Camera conversion module

The Raymarine A80760 (CCU) camera conversion module is a key component of the NeuBoat Dock 360° peripheral vision system. It processes and converts video signals from dedicated cameras so they can be interpreted by the object recognition unit (ORU) and displayed on compatible LightHouse™ 4 multifunction displays. Its function is to generate a 360° panoramic view to assist with harbour manoeuvres.

No, the NeuBoat Dock system, which includes the A80760 module, is designed solely to enhance situational awareness and visibility around the vessel. It does not replace the captain’s attention and judgment, who must always maintain full control of the boat and its movements.

The NeuBoat Dock system is a visual aid and has certain limitations:

There may be blind spots where obstacles are not detected.Objects displayed may appear farther away than they actually are.Lighting and weather conditions (low light, fog, heavy rain) can affect its performance.Cameras must be kept clean and unobstructed at all times.The system must not be used if any camera is damaged.

The Raymarine A80760 module complies with several international standards and regulations:

ISED Canada (ICES-003 Issue 7, ICES-Gen Issue 1)
FCC Title 47 CFR Part 15.103(a) for exempt devices
European Directive 2014/30/EU on electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
UK Statutory Instrument 2016 No 1091
Its compliance is attested by the harmonized standard EN 60945: 2002-08 (including Corrigendum 1 of 2008).

The Raymarine A80760 camera conversion module processes video feeds from cameras to generate a 360° panoramic view around the vessel. This enhanced view helps the captain better assess the surroundings during harbour manoeuvres, reducing the risk of collision with other vessels, docks, or other obstacles.

Yes, the NeuBoat Dock system, including the A80760 module, requires calibration after installation to ensure optimal operation and accurate representation of the vessel's surroundings. Calibration instructions are detailed in the system documentation.

The NeuBoat Dock system uses an optical camera system. Therefore, lighting and weather conditions, such as low light, fog, heavy rain, or snow, may affect system performance. Without adequate light or visibility, the system will not operate correctly.

The Raymarine A80760 camera conversion module is compatible with Raymarine multifunction displays that support LightHouse™ 4 software.

The Raymarine A80760 camera conversion module is designed to operate on a 12 or 24 Volt direct current (V dc) power supply.

The A80760 module is designed to integrate specifically with Raymarine's NeuBoat Dock 360° system and uses dedicated SVM cameras (R70990). It is not stated to be compatible with cameras from other brands.

For optimal operation, the NeuBoat Dock system requires ORU software version v1.4.0 and CCU version v1.1.5.0 or later. This information is based on May 2024 documentation.

Installation by an approved installer is recommended for the A80760 module. Certified installation may also qualify for enhanced product warranty benefits.

The A80760 module must be powered by the vessel’s electrical system, using a 12 V or 24 V DC power source. It is essential that the power source is charged by the vessel’s engine during normal operation to ensure a constant supply and avoid any risk.

Yes, an inline fuse is required for the power supply connection of the A80760 camera conversion module (CCU). The fuse and thermal circuit breaker ratings are specified in the system installation manual.

Yes, it is important to follow general wiring guidelines, particularly regarding cable type and length, routing, strain relief, shielding, and the use of suppression ferrites. It is also crucial to ensure the vessel's power is turned off before connecting or disconnecting the equipment.

Localization requirements for the Camera Conversion Unit (CCU) and the Object Recognition Unit (ORU) are detailed in the installation manual. It is important to select a location that complies with these guidelines to ensure proper operation and system performance, particularly regarding safety distances from compasses and EMC installation directives.

Firmware updates for the A80760 module are performed using a MicroSD card. Insert the MicroSD card containing the update into the appropriate adapter of the camera conversion unit (CCU) or the object recognition unit (ORU), depending on the component to be updated.

Before starting installation of the A80760 module, it is essential to ensure that the vessel's electrical power is turned off. Never connect or disconnect the equipment when power is active unless explicitly stated otherwise in the installation document.

Yes, the A80760 module, as part of the NeuBoat Dock system, must be properly grounded. Connecting the ground wire of the power cable is essential for the safety and proper operation of the product.

The Raymarine A80760 Camera Conversion Unit (CCU) module is specifically designed to work with Raymarine multifunction displays (MFDs) compatible with the LightHouse™ 4 operating system.

This module is a key component of the NeuBoat Dock 360° peripheral vision system. It manages and converts signals from dedicated cameras, which are then processed by the object recognition unit (ORU) and displayed as a 360° panoramic view on your LightHouse™ 4 MFD. For the NeuBoat Dock system to function and display video information correctly, a Raymarine MFD running LightHouse™ 4 is required.
