System components share data together via a common Fastnet

databus

and are supplied with bayonet connectors for ease of installation. A
selection of cable lengths are available with options for straight and right
angle connectors to suit most requirements.

To prevent the occurrence of voltage drops on larger systems, the power
supply to the system should either be placed mid-way or at both ends of
the Fastnet

databus. To connect power to the mid-point of the system, it

is recommended that the 4-Way Hub be used. The 4-Way Hub offers two
advantages. The first advantage is that it offers a convenient entry point
for power onto the system. The second advantage is that it conveniently
allows the system to be branched to reduce the overall length of the
system. The correct selection of Fastnet

cable will negate the need for

any plugs to be removed from the system and ensure years of faultless
operation.

Secure the mounting bracket to the top of the mast. The bracket must be aligned so that the Masthead Unit spar
points forward.

Secure the cable/bracket assembly to a flat and horizontal surface at the masthead using the four bolts supplied. A
template is provided to facilitate this process.

Taking care not to damage the pins carefully push-fit the masthead unit onto the bracket assembly and securely
tighten the locking collar.

To achieve the full potential of your new B&G system, this instrument must be calibrated before use.
