The following parts are supplied with a standard HS50 system: 

−  Sensor unit with 1 meter cable w/connector and 4 

fastening bolts 

−  Display unit with 15 meters cable to the Processing 

unit and flush mounting kit 

−  Processing unit including 4 fastening screws 
−  30 meters cable to be used between Sensor unit and 

Processing unit 

−  Documentation 

 

 

Caution! 
The Sensor unit has to be mounted in a way that 
avoids blocking of the GPS signal. 
The Processing and Display Unit can be 
mounted on the bridge or in the instrument 
room. 

 

No units should be exposed to heavy vibration, 
transformers or similar. 

Use only shielded cables for the installation. This includes 
power input and signal cables. The cables should be of 0.5 mm

2

 

(AWG20) twisted pairs. 

The cable to the Display unit and other cables (NMEA 
input/output, Ethernet) should not be run in parallel with other 
cables carrying RF or high current, such as VHF and SSB 
transmitters, battery charges/generators and winches. 

All units in the HS50 system use the Processing unit as a 
common ground/shield connection. The Processing unit should 
therefore have a proper ground connection to the hull/bonding 
system.
