A. Stem Mount with 1"-14 Thread
Use the following instructions to stem mount the Sensor.
WARNING!
Do NOT mount the Sensor to a stem
mount or antenna pole that contains ferrous metals.
NOTE:
It is important to review the mounting
considerations and test run the cable route as
indicated in Section 1 before proceeding with the
installation.
1.
If you have a pre-existing stem mount,
skip to
step 2.
If you need to mount the antenna pole (stem)
,
mark the chosen mounting location and drill a
3/4" (19 mm) hole for the cable and cable
connector.
If you have purchased hardware to stem
mount your Sensor,
follow the instructions
included with that hardware to attach the stem
to the boat.
2. Screw the Sensor base onto the stem first,
making sure that the stem pipe does not
protrude from the Sensor base. (This adds
protection to the cable when it is pulled through
the pipe stem.) Deburr the pipe edges to reduce
cable abrasion.
3. Use electrical tape to secure the NMEA pigtail
to the cable.
Unless it is needed, leave the NMEA pigtail
secured to the cable. If you are connecting the
pigtail to a NMEA 0183 device, see
Section 3:
Connect to the Control Head
for connection
information.
