2 Installation
The installation includes 6 major steps:
1. Read the installation and operation manual.
2. Plan where to install the transducer and instrument.
3. Install the transducer, then the instrument.
4. Run the cables.
5. Take a break and admire your installation.
6. Learn the functions and calibrate your instrument.
Before you begin drilling... think about how you can make the installation
as neat and simple as your boat will allow. Plan where to position the
instrument. Think about leaving space for additiona instruments in the
future.
A few ”do not’s” you should consider:
- Do not cut cables too short. Allow extra cable length at the instrument so it
can be removed for inspection without having to disconnect attached
cables.
Do not place sealant behind the instrument. The instrument gasket
eliminates the need for sealant.
Do not run cables close to fluorescent light sources, engine or radio
transmitting equipment to avoid electrical disturbances.
Do not rush, take your time. A neat installation is easy to do.
The following material is needed:
Wire cutters and strippers.
Large Philips and small flat head screw driver.
