Vessel constructionThe construction of your vessel can have an impact on GPSperformance. For example, the proximity of heavy structuresuch as a structural bulkhead, or the interior of larger vesselsmay result in a reduced GPS signal. Before locating equipmentwith an internal GPS antenna below decks, seek professionalassistance and consider use of an external GPS antennamounted above decks.Prevailing conditionsThe weather and location of the vessel can affect the GPSperformance. Typically calm clear conditions provide for a moreaccurate GPS fix. Vessels at extreme northerly or southerlylatitudes may also receive a weaker GPS signal. GPS antennamounted below decks will be more susceptible to performanceissues related to the prevailing conditions.Viewing angle considerationsAs display contrast, color and night mode performance are allaffected by the viewing angle, Raymarine recommends youtemporarily power up the display when planning the installation,to enable you to best judge which location gives the optimumviewing angle.5.2 Mounting - New a SeriesViewing angleD12576-1CDA Ba6x a7xA 60º 75ºB 60º 75ºC 60º 70ºD 50º 75ºNote: The angles stated are for a contrast ratio of equal to orgreater than 10.Product dimensionsD12579-2ADCFBEItem a6x a7xA 163.6 mm (6.4 in.) 205.1 mm (8 in.)B 143.5 mm (5.6 in.) 147.1 mm (5.8 in.)C 17.5 mm (0.7 in.) 14.5 mm (0.57 in.)D 56.6 mm (2.2 in.) 59.1 mm (2.3 in.)E 162.4 mm (6.4 in.) 163.3 mm (6.4 in.)F 150 mm (5.9 in.) 150 mm (5.9 in.)Mountingthe display can be surface mounted.Before mounting the unit, ensure that you have:• Selected a suitable location.• Identified the cable connections and route that the cables willtake.• Detached the front bezel.Location and mounting 69
