1. Display Description
Glass Bridge Displays
®
offer the largest display in the smallest housing, minimizing overall dimensions,
enabling multiple displays to be mounted and maximizing available space. The TFT LCD’s used in the
Glass Bridge Series range from 12.1” through to 21.3” in either Daylight or Sunlight readable variants.
Each display is fitted with interface circuits that allow it to be connected with up to eight (8) inputs
ranging from GA and D I to Composite ideo sources. The display can accept signals of lower
resolution, such as GA. These signals are scaled so that they are displayed full screen.
Along with conventional LCD brightness and contrast controls, the display has an advanced dynamic
brightness dimming technique, permitting full brightness to “Dim to Red” selectable at any brightness
which is typically employed during night-time operation at low backlight levels.
A unique but simple remote On Screen Display (OSD) user interface known as the GB Commander
allows the user to adjust a wide variety of display parameters if necessary. Once the parameters are
set they are stored in non-volatile EEPROM. This ensures that the set-up is retained after power is
switched off.
All Displays are designed for operation from an external regulated 12.1 DC supply.
Nauticomp offers a wide range of external power supplies to match the power consumption
requirements of individual applications – 12 DC, 24 DC & 110/230 AC.
Each Glass Bridge Display
®
is shipped with a 3 year limited warranty 100% parts and labour.

2 INSTALLATION
.1 Handling Precautions
The casing of the Display gives good protection to its internal components. To prevent damage to the
LCD Display, it is important to observe a few simple precautions.
2.1.1 Unpack your display carefully to prevent damage.
2.1.2 Save the carton and packing in case you need to return the Display for service.
2.1.3 If the surface is soiled, wipe lightly with clean absorbent cotton or other soft cloth.
2.1.4 The TFT panel and circuit boards contain devices that are sensitive to Electrostatic
Discharge. Adequate ESD precautions should be taken during unpacking, handling and
installation of the TFT monitor.
2.1.5 There are no user serviceable parts inside the monitor. All servicing must be carried
out by qualified personnel.
2.1.6 The casing should never be opened by unqualified personnel, as there are potentially
harmful voltages within this equipment.
. Planning
Before you install your Display, plan the installation considering:
2.2.1 Display location and mounting options.
2.2.2 Power requirements.
2.2.3 Cable runs do not run video cables near any AC power sources.
2.2.4 Additional components e.g. Glass Bridge Commander and peripheral devices.
.3 Power Requirements
The display requires an external, regulated, 12.1 DC power supply.
To meet onboard requirements, Nauticomp offers a wide range of external power supplies to match
the power consumption requirements of individual displays being – 12 DC, 24 DC, & 115/230 AC.

2 INSTALLATION con inued
.4 Grounding
It is important that an effective RF ground is connected to the display. You must ground the display
by connecting the drain (earth) terminal directly on the Nauticomp power supply to the nearest RF
ground source (superstructure). The length should be as short as possible.
CAUTION:
This Display is not intended for use on ‘’Positive’ ground circuits. The power input cable Earth screen
connections must be connected directly to a RF ground source.
.5 DC Power Connections
The power connection to the Nauticomp Power Supply should be made at either the output of the
battery isolator switch, or at a DC power distribution panel. Nauticomp recommends that power be
fed directly to the Nauticomp Power Supply via its own dedicated cable system. An in-line fuse is
required to be installed on the positive (+) feed going to the Nauticomp provided power supply.
See table below for reference:-
Vessel Power Source Rating of Fuse
12 DC 10 Amp
24 DC 5 Amp
.6 Extending the Power Cable
Longer power cable runs may require larger wire gauges to minimize any voltage drop in the cable.
Ensure that the minimum voltage specification of the display is met at the junction of these cables
when the Display is operating at full brightness. If a longer power cable run is required, use the
supplied power cable to connect to the display unit. Then use a suitable connector block to connect
the free end to the extension cable; take particular care to ensure correct polarity and grounding of
the screening braid to an RF ground source. The supplied 3 meter power cable (Part # 23-LTWPOW)
has a cross-section of 16 AWG.

.7
Cable Runs
Consider the following before installing the Display:-
2.7.1 All cables should be adequately secured, protected from physical damage and
protected from exposure to heat. Avoid running cables through bilges or doorways, or
close to moving or hot objects.
2.7.2 Acute bends must be avoided.
2.7.3 Where a cable passes through an exposed bulkhead or deckhead, a watertight feed-
through should be used.
2.7.4 Make sure any excess cable is coiled and secured.
2.7.5 Do not run video cables near AC power sources or wires.
CAUTION:
Do not ‘Pull’ cables through the bulkheads, walls or tight spaces using a cord attached to the
connector. This could damage the connections.
.8 Display Location
2.8.1 Viewing angle: This LCD panel has been chosen to give the very best performance,
including viewing angle. However, the contrast and colours seen on all LCD displays
vary slightly with viewing angle.
Note:
iewing an LCD panel from the bottom angle (outside specified display viewing
angle characteristic) is typically unacceptable.
2.8.2 Access: There must be sufficient space behind the display to allow cable connections
to the rear connectors, avoiding tight bends in the cable. All connections are bottom
entry.
2.8.3 Interference: The selected location should be far enough away from devices that
may cause interference, such as motors, generators and radio transmitter/receivers
(see the EMC guidelines section 2.9).
2.8.4 Magnetic compass: Mount the display unit at least 3 ft (1m) away from a magnetic
compass.
2.8.4 Environment: To prevent overheating, do not restrict airflow at the front or rear of
the display unit; ensure there is adequate ventilation.

Page 9 of 30
2 INSTALLATION con inued
2.8.5 Heat Management: The display is designed to work within most high ambient heat
conditions. There are extreme yet rare conditions that may cause the display to go
black or “ Blackout ”. This is normally caused by concentrated and excessive U rays
(DIRECT SUNLIGHT) acting on the LCD panel.
To minimize the risk of the Display being subjected to the above one should endeavour
to:-
2.8.5.1 Employ additional cooling to assist with heat dissipation.
2.8.5.2 Provide additional shading.
.9
EMC Guidelines
All Nauticomp Displays and accessories are designed to the best industry standards for use in the
rugged electronic environment. The design and manufacture conforms to the appropriate
Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) standards (Section 1.4.5 refers), but correct installation is
required to ensure that performance is not compromised. Although every effort has been taken to
ensure that they will perform under all conditions, it is important to understand what factors could
affect the operation of the product. The guidelines given here describe the conditions for optimum
EMC performance, but it is recognized that it may not be possible to meet all of these conditions in all
situations. To ensure the best possible conditions for EMC performance within the constraints imposed
by any location, always ensure the maximum separation possible between different items of electrical
equipment.
For optimum EMC performance, it is recommended that where ever possible Nauticomp Displays and
cables connected should be:
2.9.1 At least 3 ft (1 m) from any equipment transmitting or cables carrying radio signals e.g.
HF radios, cables and antennas. In the case of SSB radios, the distance should be
increased to 7 ft (2 m).
2.9.2 More than 7 ft (2 m) from the path of a radar beam. A radar beam can normally be
assumed to spread above and below the radiating element.
2.9.3 Supplied from a separate battery from that used for engine start. oltage drops below
10 , and starter motor transients, can cause the equipment to reset and or cause the
loss of some information and may change the operating mode.
2.9.4 Used with Nauticomp specified cables. Cutting and rejoining (Splice) these cables can
compromise EMC performance and must be avoided.
NOTE:
If a suppression ferrite is attached to a cable; this ferrite should not be removed.
