2. Prepare for Installation
1. The trolling motor should be in the fully retracted (flat) position on the boat deck
for this installation.
2. Disconnect the motor from all sources of electrical power.
3. Test run the Ethernet cable from the chosen mounting location on the trolling
motor to the control head or ethernet switch. Test run the power cable from the
chosen mounting location on the trolling motor to the main switch or fuse panel.
It is important to consider the following:
• The MEGA Live Imaging TargetLock is powered separately from the control
head. It must be connected to a switch where it can be powered on when the
boat is underway and powered off when it is docked.
• The cables should be routed through an established routing system on the
boat, in an area with minimal interference, without sharp edges, obstacles, or
obstructions that may damage the cables.
• The cables will move with the trolling motor when it is deployed and retracted,
so it is important to allow enough length for movement.
