Installation

It is recommended that the unit be powered and connected to a video source to assist in selecting a suitable mounting location, prior to irreversible modification of the vessel's helm station. When planning the monitor location, the following points should be considered to ensure safe, comfortable and reliable operation:

  • Convenience - the mounting location should be easily accessible to allow operation of the controls and should enable easy viewing of the monitor.
  • Viewing distance - the monitor is designed with a nominal viewing distance of 1 meter (3 ft).
  • Access - there must be sufficient space behind the monitor to allow cable connections to the rear connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cable. Also ensure there is sufficient access for tightening wing nuts/screws on the mounting brackets, where used.
  • Interference - the selected location should be far enough away from devices that may cause interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitters/receivers.
  • Compass safe distance -
16" monitors 19" monitors 24" monitors 27" monitors
Standard compass 1.90 m (6.3 ft) 2.00 m (6.6 ft) 2.30 m (7.6 ft) 1.4 m (4.6 ft)
Steering compass 1.10 m (3.7 ft) 1.10 m (3.7 ft) 1.20 m (4.0 ft) 0.75 m (2.4 ft)

- Environment - to prevent overheating, do not restrict airflow at the rear of the monitor; ensure that there is adequate ventilation, particularly if the monitor is pod-mounted. If the space behind the monitor is air conditioned or cooled by a fan, it will help in keeping the unit's temperature down. The monitors are designed to operate in protected environments, however, we recommend the units not be mounted in a location where they will be exposed to direct sunlight for prolonged periods.

The monitor should be protected from physical damage and excessive vibration. Although the monitor is waterproof from the front when installed correctly, it is good practice to mount it in a protected area away from prolonged and direct exposure to rain and salt spray.

→ Note: Where flush mounted, the enclosure should be dry and well ventilated. The ventilation of the space behind the unit should be enough to prevent excessive heat build up as a combined result of radiated heat off the monitor, and sunlight heating of the enclosure. In very small enclosures, it may be required to fit forced cooling.

⚠ Warning: Inadequate ventilation and subsequent overheating of display may cause unreliable operation and reduced service life. Ensure enclosure does not consistently exceed +55°C (+131°F) during normal daytime operation (in direct sunlight, and at full screen brightness).

Cutout template

Use the supplied scale template to help mark up the cutout area.

→ Note: Always check the template dimensions against the physical monitor to ensure dimensions are correct, prior to making the cutout.

Fixing options

The M5000 series monitors can be dash or bracket mounted (using optional VESA adaptor). When dash mounting, unit should be fitted using the rear mounted dash mount brackets, and bezel screws from the front. Exclusion of the dash mount bracket will increase strain on bezel screws and adjacent bezel plastics, and is not recommended.

→ Note: The VESA adaptor fixing option is NOT tested against IEC 60945. Monitors that are part of a type approved system can therefore NOT use the VESA bracket mounting option.

Flush-mounting the display

→ Note: The following guidelines and warnings apply:

Important drill bit size selection information Soft materials e.g. Plywood 1.9 - 2.3 mm (5/64") Hard materials e.g. GRP, Acrylic, hardwoods 2.3 - 2.5 mm (3/32") Front mount screw recommendations Max 5.5 mm (0.22")

  1. Fit the supplied M4 machine screws, washers, and plastic spacers to each of the four threaded fittings on the back case of screen. Hand tighten only.

VESA mounting the display

→ Note: The VESA adaptor fixing option is NOT tested against IEC 60945. Monitors that are part of a type approved system can therefore NOT use the VESA bracket mounting option.

VESA bracket adaptor is available as an optional part for all display sizes, allowing a variety of wall and free standing bracket mounting options. The fasteners for attachment to the display are included with the bracket.

Monitors mounted using a Vesa bracket should be mounted in an area sheltered from rain and sea spray.

→ Note: For IPX rating refer to "Specifications" on page 22.

Cleaning and maintenance

If the display requires cleaning, use a damp soft cloth (e.g. microfiber) with a mild, non-abrasive glass cleaner. Ensure cloth is regularly washed or replaced.

→ Note: Do not use paper products as they may scratch the surface. To minimize the risk of abrasion, allow the screen to air dry.
→ Note: Never use acidic, ammonia based, or abrasive cleaning products to clean the display. These products will damage special coatings on the glass.
→ Note: To prevent damage caused by lightning strikes, it is recommended to disconnect the display from the power source during intense storms, or when the product is not in use for extended periods.

