Access Under Mounting describes when you can route the cable down
through the mounting surface.
For Best Performance: Mount the receiver in an area that provides full
exposure to the sky. The effective area of reception is 10° above the horizon,
facing south. It is also important to separate the receiver at least 3 feet from the
control head.
1. Determine the best location to mount, then
test route the 20’ (6 m) cable from the
Humminbird
®
control head to the planned
mounting location of the AS WX 1 Satellite
Weather Receiver.
NOTE: 10’ extension cables may be purchased from
Humminbird® if your planned cable route exceeds 20’
(6 m). Maximum cable length, including extension
cables, should not exceed 50’ (16 m). Visit our web site
at www.humminbird.com, or call our Customer
Resource Center at 1-800-633-1468 to purchase
extension cables.
2. Mark the mounting location and drill a
3/4” (19 mm) hole for the cable and cable
connector. Route the cable.
3. Cover the cable hole with the AS WX 1
Satellite Weather Receiver. Make sure the
receiver is flush against the surface and mark
the two mounting holes with a pencil or awl.
4. Move the receiver to the side and drill two
pilot holes, using a 5/32” (4 mm) bit.
NOTE: Apply marine-grade silicone caulk or sealant to both screw and drilled holes
as needed to protect your boat from water damage.
