Chapter 2 - Installation

Disconnect power.
Determine the best location for
the unit. It can be any place con-
venient or suitable with better
being higher and away from ob-
structions.
Your
choices will vary depending on
the mount included in the kit.
Using the items included with
your mount kit, attach the mount
such that the antenna will be
vertical.
Note: Not all parts supplied
may be needed. Depending on
your setup, different screws,
anchors, etc. may be required.
When installing at the top of a
mast with a wind vane, ensure
that the installation will not inter-
fere with wind vane rotation.
Note: If installing at masthead,
rotate Xtreme such that its
LEDs face toward the mast
thus hiding them. On a dark
night, its bright LEDs may be
confused for masthead lights
by other boats.
Some remaining steps may not be required
Estimate the amount of cable needed to get from the mounting location to
the deck transit location (the place where the cable will go through the deck)
and then to a convenient place for splicing below deck. Ensure that suffi-
cient cable length is remaining for the distance to where the Power Adapter
is to be located and cut the cable. If no through deck fitting will be used or if
it is large enough to allow the cable connector to pass through, no cutting
may be required.
Note: Do not use excessive force when pulling the cable through con-
duits, etc. Avoid pulling the cable's connector through conduit. Do not
make sharp bends in the cable. When changing direction, bends
should never be sharper than the round edge of a standard screw driv-
er handle. Avoid the use of a staple gun – if the insulation is pierced,
the cable can be rendered useless. The cable transfers digital data, so
there is no need to remove excess cable. Bitstorm recommends coil-
ing and securing any extra cable.
Route the remaining cable to the location where the Power Adapter will be.
To prevent connector contact corrosion, apply corrosion inhibitor (included)
