mn100 Analogue Display EMC Conformance All Tacktick equipment is designed to the best industry standards for use in the recreational marine environment. The design and manufacture of Tacktick equipment conforms to the appropriate Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards. Correct installation is required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Important Due to the wireless communication systems used in Micronet instruments they are only recommended for use on boats up to 18 meters ( ft.) Before installing to a boat of aluminum or steel construction, please contact your Tacktick dealer. Like any other Electronic instruments your Micronet system is designed to serve only as an aid to navigation and it remains the skippers responsibility to maintain a permanent watch and be aware of developing situations. www.tacktick.com

mn100 Analogue Display 1 Information 1.1 Introduction Your Micronet display is powered for life by the environment. Although feature packed and highly visible in all conditions, current demand is so low, and the supply so efficient, that the solar-powered display is self sufficient. Combined with other displays in the Micronet range this display becomes part of a complete navigational system. 1.2 Specifications Height of digits: 7mm (0.28") Backlighting: 3 levels with daylight shutoff System-wide or local control Power: Solar Powered 300 hrs autonomy by day, 7 nights at brightest backlighting, 20 nights at economy backlighting without charge Units of display: Wind Speed (knots, meters per second, Beaufort) Alarm: Audible Alarm for lost network Weight: 285g (0.63lbs) Operating Temp.: -10 o to + o C (14 o to 140 o F) Frequency: 868 MHz or 916 MHz This unit can be controlled using the T113 Remote Display 1.3 Power Management and Battery Life What makes your mn100 display possible is Tacktick s revolutionary approach to power management. By reducing the amount of power being used by the electronics and maximizing the potential of the sun to provide power, a mn100 display becomes a virtually perpetual device. Power status is indicated by two icons on the display: Battery Level and Charge Rate Used together these icons will show the condition of the power supply. 2 www.tacktick.com

Introduction Bright Sunny Day Overcast Day Night Battery is charged and being topped up by the sun. (see Note) Battery is low and being charged by the sun. Battery is charged and requires no further charging. Battery is low but maintaining it s level. Battery is charged but is not charging. Battery is low with no charging. LOW Power It is recommended that the instrument be left in daylight for some time for the battery to recover, or charge from an external 9-30V power source. A fully discharged battery will recharge in approximately 12 hours of direct bright sunlight. If using the displays at night, power usage can be reduced dramatically by switching the backlighting to level 1 or Off. If backlighting is not required on displays located below decks it is best to set them to "Local" backlighting control (see page 15 s9) so that power is not being wasted in displays which may not be visible from the one being viewed. Note: If the internal battery is fully charged then it does not matter how much the display is subjected to bright sunlight no further charging is required and the Charge Rate Indicator will remain low. If the displays are to be stored for a long period of time before next use (over winter) ensure that the batteries are fully charged before storage. If necessary connect to a 9 to 30V DC power supply for 24 hrs prior to storage. www.tacktick.com 3

mn100 Analogue Display Sleep Mode If there is no boat speed or change in heading registered on the system for a period of 12 hours your Micronet display will switch off to conserve power. A "POWER SAVE" alarm will sound before the system switches off. Pressing any button within 10 seconds of the alarm sounding will allow the system to remain switched on. Backlighting will automatically shut down/off when operated in daylight. Artificial light WILL NOT recharge the battery. Placing your Micronet display close to an artificial light will seriously damage the display. Only recharge in natural daylight. Applying External Power In cases where displays are mounted permanently below decks it will be necessary to apply an external power source to prevent complete discharge of the built in battery. Connections on the rear of the display allow a 9V to 30V DC power source to be connected. Connections can be made to the vessels DC system or a 9V battery pack may be connected. It is recommended that permanent connection is only made when the displays are permanently fixed to the vessel and not when the clip brackets are used. Connection to a 9V (PP3) battery will fully recharge the internal battery over a period of 24 hours. 1.4 Safety and Disposal Your Micronet display contains Manganese Lithium Dioxide batteries which should be disposed of correctly. Do not dispose of any instrument in domestic waste. Refer to regulations in force in your country. If in doubt return the instrument to Tacktick Ltd. for correct disposal. 4 www.tacktick.com

Operation 2 Operation Important: Ensure that the "Auto Network" procedure described on the yellow instruction sheet and full Setup and Calibration has been performed correctly before attempting to use your Micronet system. 2.1 Display Information Chapter Button Hold down for on/off Set-up Button Prompt Set Button Page and Adjust Buttons Hold down for Backlighting Analogue Pointer Descriptive Text Battery Level Charge Rate Display Icons The following icons are used to display information on the screen KTS, M/S to display wind speed units TRU, APP to indicate true or apparent wind o to indicate degrees of angle www.tacktick.com 5

