individual connections, their functions, as well as any wiring or mating connection information.
2.4.1
Channel 1 Transducer
The Transducer connection transfers the high voltage transmit output signal to the transducer as well as the return echo
to the echosounder. CAUTION: Make sure that the Chirp 3260 is not transmitting while connecting or disconnecting
the transducer(s) to the Transducer connector.
