6. Connecting the Transducer Cable
Connect the transducer cable to the transducer connector on the HDR 610.
NOTE:
The connector is keyed to prevent reverse installation, so be careful not to force the
plug into the connector the wrong way.
7. Connecting to the Power Supply
Use the following information to connect your HDR 610 to an appropriate power supply:
• If your boat has an electrical system, there is probably a fuse panel in the console
area that can be used to attach the HDR 610 power cable.
• If a fuse terminal is available, use crimp-on type electrical connectors (not included)
that match the terminal on the fuse panel, and attach the black wire to ground, and
the red wire to 12 VDC power. You must use a 1-Amp fuse in the connection.
• 36" of power cable is included; you may shorten or lengthen this cable using
18-gauge, multi-strand copper wire.
CAUTION:
Some boats have 24 or 36 Volt electrical systems. Make sure that your HDR 610 is
connected to a 12 VDC power supply. Use a voltage conditioner for variable inputs.
NOTE:
Humminbird® is not responsible for over-voltage or over-current failures. The control head must have
adequate protection through the proper selection and installation of a 1 amp fuse.
1a. If a fuse terminal is available, use crimp-on type electrical connectors (not included) that match the
terminal on the fuse panel. Attach the black wire to ground (-), and the red wire to positive (+)
12 VDC power. Install a 1 amp fuse (not included) for protection of the unit. Humminbird® is not
responsible for over-voltage of over-current failures.

1b. If you need to wire the HDR 610 directly to a battery, obtain and install an inline fuse holder and
a 1 amp fuse (not included) for the protection of the unit. Humminbird® is not responsible for
overvoltage or overcurrent failures.
