The BM-50 is primarily designed for wall mounting. Connectors should always face down
(towards the ground) as shown in figure to achieve optimal positioning accuracy with
built-in antennas. Unless an external GPS antenna with an extension cable (optional, not
included) is used, other orientations of the device will cause poorer satellite reception and
will lower the positioning precision. The sky view above the device or GPS antenna with
extension cable should not be obstructed with any metal objects, pipes or conductors.
The BM-50 device should be installed in a dry location away from direct contact with water
and should not be exposed to direct sunlight. Operating temperatures above 50 degrees
Celsius may lead to irregular operation and damage to internal components of the Boat
Monitor. It is important to follow these guidelines to ensure the proper functioning and
longevity of the BM-50 device.
NOTE! Depending on the type of installation (eg. factory installation,
retrofit, independent professional) there might be different options
available on this screen.
10. To activate the Sentinel BM, follow the instructions to input the
activation code
11. Enter the 6-digit activation PIN code (found on the device or in the
installation manual)
NOTE! It might take up to 2 hours for the device to start sending data to the
cloud. Make sure that during this period a stable power supply is available.
