fill in the warranty document and return it to your national distributor. By returning the warranty card, it will assist your distributor to give you prompt and expert attention. Please keep the proof of your purchase, as warranty claims will not be accepted without this. For warranty conditions see 8. 3 English WIND 4 WIND English 2 Installation • The installation includes 6 major steps: 1. Read the installation and operation manuals. 2. Plan where to install the transducers and instruments. 3. Run the cables. 4. Install the transducers and instruments. 5. Take a break and admire your installation. 6. Learn the functions and calibrate your system. Before you begin drilling ... think about how you can make the installation as neat and simple as your boat’s layout will allow. Plan where to position the transducers, WSI-box and instruments beforehand. Think about leaving space for additional instruments in the future. A few ”do not’s” that you should consider: Do not cut the cables too short. Allow extra cable length at the WSI-box so it can be disconnected for inspection without having to disconnect all the attached cables. Do not place sealant behind the display. The instrument gasket eliminates the need for sealant. Do not run cables in the bilge, where water can appear. Do not run cables close to fluorescent light sources, engine or radio transmitting equipment to avoid electrical disturbances. Don’t rush, take your time. • The following equipment is needed: Wire cutters and strippers. A small Philips and a small flat head screw driver. Hole saw for the instrument clearance hole - 63 mm (2½"). 1 5 mm ( /4") drill for the mounting holes. If you are at all doubtful about the installation, obtain the services of an experienced technician. 9 5 English WIND 2.1 Installing the instrument Place the adhesive drill template on the desired location for the instrument. Drill the two holes using a 5 mm (1/4") drill for the two pin bolts. Use a 63 mm (2½") hole saw to machine the clearance hole for the instrument connection socket. Remove the template once you have finished drilling. Screw the two pin bolts into the back of the instrument Put the instrument in place Screw the two nuts from the back to secure the instrument. Note! The two nuts must be hand-tightened only Run the Nexus Network cable from the WSI- box to the instrument. If you want to cut the Nexus Network cable to length, disconnect the 4-pole jack plug and cut the cable. Peel off about 35 mm (1.4") of the cable insulation. Remove about 6 mm (1/4") from the 3 isolated wires (the 4th wire is an earth / screen). Attach the 4 cable protectors to the wires using a pair of flat pliers. Silicon Connect the 4 cable protectors to the 4-pole jack plug as shown. Apply silicon paste on all locations as shown. Note: This is necessary to avoid corrosion. 6 WIND English Apply silicon paste to the instrument connection pins at the back of the instrument. Press the jack plug onto the instrument pins. Press the cable in to the cable leads. Mount the connection back cover with the screw. Do not over tighten. 2.1.1 Installing the instrument to the WSI-box All instruments are connected directly to the Nexus Network. They all use the same colour coded 4-pole jack plugs. (For instrument installation, see 2.2). 7 English WIND 2.1.2 Installing the instrument to the NX2 Server All instruments are connected directly to the Nexus Network. They all use the same colour coded 4-pole jack plugs. 2.1.3 Connecting to another Nexus instrument. Use the connection cable, 0,3 m (1 ft ), to connect from the back of another Nexus instrument (use the “Nexus” side on the back – this may involve inserting two wires into the same connector). The other end then connects to the “Nexus” side on the back of this instrument. 3 First start (only in a Nexus Network) 3.1 Initialising the instrument At power on, the instrument will perform a self test. The display will first show all segments, then the software version number and the Nexus Network ID number. At first power on after installation, you will be asked to press the SET button key [PrS KEY]. This will then give the instrument a logical and unique ID number on the Nexus Network. 8 WIND English To initialise the instrument, press SET on all the

TECHNICAL DATA: BILGE STRUM BOX OR EQUIVALENT • The bilge suction line is normally fitted with a perforated strum box around the suction which prevents cargo debris from entering the bilge line • This is not to be confused with a strainer plate on top of the bilge well (see photos) • Some bilges are provided with a two-compartment system: one bilge well with a perforated cover (strainer) and one with a full cover. Between the two compartments there is an opening to allow water to overflow, which can also be fitted with a perforated plate to prevent debris from entering the bilge line ISSUE WHEN NO PROTECTION IS FITTED • When no protection is provided for the bilge suction, any debris can enter the suction line and cause clogging (impair suction) or get stuck in the non-return system on the bilge line (cause backflow) IMCS BVBA – SHIP INSPECTION DEPARTMENT – [email protected] - WWW.IMCS-GROUP.COM PAGE 1/2 AMVP INSPECTION MANUAL BILGE STRUM BOX OR EQUIVALENT MISSING WHAT KIND OF FEEDBACK IS EXPECTED?

    BOAT INFORMATION BOOK (BIB) FOR NAVY 44 MK II SAIL TRAINING CRAFT AT THE UNITED STATES NAVAL ACADEMY SECOND EDITION April 15, 2017 Revision 4 April 30, 2020 FORWARD ____________________________________________________________________________ SCOPE The Boat Information Book (BIB) for the Navy 44 MK II is published by the Vanderstar Chair and issued by the Director of Naval Academy Sailing as the model manager for this Sail Training Craft (STC). The BIB contains information on the boat systems, performance data and operating procedures required for safe and effective operations. It should be used in conjunction with the system owner’s manuals where available. However, it is not a substitute for sound judgment. Compound emergencies, available facilities, adverse weather or sea conditions, or considerations affecting the lives and property of others may require modification of the procedures contained herein. Read this BIB from cover to cover prior to embarking. It’s your responsibility to have a complete knowledge of its contents. The bottom line, however, is that you use your best deductive reasoning for each unique situation and THINK as you employ this BIB. AVAILABILITY OF THIS PUBLICATION The BIB will be distributed on each Navy 44 MK II as part of the publication loadout. It is your responsibility to ensure that it’s onboard. It will also be posted online on the Navy Sailing website and on the USNA Intranet Blackboard for midshipmen, faculty and staff who are granted access to this program.
