7.3. Keypad Mounting (Optional)

Note: The Keypad is not necessary for the operation of Seakeeper Ride. All Keypad controls can be found on the MFD application. Prior to cutting and drilling, ensure no objects are behind the surface that you do not intend to cut during the procedure.

  1. Trace Mounting Holes. Find and print the full-scale template of the Keypad to assist with tracing HERE, verifying the printed size is correct (the square is 2.25 in. X 2.25 in. [57.2 mm X 57.2 mm]). Tape the template in the desired mounting location. This will be used to create the square cutout for the Keypad to be inserted into.
  2. Drill Holes. Drill 1/4 in. holes through the mounting surface in each corner of the square. Hole locations are shown on the template by the circles in the corners.
  3. Cut Lines. Using a jigsaw or oscillating tool, cut along the remaining perimeter of the solid square.
  4. Mount Keypad. Thread the provided stud onto the Keypad. Screw the M8 Wing Nut onto the stud, leaving room to accommodate the Mounting Bracket between the Keypad and Wing Nut. Align the Keypad so the Logo is at the bottom, facing the vessel operator. Slide the Keypad Mounting Bracket onto the stud between the Wing Nut and the Keypad. Tighten the Wing Nut to hold the bracket in place.