Installation 5 Installation 5.1 Tools list and Parts Tools Required 2.5mm or 5mm Drill Bit (7mm if power connection required) Power Drill Cross Head Screwdriver Parts List Mounting Template Display Backplate and 2x Clip Brackets Mounting Screws (3) Mounting Bolts (3) M4 Studs & Thumbnuts (3) Sealing Gaskets (4) Double Sided Tape 5.2 Precautions and Positioning Advice Ensure mounting surface is flat. Leave space between displays for sun covers. Leave space to remove display from bracket (if used). Avoid areas where damage may occur (winch handles, feet, warps etc.) Select a flat, smooth, surface for mounting and use the template provided to select a suitable position for mounting your Micronet display. Check for clarity of vision and ease of access to the control buttons, it is recommended that displays are positioned such that your arm does NOT pass through the spokes of the steering wheel when operating the buttons. Contrast is limited at night when a display is viewed from beneath. Avoid mounting displays in a position where you will look upwards to view them. www.tacktick.com 19

mn100 Analogue Display 5.3 Bracket Mounting (Preferred Method) This method allows for the easy removal of a display as and when required, for either security reasons or to prevent damage or discomfort whilst not in use. 1. Using the three supplied M4 bolts attach the back plate to the rear of the display (Fig.1). 2. Drill three 2.5mm holes marked "A" on the Template and using the supplied self tapping screws, screw the clip bracket to the mounting surface (Fig.2). 3. Place the display flat against the bracket slightly higher than the final position and slide gently down into position. There will be a small click as the bracket secures the display into position (Fig.3). 4. To release the display press lightly on the bracket tab and slide the display upwards (Fig.4). 20 www.tacktick.com

5.4 Surface Mounting Installation Where there is no access to the rear of the mounting surface Easy installation but will allow removal without gaining access to the boat. Position the supplied Template carefully before starting. 1. Drill three 2.5mm holes marked "B" on the template. 2. Carefully snap the facia of the display off the main body taking care not to drop the button pads. HINT It may be useful to place a piece of sticky tape across the front of the buttons before removing the facia to prevent them from falling out during the installation. 3. Remove the three captive M4 nuts from the plastic moulding and attach the display to the mounting surface using the three self tapping screws provided. Take care not to over tighten the screws as this may cause the moulding to crack. 4. Check the display is perfectly level; carefully position the button inserts into the correct slots and snap the facia back into position. Temporary Mounting 1. Use the double sided tape provided to secure the display to a suitable mounting surface. Press the display firmly against the surface until secure. Note: This method is recommended for temporary use only. For example, finding an appropriate location before drilling holes. www.tacktick.com 21

mn100 Analogue Display Where access is available to the rear of the mounting surface This method allows for maximum security of a permanently mounted display. Position the supplied template carefully before starting. 1. Drill three 5mm holes marked "B" on the template. 2. Screw the four M4 brass studs into the rear of the display. 3. Place the display in position pushing the three studs through the newly drilled holes. 4. Using the three supplied thumb nuts, secure the display to the surface making sure it is level before final tightening. 5.5 External Power Connections To connect an external 9 to 30V DC power supply to the display head from either a portable battery or the vessel s existing power system. 1. Drill two 7mm holes marked "P" on the mounting template and smooth them together with a sharp knife or small file. 2. Pass the supply cable through the new hole and attach the supplied crimp spade receptacles. 3. Remove the blanking plug from the rear of the display to expose the terminals. 3. Taking care to connect the correct polarity push the receptacles firmly onto the spades on the rear of the display. 4. Mount the display head securely in position. 5. Clamp the cable securely close to the display. 22 www.tacktick.com

Maintenance and Fault Finding 6 Maintenance and Fault Finding 6.1 Care and Maintenance All Micronet products are totally sealed against water and are not serviceable. Any attempt to take a Micronet product apart will invalidate the warranty. To clean, use only a damp, soft cloth. No detergents, solvents or abrasives should be used. To avoid damaging a Micronet display unit we recommend storing in the supplied soft pack when not in use. If the displays are to be stored for a long period of time before next use (Over Winter) ensure that the batteries are fully charged before storage. If necessary connect to a 9 to 30V DC power supply for 24 hrs prior to storage. 6.2 Fault Finding and Technical Support A single display flashes the battery symbol and then switches off. The battery level is low on the particular display affected. Connect to a 9 to 30V DC power source or leave in bright sunlight for 12 hours minimum to fully recharge the display s internal battery.
