2 VHF installation

2.1 Location requirements

Please check these before doing any cutting or drilling.

Whichever installation method you choose, ensure that the chosen location:

• Is at least 3’ (1 m) from the antenna

• Allows easy connection to (at least) a 10 Amp fused 13.6 V DC electrical source and the antenna

• Is at least 1.5’ (45 cm) from the compass to avoid creating magnetic deviation of the compass during radio operation

• Has a suitable space close by for installing the microphone bulkhead mount

• Provides easy access to the controls on the front panel

• Provides reasonable access to the wiring at the back of the radio

• Provides enough room to fix the DSC warning label.

Side

2.2 LCD viewing angle

The VHF has a large LCD screen with an optimum viewing angle of approx. +/-20 deg.

Ensure the chosen location provides a suitable view of the display. Ideally, the user should be directly in front of the display or no more than

+/-20 deg from the front of the display.

Note: If unsure, temporarily power up the radio and check for a suitable location.

2.3 Choose an installation type

There are two ways to install the radio. You can choose:

• Deck or overhead mounting bracket installation. The reversible mounting gimbal is fixed to a suitable site and the radio is placed into it. The radio can be removed for storage and the viewing angle can be adjusted.

• In dash or recessed installation. The radio is recessed into a cavity cut into a bulkhead.

The radio fixture is permanent and the viewing angle cannot be adjusted.

B&G - V50 & H50 Installation Instructions 7

2.3.1 Mounting bracket installation

1. Hold the supplied mounting bracket at the chosen location and use a soft pencil to mark the 4 screw hole positions onto the mounting surface.

2. Drill the 4 screw holes where marked. Drill completely through the mounting surface.

Note: If you are drilling into fiberglass, use a small drill bit to drill pilot holes before drilling the screw holes.

3. Use the flat screws, spring washers, plain washers, and nuts to attach the mounting bracket to the location site OR, if you cannot reach behind the mounting surface to attach the nuts, use the self-tapping screws instead of the flat screws.

4. Slide the radio into the mounting bracket.

5. Insert the 2 mounting knobs through the holes and tighten them sufficiently to hold the radio at your preferred viewing angle.

6. You can adjust the viewing angle at any time. The viewing angle has a 20º tilt range.

7. Now install the microphone wall hanger.

8 B&G - V50 & H50 Installation Instructions

2.3.2 Recessed installation

1. Tape the supplied mounting template to the chosen location. Ensure that the template is smooth and taut.

2. Drill the 2 screw holes where marked. Drill completely through the mounting surface.

Note: If you are drilling into fiberglass, use a small drill bit to drill pilot holes before drilling the screw holes.

3. Drill through the corners of the hatched area where marked, then cut out the hatched area to create a cavity in the mounting surface. (The dashed line shows the total area that will be covered by the radio fascia after installation).

4. Remove the mounting template and slide the radio into the cavity.

5. Working from the rear of the bulkhead, screw the radio firmly to the mounting surface using the 2 M5 x 32 screws with the plain washers and nuts.

(The screws should not be visible from the front of the radio).

6. Now install the microphone wall hanger.

2.5 Handset mic wall hanger

1. Hold the handset mic wall hanger at the chosen location and use a soft pencil to mark the 2 screw hole positions onto the mounting surface.

2. If the mounting surface is:

• non-metallic, use the 2 self-tapping screws and 2 plain washers to attach the handset mic wall hanger to the mounting surface.

• metallic, use the 2 flat screws, 2 spring washers and 2 nuts to attach the handset mic wall hanger to the mounting surface.

3. Hang the handset mic on the handset mic wall hanger.

3 VHF electrical installation

3.1 Connect the radio

Both NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000 is supported by this radio. Use the GPS connector cable to connect NMEA 0183, or the N2K connector for NMEA 2000 connections.

1 - VHF antenna

A suitable radio antenna (not supplied) must be mounted and connected before you can operate the radio. Consult your B&G dealer for advice, if necessary.

Always mount the VHF antenna as high as possible and at least 37” (96 cm) from the base station.

2 - NMEA 2000 (N2K) connector

The radio can be connected to an NMEA 2000 network via the NMEA 2000 NETWORK connector on the rear of the radio by a compliant N2K cable (not supplied).
