The RAA100 has two primary connections: 1) the NMEA 2000

®

 network connection, and 2) the 

resistive rudder angle sender connection. Therefore, the RAA100 should be located between 
the NMEA 2000

®

 trunk line and the resistive rudder angle sender. The reason for choosing this 

location is because you will be connecting some of the wires within the RAA100’s permanently 
attached gray cable to the rudder angle sender. Maretron recommends placing the RAA100 
within 15 feet of the rudder angle sender so the gray cable can be directly attached to the 
sender without any splices (see Figure 2). You may also consider placing the RAA100 as close 
as possible to the NMEA 2000

®

 trunk line so you can purchase the shortest or lowest cost 

NMEA 2000

®

 drop cable. In fact, you can connect the RAA100 directly to a tee attached to the 

NMEA 2000

®

 trunk so you don’t have to purchase any drop cable. The actual mounting of the 

RAA100 is not critical and the unit can be mounted in any orientation. The RAA100, NMEA 
2000

®

 connector, and cable are all waterproof (rated IP67 – protected against temporary 

immersion in water) so you can mount the unit virtually anywhere. Once you have located a 
suitable mounting location, you can secure the RAA100 by placing wire ties with screw eyes 
on the attached cables near the RAA100.
