which is a very low current electromagnetic brake that provides resistance for the antenna to maintain a parked angle against wind and movement when the radar is not powered. The park brake requires a continuous low current DC supply (10-32 V DC). This draws less than 100uA. To activate the antenna brake park function, connect a signal wire from the positive side of the power supply to the Park input on the AUX connector.

The GPS antenna must be mounted in a position that provides a clear view of the sky. A quality 10 Hz compass such as the Precision 9 is suitable for heading, however for the very best performance, a GPS compass such as Simrad HS75 or HS80A should be considered. The connected multi-function display sends NMEA 2000 position and heading data to the radar via the Ethernet connection. For radar chart overlay, an integrated GPS/compass sensor such as the Simrad GS25 is suitable, however the compass is not suitable for VelocityTrack and ZoneTrack as it does not have 10 Hz heading output.

Status Green Normal operation Green/orange fast blinking Wrong or no radar connected Orange Pending shutdown Red Radar is off The RI-50 detected voltage on its output before it turned on. If the radar was only off for a short time, it is normal for there to be residual voltage. However, it can also indicate the output switch in the RI-50 has been damaged and needs repair. This will not stop the radar from working, but does mean the only remaining fault protection in the RI-50 is the 40A input fuse. High input voltage, > 34V. Check your input power source. Input voltages > 36.5V can damage the RI-50. Output voltage too high, > 54V. There is a risk of damage to the connected pedestal. Get the RI-50 checked. Average input current too high, > 20A. The RI-50 will retry up to 5 times before shutting down. Can be caused by low input voltage and/or excessive load from the pedestal. Average output current too high, > 8A. The RI-50 will retry up to 5 times before shutting down. Caused by excessive load from the pedestal. Typically indicates a short circuit on the pedestal cable. The output current was
> 10A. The RI-50 will retry up to 5 times before shutting down. Check the pedestal interconnection cable for damage. Over temperature, > 90C (194F). The RI-50 will re-start after cooling down. The RI-50 should be mounted as shown in the Hardware mounting section of this manual so that air can flow over the heatsink. Low input voltage and heavy pedestal load will increase heating. The wrong pedestal type has been connected. Pedestals designed to work with RI-12 interface modules (older) will not work with RI-50s and could be damaged. A software upgrade is required. Return the RI-50 for service. Output voltage > 45V. The radar will operate regardless of any fault or warning indication. Output voltage 16V to 45V. Check the pedestal is connected and it is a compatible model. Output voltage 16V to 45V. Typically the radar is given 30 seconds to prepare for shutdown. Output voltage <16V. Typically the output is off. PAGE | 37 Ethernet Green blink Successful communication with a multi-function display Normal operation. The LED activity increases with increasing Ethernet traffic. Off Communication not established Ethernet cable disconnected or faulty Ethernet cable to display. Fuse In the rare event that the non-replaceable fuse blows on your RI-50 circuit board, the BLOWN FUSE LED will light up while power is supplied to the RI-50. This indicates an internal fault and you will need to replace your RI-50 unit. Note: A blown fuse indicates an internal fault with your RI-50. It does not indicate a fault with the external wiring to the RI-50 or a fault with the radar pedestal. PAGE | 38 SETUP AND CONFIGURATION Make the following settings before use. Refer to the documentation supplied with your display unit to locate and adjust the settings. Radar source In a system with more than one radar, the device to configure is selected from here. Note: Radars that support dual radar mode are represented twice in the source list, with an A and a B suffix. Radar status Used to view information about your radar, such as the software version, serial number and operating hours. Antenna setup X-axis and Y-axis. Used to set the approximate position of the antenna on the vessel. This enables your vessel icon to be positioned correctly on the PPI. Height. Used to set the height of the antenna above the water line. Ensure the antenna height is set correctly, as it affects the sea clutter function. Do not set the height to zero. Span. Used to select the length of your antenna. Adjust bearing alignment Used to compensate for any slight misalignment of the pedestal during installation and to make sure targets and bearings taken with the electronic bearing line display accurately. The adjustment is made by aligning the heading marker on the screen with the center line of the vessel. Sidelobe suppression Used to increase the suppression if there are false targets appearing as arcs radiating from either side of an actual target (typically large structures such as steel hulled ships, container wharves and large buildings). By default this control is set to Auto, and normally should not need to be adjusted. Note: This setting should only be adjusted by experienced radar users. Target loss in harbor environments can occur if it is not adjusted correctly. Sector blanking Used to stop the radar transmitting in the direction of structures that could cause unwanted reflections or interference to appear on the radar image. Four sectors can be set, the bearing of which is measured from the bow of the vessel to the center line of the sector. Adjust open array park angle Used to set the resting position of the antenna relative to the heading line of the radar when the radar is set to standby. The antenna will stop rotating at the desired offset. Optionally, the antenna can be held in place against wind by connecting the antenna park wire. Note: When entering standby, the antenna may rotate multiple times before coming to rest. HALO light Used to control the brightness level of the blue LED accent light on the pedestal. There are four brightness levels. The level can only be adjusted when the radar is in standby mode. Warning: The pedestals blue accent lighting may not be approved for use in your boating location. Check your local boating regulations before turning the blue accent light on. Reset radar to factory defaults Used to reset the radars control settings (not installation settings) to their factory defaults.

Subject: Navico Inc’s application for C2PC for their FCC ID: RAYHALO3000
To Whom It May Concern:
We are submitting a request for C2PC for the above referenced FCC Identifier, which was granted on
June 6, 2022.
The original RF Exposure assessment was too conservative and marketing requirements triggered a
more accurate measurement. Therefore, this C2PC comes with the MPE Measurement report, an
updated user manual containing the updated RF Exposure safety distance, revised test reports for Part
80 and 90 with minor clerical updates and an updated tuning procedure which reports the rated output
power.
Should you require any further information, please do not hesitate to let us know.