Display removal

The display's top and bottom bezel trim must be removed in order to undo the fasteners holding unit in place by the mounting flange. The bezel trim have been designed to be very low profile, and therefore fully conceal the locking tabs that keep them from being accidentally disengaged from the mounting flange. To release the locking tab, it is necessary to gently lever the centre of the bezel trim away from the mounting flange. To remove the cover, simultaneously slide it sideways; to the right for the top cover, and to the left for the bottom cover.

The mounting brackets should be loosened in reverse order to fitting. To remove the brackets, depress the locking tab before sliding brackets upwards.

Replacing the gasket

The foam gasket on the rear of the display bezel is available as an optional accessory, should the factory installed item be damaged.

SIMRAD M5000 - Replacing the gasket - 1

natural_image Technical diagram of an electrical connector assembly with internal components and directional arrows (no text or labels)

Fit the two lengths of foam gasket in to the rebated channel on the back of the displays mounting flange. Only remove backing paper from the side to be stuck to monitor, and only remove a small amount at a time. Ensure the gasket ends of the two halves overlap and make contact.

→ Note: Take care not to stretch gasket when applying. Only pull gasket minimum amount required to lay it on straight. The backing paper on outside of gasket will help prevent stretch, and should only be removed when display is ready to install in to dashboard.

Replacing the filters

Where displays are installed in an unsealed enclosure, air intake filters should be inspected yearly, and replaced if noticeably fouled. If vessel is subject to major works involving spray painting or sanding, it is recommended that the monitor either be removed, or completely covered in a clean fabric drop cloth.

Technical diagram of a device layout with labeled components and an inset showing internal structure with slots and connectors.

→ Note: M5016 and M5019 models require three filter elements. The filter accessory kit includes five elements.

Other maintenance

Only qualified service personnel should perform any repairs that require opening of the case.

⚠ Warning: Some components in the display unit operate on high voltages. Repairs require specialized service procedures and tools only available to service technicians - there are no user serviceable parts or adjustments. The operator should never remove the display unit cover or attempt to service the equipment. Any attempt to do so may make the warranty invalid.

Updating the firmware

Updates to the M5000 series monitor firmware may occasionally become available. The updates will typically include improvements to existing functionality or new features, and will be made available via the Simrad PRO website: www.navico.com/commercial

Checking current firmware version

On the Configuration page it is possible to see the name of the monitor, resolution (native), OSD version, BIOS version, and the serial number.

Installing an update

Updates should be loaded via a compatible Simrad device such as the NSO evo2. Refer to the applicable product manual on how to upgrade a device over NMEA 2000.

Alternatively, return the device to a Navico dealer to arrange updating.

→ Note: We do not recommend updating more than two displays at the same time. Do not update the display being used to monitor the update status. In the rare occurrence the update fails, the LED indicator will flash and nothing will be visible on the screen.

Troubleshooting

Issue Possible Cause
No picture - red LED ONLED on continuously indicates no (compatible) video is available on currently selected source;Confirm that the correct video input is selectedCheck that the video signal cable is properly connected to the display. Test cable with 'known good' equipmentCheck display settings of the video source - ensure the resolution is supported by the displayEnsure brightness is turned up to a suitable level
No picture - red LED flashingFlashing LED indicates there is no ground connection detected.
No picture - red LED OFFMake sure power is connected to an appropriate DC voltage source, and that the fuse is fitted or breaker is switched on. After pressing power button, the red LED should blink as monitor starts up, followed by momentary display of the logo on the screen. Make sure brightness level is set to a suitable level.
Image persistenceImage persistence occurs when a ghost of an image remains on the screen after the screen image has been changed. Unlike a CRT monitor, an LCD monitor's image persistence is not permanent. To erase an image ghost, turn the monitor off for several hours. To avoid this condition, do not leave the monitor displaying the same image unnecessarily, for an extended period of time
Picture quality & image stabilityCheck for video cable condition; is shield intact, and does cable not exceed maximum distance for video standardCheck the signal source is outputting a compatible resolution at a supported frequencyMonitor may be receiving incorrect/bad sync signals from sourceVideo compromised by interference from other equipment
Low level backlightSupply voltage has dropped below 10 V. Will restore at >11 VUnit has been subject to excessively hot direct sunlight for an extended period and/or unit enclosure is too hot. Automatic thermal protection has been enabled
Slight distortion in text or graphicsNot working in native resolution, where possible adjust the video source to output correct resolution
Display is present but "bars" appear or roll across screenGround loop problem between video source and monitorVideo compromised by interference from other equipment
Vertical shaded bars on screen imageIncoming video may be in 4:3 ratio, either leave in 'aspect' mode, or set to 'fill' to use full screen space.
