Transom Mount Intelliducer Installation Instructions
Install the Intelliducer
To install the Transom Mount Intelliducer:
1. Assemble the Intelliducer.
2. Mount the Intelliducer.
3. Connect the Intelliducer your existing NMEA 2000 network.
OR
Connect the Intelliducer to power and a NMEA 0183-compatible device.
4. Update your Garmin chartplotter (if applicable).
Step 1: Assemble the Intelliducer
To assemble the Intelliducer:
1. Insert the rubber washer and
the plastic spacer into the
Intelliducer at the same time.
DO NOT lubricate the rubber
washer.
2. Route the NMEA 2000 or
power/data cable toward
the back of the Intelliducer.
Slide the Intelliducer into the
Intelliducer mount.
3. Place the 5 mm flat washer on the 10-32 × 1.75 in. screw, and insert the screw through the
Intelliducer mount, the spacer, and the rubber washer.
4. Place the remaining 5 mm flat washer on the exposed end of the 10-32 × 1.75 in. screw.
Install the 10-32 locknut finger tight. Retighten the Intelliducer after installation on the boat.
Step 2: Mount the Intelliducer
When selecting a transom-mount location, consider the following for optimal performance:
For your sonar to operate properly, the Intelliducer must be located in calm water.
Mount the Intelliducer as close to the center of the boat as possible.
DO NOT mount the Intelliducer in locations where it might be jarred when launching,
hauling, or storing.
DO NOT mount the Intelliducer in the path of the propeller on single-drive boats. The
Intelliducer can cause cavitation that can degrade the performance of the boat and damage
the propeller. On twin-drive boats, mount the Intelliducer between the drives, if possible.
NOTE:
DO NOT mount the Intelliducer behind strakes, struts, fittings, water intake or discharge
ports, or anything that creates air bubbles or causes the water to become turbulent. The Intelliducer
must be in clean (non-turbulent) water for optimal performance.
