Cable

If a longer power cable run is required, use the supplied power cable to connect 
to the display unit. Then use a suitable connector block to connect the free end 
to the extension cable, taking particular care to ensure correct polarity. The 
supplied power cable has a cross-section of 2.0 mm

.

Note: For repeater displays, the power cable may be extended by up to 20 m 
using a wire gauge of 1.5 mm

The inter-unit (scanner) cable entrance is at the rear of the scanner unit. If the 
unit is mounted on a hollow mast the cable may be run inside the mast and then 
fed through the radar’s cable entrance. Make sure that the cable does not chafe 
where it enters the mast.

Note: Route the cable from the display up to the scanner, since this will re-
quire the smallest clearance hole.

The type of inter-unit cable, for connecting the scanner to the display unit, 
depends on your scanner package. Refer to the Pathfinder Plus Radar 
Scanner Owner’s Handbook for details, which include length considerations 
and bending radii.

The number of 

hsb

 (PLUS) display units that can be connected is limited by 

the total cable length. 

For example:

10 units

Max. total cable length - 40 m

8 units

Max. total cable length - 60 m

Note: If you have fewer displays, it may be possible to have more than 60 me-
tres of cable and conversely, if your total cable length is less than 40 metres, it 
may be possible to connect more
